re: Best City To Live In For Golf

Posted by surf23451 on 1/8/24 at 5:38 pm
It all depends. To me it’s year round golf and a good private club. I sort of like the Florence Alabama. Turtle Point is a great private course and still fairly reasonable. RTJ shoals across the river is a fantastic 36 holes with plenty of cheap local options. Waterfront property on the Tennessee river still approachable. About an hour from Huntsville, 2 hrs from Birmingham or Nashville. If you don’t mind playing in the mid 40s you probably have less than 10 days too cold
UClub has some tough greens. There were times I thought I hit a great shot and ended up in trouble. Might get better if I play again

re: Scott Van Pelt picks Arkansas

Van Pellt makes the traditional pick, when the line is unusually low, take the dog. It would be a trap. On road after historic win. Only three point favorite. Ark after embarrassing loss, this is their Super Bowl. Cold weather. I like Kelly to get them prepared, I think they survive the let down
They love O like we do, but didn’t pay enough attention to see his flaws and the collapse after the 19 NC...... We would have all loved if 19 was the beginning of a dynasty, rather than a collapse. What I can’t figure out was 19 just lucky lightning, or did O loose focus after his success. ....probably both

re: Key to beating bama....

You are right, but LSU May hang around even if the defense does not get pressure, but it’s a key to the win. Tua best wth long routs and wide open receivers. Pressure and tight coverage is the key
Good. The more this team is underrated and disrespected, the better chance they will not have a misstep. MSESPN is a sad sports organization.
They could still have one to three losses. With some luck, could run the tables. Bama and Ga have more depth, but both are at home.
I was a doubter, when they picked him, but he quickly impressed me and has moved to my top choice. Win out, got to keep him. One loss, should keep him. Two losses he has a chance if they are close. Three losses will probably be someone else.
Leaving for the Texas conference, would be like going from pot to fire. I would advocate for an SEC mutiny against Sankey.
Jennings isn't there yet, but continues to improve. My opinion of him solidified during the Auburn debacle. He showed great leadership in being benched and great poise since. This is not JJ!
Anywhere Urban Meyer is
Anywhere Lane Kiffin is
Auburn
Pasadena definitely, Glendale, probably not.
My heart says 0, my brain says 2-4.
Wins Ole Miss, Arkansas
Loss Bama
Maybe -Florida, A&M, Miss St., USC

Unwillingness to spend.
- outdated facilities
- Discount coaches
- Bad Luck, like Bo Rein plane crash, and bad momentum.

That's why La players were going out of state. Saban was part of the turn around.

Only good coach after between Chollymac and Saban was Arnsparger.

Needs to be dynamic and create excitement that we haven't seen since Dale Brown. Use the excitement to get recruits. Without that, It will be tough for any coach at LSU, no matter how good the Xs and Os are.

LSU is a tough BB job right now, Good luck to Johnny.
TJ is not a bad coach, but I'm not sure if he can be create the right level of excitement to bump up recruiting. LSU is middle to bottom or the pack for SEC recruiting. LSU may not be able to compete with KY, but Florida level of recruits should be a possible.
Ever since JJ took over, offense had been going downhill. It was absolutely amazing that we put into place the same game plan that brought us no first downs in first half against GA, and not a whole lot better in first half against WKy and Ark.

I was also amazed at the way Les screwed over JL. It can't be good for recruiting new QBs, ..... and receivers.

I blamed most of the dumb offensive problems on JJ, this showed me that Les deserves more of the blame and I don't know if it will get better.
