Huuuuge get. Needed that one. A statement commit imo.

It’s been a little of both, but the goofy arse reserve call after the 8 yard screen pass to Singleton in the first half made my head explode and is a microcosm of our play calling all year imo.

Or the guy who said “yeah we’ll roll with an oline from Akron, JMU, and USF this year and be fine.

I disagree about the DL. We always had a very good dline while Gus was here. It’s what kept us in a lot of games. Rodney Garner can recruit and develop a dline as good as anyone see Tennessee.

Is he a guy that can improve and challenge for a starting spot next year?

Tom Loy with 247 posted a couple hours ago that he likes Auburn here.

When does Mantas pick?

I think he already has. We’re either waiting to see if we can get him cleared or until he is out of contract from everything I’ve read, not which or maybe both.

Yep, backed up by George Kimble is what I’ve read.

I’m sure culture change is part of it, but the biggest improvement, and will probably be a 2-3 game swing is not having a lazy arse HC.

Who not only didn’t want to attend offensive meetings, but also wanted to show up on Saturdays calling plays that weren’t even practiced the week before.

Competency from the HC alone will be a net gain.

We've spent the entire season talking about how badly this roster was constructed, and now it sounds like we are pretty much running it back. Tahaad at the 1 and Overton at the 2 gives us the same crappy defense and poor offensive flow we had this year in the backcourt.

The poor construction to me was more about the lack of bigs and rim protectors. Overton was a very good defender at TT. Defense is always going to struggle without bigs protecting the rim.

And we’re not really running anything back, I mean we have the core of the team and will be much bigger inside and probably about the same on the wings and possibly better from the outside if we get the Texas kid and the Euro kid.

Completely blowing a roster up year after only works if you’re spending 25-30 million and I doubt we will be doing that.
