NEVER TOO EARLY TO TALK FOOTBALL: 2015

[ULGrad@HOU]

I don't think we'll be changing our offensive strategy much. TB was a tough runner and made good decisions on the option, but he went down quickly when given the chance, so to avoid taking a hit. Which, I'm not totally against, because we don't want the QB taking hits. However, I think the other QB's, if they have any kind of athletic ability, should be able to do the same thing when we need the QB to keep on the option. I would also like to see a more wide open offense that can threaten down field. Accuracy from the remaining QB's remain a mystery to me and until I see some actual game time action, it's going to be hard to assess what we have. I just want the best QB to out there, I don't care if its a freshman or a junior.

That pretty much says it all.

What year do we go to Tulane?

As far as Nixon is concerned, I'm sorry but when you get to the point that the NCAA suspends you for drug use you have lost your shot at QB. Now if Jordan Davis beats out Haack then so be it.

Disagree. If he doesn't have a shot to start at QB then he wouldn't be on the team

Then he should not be on the team. You cannot build your team around a knucklehead who may decide that getting stoned is more important than leading his team.

Maybe you are right, but that is Hud decision not ours. If Coach Hud thinks he served his punishment and can lead our team then so be it.

I'm not so worried about the offense as the defense. Here's how I view next year.

OFFENSE
WR Jared Johnson
WR Jamal Robinson (he gets another yr)
WR C.J. Bates
TE Matt Barnes (Rotate Nick Byrne)
OL Adrian Goodacre
OL Jesse Freeman
OL Octravian Anderson
OL Donovan Williams
OL Mychael Quave
QB Brooks Haack
RB Elijah "The Prophet" McGuire
RB Effrem "The Patriarch" Reed

DEFENSE
DL Remaine Douglas
DL Jacoby Briscoe
DL Chris Prater (Rotate in Darrien Bastite)
LB Dominique Tovell
LB Tyren Alexander
LB Kevin Fourqier
LB Darzil Washington
CB Jevante Watson
CB Travis Crawford
S Tracy Walker
S T.J. Worthy


P/K Aaron Bird
PK Carlos Alvarez
PR Devin Scott
KR Montrel Carter

3-4 Defensive front sending Washington and Tovell off the edge. Fourqier and Alexander will cover the middle.

Left out transfers & academic casualty starter that will likely be eligible on defense.........
1) Arkansas 4 star LB Otha Peters
2) LSU 4 star CB Brazil
3) LSU 3 star CB Holmes
4) 2013 CB 3 star starter Simeon Thomas (using red-shirt this year)

Defense will be better next year, TJ posey,Otha peters, trey granier, toboris lee, ladarius Kidd, marquis white, Brazil, Holmes, Thomas, are all guys that will contribute heavily that you left off. I'm pretty sure Stevie artigue will win the kicking jump from jump. We need to figure out the QB and replacing quave and Johnson on OL. One of the freshman hopefully can step in as alonzo replacement. Leadership will be the toughest thing to replace, talent is there.

It is not bathe did it. It is the fact that in order to receive a NCAA suspension you must have been caught more than once.
