How many scholarships player did we have in 2018? Hint it was the same as an fcs squad.

How many future nfl players on that same roster?

[Jacob81]

Bradley
Butler
Jacquet
Calais
E Mitchell
Ragas
M mitchell
Dotson
Hunt

Ferrod Gardner made a camp. Not sure if I missed any. That’s a lot of pros on a depleted roster.

Great point all the head coach did was call hs plays and very generic at that and on the def side of the ball he called some really bad formation please go back and look at troy, usm and monroe he had our guys out of position many of times. I expect you to say the def played well at times and I'll say thats my point this team had enough talent to be 9-2 and if you have two quarterbacks you have none.

Mike never called one defensive play. His DC did.

Coach didn’t miss block have bad snaps at ULM and drop passes. I’d argue this staff did a good job bringing this team along from where they were. We had zero Oline and rushing attack when the season started. But some people think you lose a tackle to the draft and an all American guard to the portal we can just plug and play.

The team was not prepared and showed the worst effort in a decade against ULM. That’s on the coaches.

South Alabama….take the holding penalty with 30 seconds left and play for overtime. We likely win. That’s on the coaches.

USM….didn’t even show up in the first half. On the coaches.

Troy…no clue how that happened.

Mainly, the offensive staff and kicking game this season has not executed to the capability of the talent on the field. We should have won the SBC West if we execute, even with all of our OL limitations.

All of this.

All of this could have been avoided if BWK would have just known who the starting QB was going to be on Friday.

Last years team would have lost to this FSU team by minimum 2 touchdowns.

One more week. Win the game, go to the bowl, win the bowl and get better in the offseason. We are not changing coaches after one year, and none of us are getting called up as a special analyst. All this relentless negativity is pointless.

so true.

Most of those guys sub .500 the previous 2 years. Napier backfield with talent that was successful here. You think he then just said ____ it and did recruit well after that point. Left the coffers bone dry for the next coach

[Jacob81]

No. Most of the nfl talent that would be on this roster left when he left. Jefferson will be a pro. Not sure who else. Zyon should get a look.

[KajunKrazy]

Trey Amos if he continues to develop.

I think you will get others that get looks, but I agree with you.

Here is who I think will get looks based on right now:

Andre Jones (huge upside as a player)
Ziyon Hill-Green
Michael Jefferson
Braylen Trahan
Kris Moncrief
Eric Garror
Trey Amos
KC Ossai (Huge upside)
Rhys Byrnes

I am not saying they will all make it, but scouts will be looking at these guys during our games/practices. Others young players could emerge, but right now those are some names that are at least would have a chance to be looked at, specifically if they have good pro days.

Pedescleaux and Quibodeaux would have a chance but size is going to be an issue.

I think the two that we might see playing professionally are Michael Jefferson (almost a lock) and Braylen Trahan. Every other one needs some help. Garror is capable of playing at the next level, but size will be his biggest deterrent.

This is one way CMD will be judged. UL has gotten on a nice run of getting a few guys to the NFL every year. That’s one measurement of a coach’s recruiting. And a great recruiting tool going forward if successful.
