We need Peters to come in and be an elite safety next year.

I think that's what made our secondary so weak this year. Decent corners, terrible safeties.

I wonder how the safeties feel that Nickoe Whitley played better on a bum leg.

Ashamed.

I wish we could get Redshirt Freshman Nickoe back.

That was a fricking animal.

The more I think of it, I think our conservative corner play is a direct result of poor safety play. I've been wondering all year why they didn't seem to have a nose for the ball, even though the same guys seemed to have had it in the past. I think they have been coached to play conservative because we have known our safeties weren't good.

Need Peters to come in and catch on fast. I think Court will keep him at weight, but we need him to pick up on the playbook and speed of the game extremely fast. Would have been great to get him or McLaurin on campus in January.

I miss "hit you so hard I knock myself out" Nickoe so much. One of my all time favorite State players, just too many nagging injuries.

Wish I could buy that it was even, but Faulk CB'ed him to OM about the time that was written I believe....

I'm glad he got out before targeting was a thing.

That's why I think we need Peters to stay at Safety so bad.

We can fill Wells spot with someone else. It would pay much larger dividends to have Peters play safety.

RE: Cooley and Howard

While both are pretty good prospects, I don't think we are going to pursue either heavily.

Cooley will be playing TE without a doubt. I think we have plenty to fill that position. What are we up to, like 7 potential TE's now?

As far as QB goes, we will be going after Dak 2.0 from Pike Co. or somewhere around there. That kid looks legit and with a few years of grooming will be a perfect fit for us.

I think he may be referring to the QB from north pike

Juwan Adams

Yeah I had to find him. I watched his highlights a while back but couldn't remember his name.

I thought Jalen Hurts was our top target.

There's a pretty decent list for 2016 QB's that have interest.

Little to No shot:
Xavier Gaines Likely Ends up at FSU
Jawon Pass Likely doesn't give us a look, stopped recruiting his brother in 2015.

Good Shot, doesn't fit:
Jalen Hurts To small, see Virgil
Josh White Named us his leader numerous times, Pro Style QB

Best fit, best shot:
Juwan Adams Likes us, perfect fit

Keon Howard I have no idea where to put him as of right now. Listed at 6'2" 200 lbs., He's likely not that big. We'll probably recruit him; if he shows good interest we will continue recruiting, if he sounds like an Ole Miss lean, we will pursue Adams as the No. 1 priority.
