Some early buzz from spring

[rok]

Rousseau would have played plenty in 2018 considering DJax only played in 4 games after a torn ACL in November 2017. Jackson, Garvin, Patchan took all the snaps at DE. Joyner and McCray were the only other DEs on the team.

 

[grover]

Our roster, from top to bottom, is lackluster. If we didn’t have a legit quarterback, I’d be very concerned.

It won’t put the fear of god into any of the top programs. We’re good enough to win the Coastal and be dangerous. But not great yet. Mario will get us there soon.

 

[WilCanes]

Love the tools Brown has to work with, but a word of caution: inaccuracy is a problem that often can't be "coached" out of a passer.

Looks like it was coached out of Josh Allen of the Bills. He was very inaccurate coming out of college (Which was the knock on him) and in his 1st year in the league.

At the nfl level maybe but as a true freshman in college it absolutely can and has been done. No QB comes into college a finished product, his development just started.

 

[Odysseus]

Tyrique at Field
Al Jr at Boundary
Daryl Porter Jr at Nickel

Is a vast improvement from last year’s group, I’ll take that all day.

No ivey lol

 

[Odysseus]

Clown show had Cody Brown over Thad.

Clown show

I got citizen over brown

 

[Odysseus]

Man we gonna need like 5 or 6 d-linemen, 3 linebackers, 4 corners, 2 safeties for recruiting to fix the holes on the defensive. It's very top heavy

Making absolute judgements about the future of a true incoming freshman QB based upon a total of 15 seconds of grainy practice videos, conducted in his first ever spring practice, for a guy that could be running track or playing baseball for his high school team right now, only proves one thing:

Which CIS porsters are on the left side of the bell curve for common sense and football knowledge.

His accuracy has improved but he’s still on the lower end for NFL quarterbacks. 62% puts him in the bottom third of the league for his career. Ken Dorsey gets a lot of deserved credit for working with him but in terms of pure accuracy he is going to be behind the top level guys. He’s still a better all around quarterback then some of the more accurate throwers though.

Agreed. We need to win the Coastal and beat FSU. Anything more is gravy in year 1.

James Williams is certainly a 'balla, but c'mon man he does not move like he is 5'11. Go back and watch Sean Taylor, his speed and pop were lethal. He covered the deep third like a blanket and hit like a rhinoceros!

Ok maybe 6ft, but I’d compare more to Ray Ray Armstrong except for he moves a lot better in space. Sean was a anomaly it’s not fair to compare anyone to him and I don’t need to go watch his highlights to remember how good he was

 

[Bpayne32]

I don’t know what it is but I’m more worried about DT than DE we need a 300 pounder there badly

For those of us on the other side of the curve, it’s pretty entertaining.

Taylor is 300

There was an old story of Steve Young and Trent Dilfer...they had some contest as to whom could hit the crossbars from certain distances...Dilfer was much more accurate in this test...but who would you rather have as a qb?

Absolutely. Just like the QB with the strongest arm isn’t necessarily the best passer.

Although in this specific instance, I’m assuming Young and Dilfer were aiming at a target from a significant distance because Young was as accurate as you could get from under 30 yards. His deep ball was pretty mediocre though/

I'm a little fuzzy on it, but to his credit, I think Dilfer mentioned the story...he knew who was better.

Moten who will be here in the summer is 320. And I'm pretty sure Haye is 300 + too.

 

[Felonious Monk]

That OL group, DE and LB are pretty bad. JAG’s everywhere. CB too. Like bottom of the ACC bad

9 wins at best unless we get some more plug and play transfers. So far the portal guys we have got seem to be depth at best.

Manny left Mario a roster with more gaping holes than a Brazzers company picnic.

It will take a while to fix. Keep expectations in check and give Mario time to correct

 

[Canes91]

James Williams is closer to Ray Ray than Sean T. He more fluid than Ray Ray though i will say that.
Comparing anybody to Sean isnt right TBH
