Football Recruits and Early signing period

[cajuns80]

This past class had some extremely talented OL prospects.

Time will tell. All we heard pre season was how good our D line was and they were horrible.

I know a few that aren't listed on any sites. Heard from a dad of a DE that a really good high school QB plans to sign with UL. Can really play anywhere on the field.

The recruiting up to this point is not a concern. I know they continue to offer a few JC's, specifically at OT and DL. One is the former Acadiana High School Walter Bob at Hutchinson JC. I really think they need to look at the portal as well at OT. But we shall see what happens next month.

CMD is recruiting like a Mutha.

If he can iron out the negatives to this point in his tenure, he very well could be another Robe.

I'm ridin' with Mike.

Not necessarily, I don't think all of them are terrible. I think it has everything to do with what you are asking them to do in your system.

But were they horrible? They were middle of the pack in FBS.

Fair enough, the 3 down lineman scheme did not work.

It’s kinda hard to be good when it’s constantly 5/6 on 3. The scheme was terrible not the players.

Remember, that offset 34 look wasn't good under Hudspeth either. We have guys like Lawson, Gant, Whitfield and Peterson when he returns that are edge guys. They are not built to rush from the 5 or 7 on the 3 DL look. Bayles is an edge guy that they insist on playing inside at times. At 270 I don't care for it either. McGriff was never an interior DL. Narcisse and Wiser are solid inside and Hazard is simply a NT.

Big question is whether this assistant staff can coach these guys up..

Napier's staff did that as well as any coach we've ever had.

Desormeaux's staff -- this point -- has not.

T, do you think he'll honor his Alabama committment or end up here?
