Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[volbeast33]

On the VQ podcast, AP said that Wideman is not a factor at all on this team.

"Wideman is not a factor. He is so far down the depth chart right now it is not even funny. He can't even get into a practice."

I thought he was hurt.

Man... we are bleeding in recruiting

It's March. Recruiting was always going to suffer but it's too early to say for sure. Recruiting doesn't matter until December.

Can’t even get into practice? What does this even mean?

Spring, whatever.

Quit making fun of an old man.

AP has been smoking the players stash.

Well he doesn’t have to worry about getting beat up anymore.

He does have a punchable face.

I feel like we've been saying this about UT players in the NFL for about 10 years...

Van Earl Wright before he went south.

He is my pastor’s brother. Last I heard he was working with Turner Sports.

Would have been nice of they gave more of an advanced notice.

True, but understand that this has nothing to do with the fans. They want a practice where recruits can watch, and this is the only way they can currently allow that.

That ended in 2018. He was a producer for WSB-TV and is now the director for some web content show.

Anybody heard from @Weezer ? I haven't seen him post in a while.

Albeit one article and point of view but it validates his hiring. After the hire, I always thought if you were to attach both coaching and playing accolades to resumes with no names many would gravitate to Hype’s for coaches with a similar tenure.

Agreed. My wife is 9 months pregnant, so it doesn’t do me good anyway.

Wow...had some high hopes for him this season. Thought he would be the go up and get it WR.

Didn't mean my response in any way, just a genuine answer. Sorry if it came of in a way. Only meant that automated 24/7 workers would/should mean lower prices...basically equivalent to slave labor.

I'm not a luddite economist type. Those people have been around ever since the industrial revolution, maybe earlier. The "such-and-such productivity gains = no jobs" panic crowd. Yet new industries always seem to emerge to support the new economic infrastructure. Imagine telling farmers in 1700 that only 1-2% of Americans would be farmers in the future. No way they could imagine such an existence being viable.

Now, to say exactly what it will look like...I have no idea and I'm not going to pretend to know what a much more automated workforce economy in 50 years will look like, just as those in 1970 had no idea how computerized everything would change things now by 2020. My guess would be work hours will decrease. Taxes on robotic workers will fund minimum basic income. Just random thoughts from me...who knows? Maybe it's worse, maybe a lot better. I only know that it's inevitable.

Fwiw, I do worry it could exacerbate economic inequalities, which I think is core to your concern as well.

It's only inevitable if it is allowed. Nobody working means nobody has money to buy the cheap crap your stupid robots build. I am a Luddite...It is getting out of hand. What made the post war western world great was people making good wages and buying stuff.

Was never jazzed about Fleck. Would’ve offered Napier then Chadwell.

I'm not writing the kid off. He has AMAZING body control and his catch radius is huge. Not sure why it isn't clicking for him, but we'll see.

We’re the capitol for kids who won’t develop. It’s very odd.
