You said that before the season when I maintained that djack could slide inside and look what happened he got multiple sacks and tfls doing so and didn’t look out of position in doing so
Albert huggins has 6.5 tfls and 2 sacks on the year.
And if there's one thing CIS posters love more than Miami winning, it's the I told you so moments.
You guys must have miserable lives
3 dts getting majority of their reps. Our starters split times with multiple dends(chad, dj and bethel and ford) at dt
Can we really not steal that 4 star DT commit from FIU? Smh

Nesta isnt a high level college DT. He is a high level recruit. He hasnt taken a snap in college. You dont know if he will be ready day 1.
When did Pete say that? 2 days ago Pete said he was coming and didn't see a post saying otherwise
Don't misunderstand. I'm not implying that he won't leave. We seem to have a major problem of guys jumping ship only to be drafted on the last day if at all. I'm wondering if Pete has heard something or if he's seen some legit info that I have not that would change his draft grade. I think it's all fair to say that WE think Norton and McIntosh are big time players for us, or we wouldn't be terribly concerned about them leaving. I also think RJ's athleticism would bump him up at the combine, but how far? I've yest to see him listed in anyone's top 25 draft eligible DTs.
Who the heck are you talking about?

He can play pass downs but you need big nasties eating space .
Everyone's answer for the crappy dt recruiting is to keep sliding de's inside. Or maybe just recruit more Dt's where we aren't in this position.
We're chasing Jucos because of not being prepared for 7 and 80 leaving. Grad transfers is the next option , maybe Uva has another backup to come down and help.
Yes, he was thought of as a guard by the other schools recruiting him, but he was listed as a 4 star DT with ESPN as well, and I was responding to this statement about the two DTs initially, "Both 3 stars, both totally dismissed by the typical over emotional whining womanly fans on this site." and both were generally highly regarded on this site which is what I was claiming. Assorted comments when Norton was being recruited:
"Great get. An honest-to-God nose tackle."
"Like the Kendrick Norton pick up for the lackluster day. Kid is how you draw up a possible nose, him and Ryan Fines can duke it out. I like him more than Fines as a prospect. Kid is athletic as you can see him at guard and he weighs close to 300. And isn't "fat"...so there is some development to be made. Were looking at a 6'2 315 pd dt as a soph here."
"There are several threads about this guy already. But to answer your question Norton is a MONSTER AT OG, and is very strong at holding the point of attack. So as a natural 2 gapping NT/DT this kid is perfect for Goldens 3-4 two gap defense and could have a Louis Nix type affect on UM's defensive front."
"See Louis Nix. Played OT and DT in HS, and we recruited him at DT (as did ND). Worked out well for the Irish."
"As much as I hate this defensive scheme, it is the best fit for Norton. He is the perfect NT for Coach D'Onofrio.
Maybe I'm a homer but I think we land him. He has visits scheduled to Miami, Ole Miss and VTech. Tito is pretty plugged in with legit sources in Florida, and he is hearing they will pass due to scheme-fit issues. Miami makes the most sense."
Today .He gone
Its one thing to play but the key is to actually do something when you do.

And you don’t know if he won’t be ready either. Kids come in all the time and take over positions. Joe Jackson did it, ed Oliver and Demarcus Lawrence last year.
Ivins saying Miami is/was concerned over a previous knee injury.
Only thing more miserable would be starting a crap lad of troll accounts to rustle jimmies. Now that's pathetic

Ariz just said Goldwire to Louisville on the Radio just now.
Really good point. I asked tweed to get a measurement of realus' wingspan. I immediately thought of a second Nikita Whitlock when I heard he was coming. Nikita was a motherfugging terror for Wake, and realus is actually bigger than him. Just gotta make sure realus has the wingspan to keep guards and centers off of him.
They took his brother along in the process, who's not exactly quality enough for a big program.
Lawerence wasnt depended on to play day 1. He came in and was just so good they had to play him. The problem is we are depending on freshmen at a tough position like DT to come in and be good right away.
