Not favoritism but poor recruiting.



Love Flagg's character. But Vilma was also a high character guy. You can have both.

This is true. You can have both. But IIRC a few of our resident geniuses didn’t exactly want to take him. I’m serious, mane. Hindsight is always 20/20,

Indeed. Flagg is one guy who actually hit his ceiling. There are players loved by this board that are stacked like cord wood in the basement.

Why don't we trot him out this season and just see what happens.

I would never point this out - but some of the analysts here - emphasis on anal - have a ton of misses. In fact, if as much crap came out their butts as comes out of their mouths - they'd have crapped themselves to death before the age 10.

Knowles was blistered here.

Not much kindness towards him and all he did to deserve it was show up and play hard.

Knowles was better than Gurvan Hall by the time he left.

We all know we've had linebacker struggles for quite some time, but Flagg is one of those guys where it always kills me how hard people are on him. He may not be the perfect contemporary cover LB but the kid has classic instincts for the position - ****, he probably would have been a stud vs. the offenses of 10-12 years ago - and nothing about him or his effort has ever said anything other than he gives 200% for the U on the helmet. I know we all want to see the team do well and we've been wandering in the desert for what feels like 40 years yadda yadda but these are moments you realize these guys are just kids. Being a good kid with maturity and work ethic may not single handedly make our program a consistent playoff contender but I for one am glad a guy like that has decided to give it his all for this program.

I HAVE NO IDEA how he gets the vitrol he gets and Keontra Smith didnt.

He was wayyy ahead of him as a player last year. He gets killed because folks never wanted him in he first place...and it just continued. He isnt a terrible rotational lber...he's serviceable we know his weaknesses. He should be a special temas/rotaitonal guy here not starting long term...he may be good in spurts..if Mauigoa locks down his spot which i expect.
