Ed Dawn
Posted by HenryJames on October 21st, 2009 under Football, Recruiting
Recruits in Atlanta thought they would be protected from Ed Orgeron by traffic and the confusion that results in putting the word ‘peach’ in every fucking street name, and there are actually some places that you can’t get to even in a Hummer. But Orgeron won’t be denied. He’s flying over Atlanta’s sprawl and landing right outside players’ schools. In a helicopter apparently piloted by Wade Boggs.
”
The best part is that Tennessee almost didn’t go through with it when they found out that it cost over $4,000 to rent a helicopter. Is that a lot? Anyway, they found someone willing to low bid and got that magnificent piece of shit you see above for only $1,250.
No matter. Orgeron will now be wrecking shit all across the South.

Going into the game you would have thought the battle would have been a classic matchup between West Virginia’s frontcourt and Villanova’s backcourt.
The only question is which team could impose their will and dictate the mismatch. Villanova might try to do it by pressing and playing up tempo. West Virginia’s

‘”It appears to be McFarland out of El Paso. I would like to see Texas get him. :”
El Paso alert, El Paso alert! Andre Jones and Trips are from El Paso. Think about that for a minute.

Dam, I was just going to post the same shit.
OT and DB are the most important postions. OT we need Westerman, Haverty and Drango/Greenlea/Cochran. What do we know about Cochran?

We know Junior Day #1 is this Saturday. There’s flux in regard to who will and won’t be on the roster come the 2010 season, but let’s assume the numbers don’t really matter, as a whole bunch of seniors leave after 2010 and attrition will take place as well.
So your number is 25 max.
What positions

Fundamentally on both sides of the ball we are very weak. On defense we are athletic but don’t really understand when to pressure the ball or double team. Many times we over persue at a time when the offensive player is not in a dangerous position and end up giving up an easy

Agreed Mike. The game is just slower for Scottie Reynolds, totally in control. Imagine him last year with Blake Griffin.
Singletary was really effective in the first meeting. He’s been frustrated a little bit the last few games, so I’d like to see him go off without much shot-blocking from the OU front

One piece of good news for the day for the Horns. They picked up a verbal commitment from the number one golfer in the country who is a junior, Jordan Spieth out of Dallas. He will make our team top five or better the day he shows up on campus.

You should watch the NBA more. The center position is extinct. Aldrich will probably play 10 years.
You know the leader in scoring for centers in the NBA?
Chris Kaman.
Not kidding.

It sounds like if you guys can get the rotation and free throws figured out, you’ll be tough to beat in the tourneys. Lord knows I don’t want to see you in the Big XII, and would love you guys make some noise in the Big Dance.

I’ll take Hamilton in the game the rest of the season for 25 minutes a game and we will be a better team in the long run. We must have 5 players who can score to have a chance against the premier teams in the country. I agree that he will have to

Best BC headline in some time–well done.
If they wanted to, they could defray the expense of the helicopter by dropping coupons for the Knoxville Krogers® as they go.
Just an idea.

Tennessee’s football team is not relevant this season, so coaches have to resort to stuff like this in order to remain in the headlines. Now if really wanted to get attention, they would replace Ed with a young Lea Thompson look-a-like.

You gotta admit, this is right up the SEC’s alley. You can’t impress street agents with better rims on a 1984 Cadillac, but I bet you sure can with a whirlybird that used to be Ponch’s eye in the sky on Chips. The only way to one-up it is by hiring this candidate as our recruiting coordinator:

Eh. They’re already well on their way to a top five recruiting class this year, and they’ve got a couple of top recruits for 2011 already committed.
Orgeron is to recruiting what Muschamp is to defensive coaching. I wouldn’t question the man.
