We already Panglossed our way into thinking Klemm is a good coach.

How hard do you like your big men to be?

Well, frick :lol:. I see KD likes a little challenge from his OL unit. Plays on hard difficulty. I can respect that.

BOL is mentioning Adrian Klemm as a name to watch. And it’s likely Alabama makes two hires for OL.

---

As long as that's for assistant to the assistant OL coach, I'm good with it.

Edit: On further review, that statement needs an additional "assistant to the."

Almost certain that the agent just arranged this and seeded the Alabama bullshite to secure some bag.

If we were the name drop play, wouldn't Miami have just said "wait, so you want us to pay you less?"

I'd say the portal additions are probably a C. There’s some solid pieces but no one to really get excited about, so I’d say it’s an average haul. Net of the guys we lost, it’s probably more like a D.

About where I'm at on it. All things considered, as things stand now, I think we're a bit less talented than last year and I don't really like the talent distribution as much either. Not much really stands out as a clear area of improvement to me, outside of the guys who kick things maybe lol. Also not really liking what I can glean of our approach - seems like we were left scrambling for bodies. This wasnt some surgical trimming fat and replacing it with muscle type of deal.

I think you've got to be a really big believer in the staff's talent evaluation and ability to implement its approach when the guys we have are ones it brought in if you're excited about the roster changes.

I, on the other hand, am getting my hopium from choosing to believe that our next QB will be much better suited for us, that the staff is settling in and course correcting, that some weaknesses we saw last year were kind flukish, and that we're going to have great injury luck. Nothing too much :lol:

I get the sense this has something to do with shithead Lane being super shitheady.

Besides depth, what did we lose with Renaud leaving ? He was decent to good but not a true game changer. All we can do is trust the staff to replace him with someone better.

---

Lol damn, our very last scholarship D lineman could announce he's transferring and the reaction here would just be a bunch of "he only had one sack," "not a key piece," "Indiana has shown that we need PRODUCTION, not potential," "well, bye (gif)" stuff.

But, OTOH, we do have Freddie, so I guess I kind of get the what's there to worry about sentiment.

We were in the lead for him before Deion sold his toes for him.

Well, would ya look at that, Sark's toes just went up for sale.

Connected poster on another site says we'll have another DL defection in the portal tomorrow.

No name given.

If that means we're losing one of our guys, then no, defection rejected. If that means we're getting someone who defected from another school, then, l yes, I approve.
