Recruiting Forum Football Talk IX

Ok. So who’d win 01 Miami vs 95 Nebraska?

Nebraska. That Miami team was really, really good though. IMO that game woild come down to coaching and Osbourne was 100x better than Coker ever was.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

I would love nothing more than to cruise and beat Syracuse by double digits. I think that’s going to be a 4 quarter game unfortunately.

If thats the case then we have taken a major step backward and will be in for a let down season.

Anyone know who the QB was that Hood picked off while defending Matthews? Either way, I’m excited to see Hood this season!

I didn't see a single dropped pass. Questioning errythang.

 

[Glitch]

Good positioning...looked back for the ball...Nope, I don't like it.

 

[Glitch]

This thread seems fresher and less matted today....What has changed?

 

[VOLINVONORE]

Maybe, maybe not. Our running game will help get our receivers open We will not drop many balls during the season and we will score more points this year than we did last year. We go 10-2 or 9-3 during the regular season.

That was a 10 win team a season ago that went 3-1 vs top 25 teams. Helps that McCord is gone.

Aug. 3, 1987:



Joe Niekro's on the mound in Anaheim, pitching for the Twins against the Angels. He throws a slider that breaks the laws of physics. When plate umpire Tim Tschida visits the mound to have a look, an emery board flies out of Niekro's pocket. Niekro's also carrying a small piece of sandpaper "contoured to fit a finger," according to second-base ump Steve Palermo.

Niekro's ejected and suspended for 10 days. "The guy was so blatant," said Palermo. "It was like a guy walking down the street carrying a bottle of booze during Prohibition." Niekro denied any wrongdoing, arguing that as a knuckleballer, he needed the emery board to file his fingernails. And the sandpaper? "Sometimes I sweat a lot, and the emery board gets wet," he explained. "And I'll also use the paper for small blisters."

We had tickets to see Billy Joel play with Stevie Nicks this fall, but, alas, his illness struck. Steely Dan was one of my fave bands back in college days. Call me Kid Charlemagne. We saw them open for the Eagles 2 years ago. Nothing left of the original band(s) except Donald Fagen, but I loved seeing him. Walter Becker would have still been there when you saw them. The Eagles were amazing.

Was Vince Gill playing with The Eagles?

Amazing. As long as Donald or Michael are there, it's going to be great.

What's wild to me is how humble, even thinking he didn't belong, Michael Mcdonald appears to be in the documentary. And yet he's a major cornerstone of the entire genre.

 

[RikidyBones]

Mike matthews on the sideline for another fall camp. The dude stays injured so he doesn't have to get injured. Smh.

 

[Devo182]

Aguilar has been here for 3 practices so far…

Fair enough.

I think of routes on air as transferrable, but to your point maybe our routes and WR speed is not something he's accustomed to.

Still hoping someone...anyone...runs away with the job. I wouldn't say this is a heavyweight battle, so hopefully someone can really separate themselves from the field in the next month.

A bit surprised G-Mac isn't more in the conversation as well, but that's tough as a true freshman.

I get the perception, similar to playing WV, Pitt...

But they were 10-3 and 2-0 vs ranked opponents last year.

Cuse is solid. Imo it does go into the last 10 minutes, but we also win by double digits and pull away. No heart attack moments in the last couple mins.

Not surprised that you don’t have much faith in this team.

The only solution: expansion. By turning Neyland into the largest stadium in the sport of American football, Danny white can increase attendance and decrease the price of admission. It must be done.

 

[JCVol00]

I honestly think that it is more likely that merk is the starter week 1

 

[volfaninpa]

Man what happened to Ron Swanson?

 

[RandomUTfan]

I honestly think that it is more likely that merk is the starter week 1

Doubt that. Would love to see it but doubt it happens.

the market absolutely does not suggest this

 

[Adam Sandler]

Ron hasn't posted in 8 months and only sporadically for a while before that.
Has he hung up his keyboard?

Fyp

 

[JCVol00]

Doubt that. Would love to see it but doubt it happens.

So far he’s been with the 1’s for every practice except yesterday’s, and has been more consistent, whereas ja struggled today

 

[Adam Sandler]

Idk. But an under thrown deep ball for once??

Whoever it was is my guy

Gaspipe underthrew one once.

You’d rather over throw than under throw. Theyre probably taught that way. At the end of the day though, you do want a well thrown ball. The more accurate the deep ball, the better the whole offense.

Prove it, commie

Vince Papale was thanks to Greg Kinnear
