Discussion Piece: What needs to be added to the team

[blackvern]

Buechele had designed run plays in Lashlee's offense. I posted highlights of him running a naked-boot leg for a first down in another thread. Wasn't exactly poetry in motion, but he got the first down.

Maybe TVD can be our Howell. I think he's plenty athletic enough to run Lashlee's offense. It helps too that our schedule is very soft.

heard that all summer 2019 and we went 6-7

Cool with all that but franks. Hard pass on that mf no matter what.

Yeah. It's like science in these parts now. LOL. That statement was more hopeful than optimistic.

Gilbert Frierson-RS SO - JAG
Keontra Smith-RS FR - Hasn't played enough to tell
Amari Carter-SR - JAG
Bubba Bolden-RS JR - Looked solid in limited action this year
Gurvan Hall-JR - OK this year with some terrible moments
Jalen Harrel-FR - Hasn't gotten here, but solid in high school
K Washington-FR - Total project who will probably never play meaningful snaps
Brian Balom-FR - Wouldn't have been recruited if not for lack of depth in the secondary

That's not a very good recruiting record.

Banda consistently does lees with more. His development and coaching is mediocre at best.

So I decided to make one thread for the multiple transfer thread that will ultimately pop up just to save the from clutter.

I’ll start off by saying my opinion on what is needed.

QB: One of KJ Costello, Anthony Brown, and Jett Duffey need to be added here. It’s painful to add Feleipe Franks but even he would be a plug and play starter here as well. Really hard pressed here because we’re behind the 8 ball and already missed out on Jake Bentley who probably would’ve been the best fit. I would say Jaime Newman but he’s going to a place to bolster his draft stock, not a place like Miami with a new OC. Maybe a FCS name who’s trying to get notoriety will pop up but I haven’t heard of anything like that.

WR: We need to add 2 big bodied guys. I personally would love to add Tarik Black and Dee Anderson from LSU to the room. I wouldn’t really be thrilled about Justin Shorter because he has drop issues and wouldn’t be upset about Scott Bracey and Aaron Young from Duke but I believe Black and Anderson have the most upside of the bunch. I would say give a look to Jordan Jones out of Arkansas a look but idk if he’ll be eligible immediately.

OT: We need to hit here hard. I would personally add Henry Hattis and move him inside and I would add TJ Storment as a RT. I’m willing to let Zion start the year at LT being that he shouldn’t have been a starter there in the first place. He should’ve been a redshirt BUT he’s really athletic and has fixable technique issues. Devery Hamilton to me needs to be a backup plan because he’s never been a starter at one spot and has always moved around. Another name that’s interesting is Zach Robertson from ASU but he missed a lot of last season.

DE: This should be a luxury, not a necessity. Adding Quincy Roche though is a no brainer and IF he wants to come here he’s a plug and play starter who probably gives us one of the deepest DE rooms in the country.

LB: We need to add 1 because of how inexperienced we are here. I would go after Tyree Thompson from UCLA and he’ll should immediately be a top 3 Back here. That’s really it for LB. Not much to choose from

CB: We need at least 1 here But I would go with 2. Obi Eboh is a immediate top 3 guy and would probably start opposite Al. I would then go for Greg Ross to round it out there.

K: Borregales or bust. Simple as that

Heart, brains, and courage.

I’m struggling to find a fit at QB. Duffey has too many character concerns. Costello is a poor athlete and a questionable scheme fit. Everybody else isn’t that good.

Let’s hope TVD is the real deal.

What about Phil Jurkovich, transfer from ND? He played under OC Chip Long at ND.

 

[Canesfan1899]

Two skilled bag men?

This would really solve many of our recruiting issues.

Wish we would cut 2 of these qbs right now so it would be more attractive landing spot for a transfer.right now a transfer would have to compete with 5 qbs

BC bound. BC CB'd for a pretty solid WR from Mich as well in Portal. As someone said before, not many QBs appear to have eligibility next year in Portal. Greg Ross is one I would go for... CB Greg Ross from UNC that can play next year.
