Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

Oh no in before 85 Sugar comes on and screams "KEEP POLITICS OUT OF RF!" (but I agree I say nervously watching out for 85)

What?

Just getting caught up after work and I must say it’s amazing to see Liverpool fans complaining about the behavior of another fan base. I mean it’s just stupid.

You must have had a rough day at work. Sorry about that.

My post was clearly about European football in general. I posted a supporting article of Liverpool fans being attacked, not one fanbase’s ethical superiority over another. Sorry if that set you off somehow

I'm gonna go ahead and say it, if we had Dobbs right now, we would have AT LEAST one more in the W column right now and the back end of the season would look brighter... Guys, whether you like it or not, we need a running QB until we have an elite O line and/or WR corp if we are going to make noise.... it is what it is...

We beat Florida no question. We would have had a legit game vs Uga

 

[Smokey123]

Just letting it be known I miss Joshua Dobbs as the University of Tennessee’s starting quarterback.

Now back to your regularly scheduled programming

Best UT QB since Manning

 

[nicksjuzunk]

Initial reports are CJ Fuller died due to seizure complications

I have been wanting to ask you guys this and keep forgetting to. Is me or does it seem that Chandler doesn't really get enough running attempts per game? He has been the best RB out of the whole bunch and effective. I don't have the stats but it seems like he only gets about 10 or 12 attempts a game. I know he was hurt in the WV game but just seems like he isn't out on the field that much and to me not utilized as much as he should be. Any way just my thoughts and wanted to see if its just me. I understand that we want to keep throwing fresh backs out there but when someone has been as good effective as he has just thought we would find more ways to get the ball in his hands. Ok, let me hear from my buds from VN!

The Ten State player?

Aww still sad but thanks for clearing that up for me.

I thought it was because of the Oline that they were trying to get the backs in that would "fall forward" like they mentioned in the GA game.

I don't see how that would apply to Chandler since he for me has been the best back of them all.

Nope

 

[drvenner]

Wow, interesting to see JG move up 6 spots

Fitzgerald at 13th is accurate and surreal at the same time.

 

[drvenner]

There was another report that his body was noticeably changing and he was progressing

Still in puberty? Wow!

 

[drvenner]

Tell your cousin that VolNation gave him thousands of votes. His only real competition was Dawson Williams who caught 5 passes for 3 TDs but the thing with your cousin was unlike Williams he wasn't the intended receiver. Three interceptiions is much more impressive than 5 receptions.

Wow. The dude that rushed for over 400 yards got less than 1%of the vote.

 

[Smokey123]

Nope

Yes lol

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Baylen is just as bad as Micah is

Sadly true..

 

[SmokinBob]

If you can set aside or ignore the political angle, I found this very interesting from a love of football and football history angle. Also has some relevance to recent discussions in here regarding football injuries, leather helmets, etc.

Football and the American Character

I enjoyed that article, and learned a few things. Thank you for sharing.

Just when I think i couldn’t love Mike Leach any more than I already do....

Y'all about got me half way thinking he would have worked here lol. I still question whether or not he could recruit well enough to really build a contender.

To me, that really is the only question. In most other ways, I think he could have succeeded here.

That's 'cause, VolNation.

That makes me love Leach even more. I’m all for Pruitt, but I would have loved to see what Leach could do here. He’s probably my favorite college coach outside of Pruitt and has been since his UK days.

Mad respect for him. How Craig James (and relatedly ESPN) got him fired is a travesty.
