Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[engineerVOL]

Maybe but man if I was him I wouldn't try to fit in and learn a new system, etc, chances are you aren't going to help your stock that way.

Can he hurt his stock?

 

[bignewt]

Can he hurt his stock?

Sure he can. He could get hurt or not perform well.

I'm about to express a very unpopular opinion. As much as I would love to see Justin Fields transfer to Tennessee, IF he were to decide to transfer(which I doubt he will), LSU seems like a more logical choice. Given the success of Joe Burrow, and that LSU is still loaded at WR, it just makes more sense.

If Fields problem was with Kirby and not Chaney, then he could team up with Chaney, in an offense he’s already been exposed to, and go beat Kirby’s ass. We have a couple things going for us. I doubt he transfers, but it will definitely be an interesting few days/weeks concerning B1G and PAC players trying to transfer

Uhh or we look at it as why wouldn’t recruits want to come to a University that actually lives and breaths football.... or maybe we could just take your doom and gloom outlook.....

My view is hardly doom and gloom. I’m just saying that if we don’t play this Fall it may be beneficial to our recruiting class vs getting skulldrug by our competition yet again. Always look on the bright side of life.

In what world did the Big 10 or Pac 12 think they are doing more for their athletes than the SEC.

This is the SEC.

Take a walk.

Thanks Tony!

It actually does seem sort of a doom and gloom post if you are saying if we play in the fall we will get skulldrug by our opponents. Sounds pretty gloomy to me.

Being at OSU surrounded by top 100 players playing against bad teams versus playing in the SEC.... Might not turn out too well. But some really do like to compete. Plus maybe for him he still isn't over CKS. So with us it would be what he thinks of CJC.

Well, to his credit he does have an arm.

Thanks Jimmy moment but indulge me. Listening to the 5th year senior DE at tOSU and their recent top 30 decommit from Texas, I’ll go against my usual modus operandi and state that if Larry Johnson were to become available, I’d campaign to throw 2 mil a year (or more...not my money) at him and beg him to join Rocky Top. These players don’t mention Day or the university...they sorrowfully address Coach Johnson. That’s brand loyalty I don’t think even Rodney Garner has attained.

What are they saying?

Tunmise did mention tOSU but almost as an addendum.

Your material has been lacking lately. Really disappointed.

I was reading on the Nebraska board that it would be incredibly short sighted to leave. It would end up costing them too much money. I think they are judt going to have to accept it.

They've been getting north of $50 million a year from the Big 10. Big 12 teams are pulling in far less.

not an accurate one.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I hope every coward conference burns to the ground. I hate it for true die hard fans of teams. They deserve to be treated better than this betrayal.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Do what? Shuler was a great athlete, all around better QB, better passer. Heath is my all time fav Vol.

Cmon man. Dobbs was like having an elite RB at QB. He was deceptively fast and couldnt be tackled.

Dobbs had to run because of how poor the O-Line was under Butch.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I also hope every talented HS kid in America is bright enough to see how the players at these schools have been betrayed by these pathetic PoS conference and university leaders.

I hope this stupidity costs them forever.

Me and @Catbone at the Vol Family Gathering when some says JG deserves a Johnny Unitas Award.

I was almost finished reading this article when I realized Pete Thamel authored it, and then I died a little inside for reading an article Pete Thamel authored.

 

[keenobserver]

Sorry young whipper snappers, Dobbs is an all time great Vol and fan favorite, but he couldn't hold Heath Shuler's jock strap.
