We are about to lose Nesta, Ford, and Miller and just lost one to transfer and return a grand total of

Taylor
Haye
Q. Williams
Elijah*

next year, but we aren’t going to take any DT’s? What FBS program goes into a season with 5 DTs? Come on man, stop lol. We need to take 3, minimum. This was a local guy who had camped, been on campus several times and even privately. We want him, we failed. Aint the first time, wont be the last.

Elijah isn’t an asterisk. He’s not moving.
 
Only guys on the board that either play DT or have the frame to become a DT

1) Bear (nope)
2) Lucas
3) Hastings (just offered)
4) Jamari Lyons (never recruited)
5) Daniel Lyons
6) Tarber (motor/weight issues)

It’s ok. I’ll just wait to be right again while you all get embarrassed again.

who are we saving these ultra premium DT spots for? Maybe we never heard much buzz cause we have been 2nd place for months.

Ya’ll said Durant wasnt a take after he went elsewhere, now doing the same with this kid...so again, I ask, who is?
We just got beat, it happens. No need to make excuses for this staff.

Durant was a loss pure and simple.. Lyons and Anderson have been reported Package deals. However, if FSU takes Lyons with out Anderson that’s a Big (pun intended) loss. If they take both it’s a small loss, but loss nevertheless because it’s a loss at a position of need DT to our rival no less. It’s difficult to know if we’re now after Plan B’s without knowing who the Plan A’s are and what the DT board even looks like. And if I’m honest I’m not sure just how hard Lyons was targeted by the staff. I know it was more than Anderson, but not sure how much more. But it’s a loss if true. Looks like our DT board is a TBD and work in progress.

Durant wasn’t a loss. He basically admitted we didn’t let him commit.

I don’t disagree with we need a full DT class but where is Miller going?

Wtf FSU??? I have seen so many fans on here say things like I wouldn’t send my kid to Miami (especially LB and CB-before Trob) to play for Miami..but I really can’t fathom why a parent would send their kid to go play for that goofy staff smh

Looks like a bunch of whiffs and will end with a plan C you’ll pump up so you look right.

I don’t have a plan c. This interior line class sucks if you’re not getting a premier guy and Lyons isn’t one of them. They’re probably betting on one of the DTs of Miller, Ford, or Nesta coming back(probably Jordan) and grabbing a transfer. If somebody pops up that they like in between then they’ll probably take a look.
 
Imo this is just a weird year where alot just seems quiet everywhere tbh for uncommitted kids and especially here outside of the CBs because they committed early. I trust Simpson no doubt he's proven himself but I couldn't say what I think will happen when this year more then any I don't have a vibe of any positions

Everyone was talking about Lyons and Tarber as an A+ haul and now the apologists are out in force saying neither is even a take and their offers weren’t committable. This is insane spin.

Either we f-ed up the evaluations to begin with or we f-ed up the recruitment. I’m a huge Simpson fan but this is not a good look.. Also, I saw their HUDL highlights and they are Miami kids.

We cannot take zero DTs and a rent-a-DT portal kid is a fail because you’re hoping the right talent comes available without having any control.

In what ******* book is an undersized DT and a DT who’s own DC said had weight and motor issues an A+ haul?

You have to continue to recruit Daniel Lyons and try and flip him from FSU. You can’t simply go a full recruiting cycle not recruiting one of the biggest positions on a football field.

I agree Simpson has proven himself on the field but he still has a long way to go in recruiting.
