Yeah that Ring he just got screams not a Quarterback.

Peoples was super effective from the slot and there were several games where he seemed like the only guy open. Hopefully one of these guys steps up and can be on the level he was.

That was what our offense was missing last year. We ran the ball so well but our passing game was severely limited. Getting a legit slot threat is gonna make us nasty on offense.

Nastier. And it is going to be seriously nasty.

Ladarius Green spent much of his senior year playing in the slot. I'd imagine Barnes will be used in a similar fashion.
