Recruiting Forum Football Talk IX

[508mikey]

Probably slim to none. I’m sure we are already making preparations to play the season without him.

predicted 9th - can finish 9th without him - so who cares about him now

 

[Adam Sandler]

Seriously though, I'm not sweating anything until the season starts and we see what happens. If we lose games, then your damn right I'm going to be a pissy bitch about it. You have been warned.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

0-12 sounds good to me


I HATE ALABAMA

I want them to enjoy a slow painful ride down to the pits of despair where they can stay for decades.

So I heard Swain talking about the Boo situation while I was out to the doctor. Apparently, Boo is now represented by Omar Cooper. Cooper also represents Ace Bailey and was the one who told Utah not to draft him, only for Utah to draft him and call his bluff. Apparently, the guy is full of bad advice. Swain wasn't sure if Boo had burned all of his bridges or not. Mentioned Boo would probably need to give a sincere apology to his teammates to work things out. So personally, I'm not sure what to make of everything, but I'm willing to meet Omar Cooper at the Papermill Waffle House.

I made this in April. Red was gone, Yellow was injured.

Somehow it's gotten worse...

Mark Richt has lost control of Willie Martinez’s db room. Again.

I'd rather watch a dog lick its privates

Bubba and Earl are sitting on the front porch drinking a beer when Earl's dog starts licking himself. Bubba says: "Man, I wish I could do that." Earl: "That dog would bite you!"

 

[Jackcrevol]

I really don't care if he does. I'd like to see what he can do, but the constant drama is tiring. I'd much rather see the guys who show up every day and work for the the playing time they get.

we can all agree there. recruiting has to get better, but at some point you have to think Georgia, Turds, Bama all deal with pre madonnas.

 

[25vol]

I’m not up on the latest transfer rules. When is the next portal window and can a player transfer over the next 6 weeks and still play this Fall?

He’s not a grad so he can’t transfer until the next window which will most likely be in December.

 

[RandomUTfan]

It really feels like whatever is going on behind the scenes, it's been overblown in public.

 

[Cosmo Kramer]

Per Ben McKee:

This is all on Boo Carter and his camp. Their priorities are all out of whack. Tennessee — both coaches and players — are attempting to hold him accountable for his actions, but it doesn't sound like Carter has responded appropriately to it.

I hope all of these sleazeball agents get theirs one day. The NCAA can go to hell too for being ultimately responsible for it all. They prey on these young men, who many come from disadvantaged families, and get in their ear and sow discontent. This sport is being ruined by this and all anyone’s done for 5 years now is wonder who’s going to fix it.

you would have to get his fat gut away from the table before he would fight

That’s my shocked face

 

[VFLBerg]

I think I read Retzlaff (from BYU) is a grad transfer so the rules are different for him but IDK

He isn't a grad transfer according to two media reports I read.

NCAA almost needs to require a license to serve as an agent for student athletes. Requires classes and such and say athletes cannot be represented by an agent who is not approved by the NCAA. And charge a phat fee for agents to get approved.

That where theres a professional and operational standard for communication and advising from NCAA and school collectives to athletes/agents.

Also requires collectives to be approved so athletes and schools and donors don't get screwed by sleezeballs.

Pedro Pascal is a creep.


That is all.

[25vol]

Yup

Yup. Want to fix anything like this quick first you gotta take the money out of it. It shouldn’t be this freaking profitable to help a college kid find a new school. I understand it’s all a business, but these agents very clearly have never had the players best interests in mind, never mind the sport itself.

Omar drives a Rolls Royce..lol..like taking candy from a baby..

or maybe those are Randy Rhodes seats..lol

 

[JacketVol]

Basilio’s summary of the Boo situation doesn’t sound terrible. Player leadership is frustrated because Boo is mailing it in. Not showing up to workouts, meetings, etc. Apparently this was an issue last season with Pearce also just going through the motions. It’s why his season wasn’t as impressive as many expected, and why he sat out a half at one point. Some guys get a little money and take their foot off the gas. The players don’t want to see a repeat and are trying to get Boo to correct it.

In my opinion it seems very fixable but will be determined by Carter.

People get a little money from some good commissions and then get lazy and wonder where it all went. Boo is not an NFL lock. He better get to work.

I'll call in a hot and ready cheese too

 

[DD4ME]

Did VQ have any backlash for reporting like Basilio has?

They would, but apparently $9.99 is the only internet filter you need.

 

[csprig9]

Apparently swain just said on his show boo mom called out the staff on instagram reply
Someone said maybe it’s a coaching problem when referring to Nico leaving and now boos trouble and she said finally someone said it


See ya boo
Don’t let the door hit you in the ass on the way out

JD has UT going 9-3 with losses to Georgia, Alabama, and Oklahoma (doesn’t think UT can keep up offensively in this game).
