So you are going into this season and outlook based on Ivey?
Mind you, you already didn't even factor in that we did address CB in the portal with Porter. And not even factoring in that they practiced in spring without our #1 CB, who is good, in Stevenson. Not to mention, reports from inside guys we are lucky enough to get from that we know to be getting legit information, that the new staff, coaching, S&C have made a difference in improving the guys that did practice in spring.
Of course it has to play out on the field, but all indications are pointing towards the CB play and room to be improved from what we have seen in the past.
Also this isn't Madden, you have scholarship restrictions. You just can't go and pick and drop whoever you want. Finite number of scholarships these coaches know they will have to play with after transfers and what not. Based on their actions, which we have to assume is based on what they saw first hand after they coached them up, priority was changing the face of the DL room, addressing the O line, tweaking the CB room with Porter, and tweaking the WR room with 1 or 2 more guys. We can conclude that in the eyes of the what the coaches actually saw, D line then O line was a much bigger priority than CB and WR
