Recruiting Forum Football Talk IX

[Lloyd_Christmas]

No thanks. SEC is full. Sunbelt or Big12 might have space.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Same. Are you close to Jonesborough? If so, go to The Buzzed Wings. Some of these best I’ve had in a long time and they have 75 cent wings on Tuesday’s

I wish, wife and I were looking at homes out there last week. My Grandad and his leisure suits used to rock on his front porch In Jboro.

His church was downtown. Grandma was a teacher.

Always wanted to build out near Washington College.

Bummer. The wing joint I was talking about just opened downtown and it is delicious. Wings are the best in the area IMO

I'm not worried about any losers who skip mandatory meetings to play football at 19 and be loaded. See ya.

I don't recall the history of why UNC wasn't in the original SEC, it seems they would've been a natural fit.
But Clemson?

pro wrestling is the absolute worst. well, second behind women's basketball but still ridiculous and worthless.

You just know that on July 6, 1962, somebody/somewhere said, "The Sound and the Fury was a piece of sh!t." And someone nearby, who heard it, thought, "...victory is an illusion of philosophers and fools".

I haven't given much thought to most philosophy in 20 years, so I can't speak properly of it; but, I do have a question. What if you're a fool, newt?

Loved, The Cracks That Held, btw. Ordered, Day Moon Howl, before I was finished. Congratulations on taking a sh!t all over a fan.

Twin Peaks.

mmm, went there last night. Green Apple Jack shot, Dirty blond, and a yum steak salad. I'd sworn off 'breastaurants' but that place is tasty.

They should just started a new conference with teams from the coast. Call it the ECC, or East Coast Conference.

..Atlantic Sports Schools

[RiseToTheTop]

I knew there was something fishy about that character.

Why am I not surprised he's a Floridian?

 

[DD4ME]

We are getting old people

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Twin Peaks.

Today, yes. 25 years ago, Hooters

 

[screenthis]

That's a very good point. Living in Florida for 17 years, all the crazy stories seemed to eminate from there. Peeps in trouble elswhere would flock to Florida.

I'll admit it. If there was a 'betting pool' on which one of those three would live a longer life, I would not have bet on Ozzy. God rest their souls.

 

[Bigorangefaninga]

Tough day

That suit sucks ass, was a time or 2 I was a youngin and wanted to beat someone’s child’s butt for kicking me or pulling the tail!

 

[SmyrnaATLVolisback]

We could, but likely won't

Yikes. I pray that is not the case. It’s getting hard to care anymore real fast.

View attachment 758160

Clemson and NC State are more natural fits in the SEC than SoCar and UNC imo. Here's my logic:

Most of the SEC are land-grants with some exceptions: Vandy, Ole Miss, Bama (however Bama did receive a grant of land from the Feds), Oklahoma, Texas, and South Carolina. All the other SEC schools are Morrill Act schools.

Clemson, Virginia Tech, and NC State are also Morrill Act schools.

If you look at the ACC, they're historically mostly liberal arts and private schools: FSU, Louisville, Miami, GT, Duke, UNC, BC, Pitt, UVA, Syracuse and Wake. Add SMU, Notre Dame, and Stanford to that list.

So for SEC currently: 10 LG/MA, 6 other
ACC: 14 other, 4 LG/MA

I propose a trade: Vandy and SC for Clemson and NC State or VT.

Not saying that’s not true, but people more in the know have suggested it’s not. Swain is not in the know and he’s an overreacter to everything. He only gets clout because he’s a former player. He’s like our version of Greg McElroy, but without as many twitter followers.

Swain is probably the least overreacting guy in the media we have. He’s always the last to call for a job, a starting position, etc. maybe you could say he’s the most critical of receiver play every year, but that’s about it and it makes sense why he would be that way.
