Football starters in 2019

[CajunVic]

He's not coming to UL, not today or tomorrow. JMO

Used to playing in front of the same size crowd.

[CajunT]

What's the story with the guy who was here this year? Transferred from Toledo? maybe.

Named Gibson I think. Is he done? Was he taking a RS or having to sit? Or is he just not very good?

Either way, with the HS kids coming in, Lewis, and this JUCO kid, and possibly the kid I'm asking about, hopefully Napier will be able to find someone who's capable.

I was told Gibson will get his chance along with Levi to take the job this spring. If Fields enrolls early, spring will be fun to watch this year.

On offense, really just replacing QB, Malone and Barnes.

On defense, I expect Manac, Hill, Jacquet, Garror, Moncrief and Wallace all to start, if healthy. Boudreaux brings so much knowledge, leadership and experience that I think he will be start the season as a starter, but I do hope he is beat out by a more athletic LB during the season.

Q walked on at both Toledo and here. Not sure if he is the answer.

I was just looking at McDowell s stuff he cant be discounted.

None of the 3 commits can be discountedon paper it looks to be an excellent recruiting class.on paper. Let's see what happens when they tee it up.

Also a QB that will take advantage of the opportunity to run when the defense gives it to you. He had a 53 yard run this past season for a TD. With 4.5 forty, he should be fun to watch at times.

Hopefully he is a 1 year rental to let our Rookies to get some exp

Napier has assembled a great class on paper (if they sign.) Assuming they do sign and considering the current players returning next year, who’s starting? Our backfield is set, but will Lewis be the guy handing off to them?

Is signing day on Wednesday this week?

[Cajunfanatico]

I would hope we have 7-8 new starters on defense. Other than Manac, Hill and Jacquet every position should be wide open. Really hope Dillon can come back and be a difference maker.
On offense I know a lot of people here have written Lewis off, but if do not have a spring JC transfer he is going to have a huge leg up on winning the job.

I have no clue what Napier might have in the works as far as a JC transfer qb, etc, but playing Lewis every 4th series told me he's taking no chances and just in case no one comes along to fill the role, he'll have someone with some real game experience.

I have to tip my hat to him for that because he was, in essence, coaching for both this year and next.

Yes early signing day

[CajunVic]

You seem to know exactly what this young man needs to do with his life.

I would put my game plan over football any day and the fine lad would grow up to thank me.

Some Bennett film below, jr year I believe.

Looks pretty impressive, great pocket presence, fast release, and when running reads his blockers very well.

I liked McDowell's film as well but didn't find him to be as accurate a passer.
