Recruiting Forum Football Talk IX

Barton Simmons actually said they have everything it takes to be national contenders every year

......in Chess, Debate, or Robotics competitions?

Yes I know I lean to the right and have never been into tall small breasted ladies, but Sophia Cunningham is gorgeous, except the whole Missouri thing, Go Vols!!!!!

If there’s a one girl in the WNBA, I would love to hit with a dildo you guessed it so cute

Sophia

 

[LaagerVol]

Yes, I agree. Well…..except for talent. But other than that totally. Definitely a national title contender.

And the facilities. And the fanbase.

Our linebacker corp could be one of the best in the country. I think Telander is being slept on.

If he nods then Spillman will be there like a bull in a china shop. Seriously, we are talented and deep, and getting deeper each class. I can’t wait to see this defense tbh, what Heup has/is doing on the defensive side of the ball is nothing short of magnificent. If he brings in a Corey Redmond once Willie retires it would rival those Bama/UGA championship defenses. Got to get to the point the Turrentines of the world don’t start in your defensive backfield. Combay and Wyatt will fix that though.

This is true, but I don't believe it's what they are arguing. They receive 9.3% of revenue while the NBA (and all other major league men's sports) receive a roughly 50% split of league revenues.

I don't really watch and don't know their financials. Yes, the league makes significantly less. I think they just want more of "what the league does make." They aren't asking for a salary like an NBA All-Star.

What the league‘s revenue is does not equal what they make(profit).

Expenses will be a larger percentage of revenue for the WNBA As it costs a lot for the stadium and transportation, hotel, food, etc… vs their revenue.

Post your % as of profit and not revenue and the answer maybe the WNBA players have been making too much.

When the women soccer players wanted to make as much as the men, the truth was men’s soccer federation was already making up for the money the women were losing.

Gotta feeling he’s going to eat into PLew carries, I hope I’m wrong and PLew is RB1. But Bishop has that look in his eye and determination. Every man knows the look, he’s determined to be RB1. We’ll see how it shakes out.

That was Star Thomas

It’s going to be very good. And I hope Spillman plays more than Telander. Can’t teach speed. But it’s a good problem to have with all the athleticism in that room.

I'm not sure why you would want that. Would probably mean Telander is injured. Spillman will play, but Telander is the leader of the LB room. I think we're going to see that early on.

I'd also bet Telander is faster and significantly better than last year.

So, this appears they are just kind of re-branding the weekly shows. Pretty sure Mike Keith hosted a Titans call-in show for years. So, I don’t he’s immune to it. They are just doing new things including the recent news of partnering with local tv stations across the state. It’s actually greater access.

While some of these changes may be a bummer, I’ve been to 2 Big Orange Caravans in the last 4 years. Heupel and Barnes don’t shy away from people. I’m amazed at their interactions and how they are very personable, even to kids. Give it a try if you haven’t been.

Either way, all three will play a lot. Telander's speed scares me, but he's a smart football player and I think that will make up for it. Spillman has the highest ceiling to me.

It's going to be pretty easy for them, since no one will be able to block our front 7...

Listening to Garner praise Dom Bailey as the MVP...already knowing how good Eason is, Moi is and Josh Joseph's.

Herring is where he wants to be physically now. More confident. Ross has bought in and focuses on recovery because of how hard he plays. Tyree Weathersby is apparently that dude. Then everyone else with those stud freshman are fighting for spots. Super deep and talented once again.

Something we haven't discussed: Quinshon Judkins got arrested a few weeks ago while working out a new contract with the Browns... now he's still unsigned and undergoing the legal stuff.

That means the Browns' RBs are Jerome Ford and Dylan Sampson. Ford will probably get the nod as the vet, but Sampson is impressing big time. Looks like a 1A/1B deal. Sampson likely early down back and Ford on 3rd.

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

Only six? Who are they going to beat?

Hopefully Bama in Tuscaloosa.

We're going to be filthy on defense. Even Utley and Campbell are likely to see the field early.

I posted because she is wearing all orange, meaning she hated her Missouri college decision but she would have definitely played for Kim!!!

Wouldn't shock me if Samp is a pro bowler one day. If he gets more involved in the passing game and isn't super beat up all the time he will do it.

Hope we land this kid next cycle...

Dye too probably.

Then you got Jamal Wallace who is a great athlete. Nathan Robinson looks ridiculous in the practice vids. Josh Schnell the junior transfer from D2. Looks like we are coming in waves once again.

 

[orangebloodgmc]

I feel like we are pretty banged up right now for it to only be day 6 of fall camp.

Brazzel- has not practiced yet
MM- limited
Staley- missed back to back

McCoy- has not practiced yet
R. Gibson- missed today
Joshua Josephs - missed 3 in a row

And yet, if one keeps up with any other SEC team, as I do, they would see the same kind of concerns and precautions.

This is what Vandy bigmouth is bragging about.

I wonder if no Vol Calls has more to do with what Mike Keith wants?

I’m fine with the decision
