look at the first highlight. No it was not as impressive but I am convinced Dupre could catch a ball like that. The 2015 team could be one of the greatest college football teams assembled as far as talent!!

How will it be any different from this year ? Bedsides losing most of our o-line and possibly Kwon and Hunter.

He needs to stop being physically pushed around first. DBs have been able to widen him off the field and out of bounds all year and it is tough to watch.

Nobody in the history of football has caught a ball like that.

But, yes, Malachi has the ability to be an All-Pro for a number of years.

He has the position coach to help him get there -- I personally believe the best in the country -- but we know the rest.

Teams lose players every year. The good thing about this team being so young is that there won't be the mass exodus like the past 3 offseasons. Now next year maybe a different story.

This. What you described was obvious on the first attempt in OT against Bama where Jennings tried to go to him. No way should he have allowed the defender to cut him off, out of bounds. He needs to learn to fight more to the inside on those routes. If he does that, the pass stands a better chance to be completed.

Malachi is going to be great in the future but he was raw as frick coming in and is still very raw.

Well, to make a catch like that, the QB has to make a bad(overthrown, off target) throw. I know we have the "talent" for that.

AJ is good for one of those on about 1.3% of his passes. We good.

There's nothing raw about Malachi, but he is physically outmatched right now. He needs to get stronger and tougher. He'll be legit.

That's what I meant by raw. He has the routes, speed, etc but just doesn't have the SEC receiver it factor yet.

Yep. I don't believe everybody with a draft grade of 4th or worse will jump ship. Hopefully they see what Collins did by coming back. La'el Collins is the only top 3 round talent we have this year (I expect him to go in the top 20 or 15 picks).

Ok, let's say Hawkins, Dural, and Hunter come back. Those are huge achievements for next year giving us a 3/4 starting DL, and at least a starter at LT and RT in Pocic and Hawkins.

After 2015, I'd say White, Beckwith, Hunter, Hawkins, and Dural. That's it! We should bring back 4 starters from the OL, 3 starters from the DL, Duke Riley plus Garrett as a junior, and Toliver, Paris. Cutrer, Thomas as CBs. Battle, Adams, and Lewis as safeties, Diarse, Dupre, Quinn, Chark at WR. Fournette, Williams, Guice and Ducre at RB, and Harris, Jennings, McMillan, plus the strong possibility of two of the top QBs in 2016.

The 2016 squad will be extremely loaded with talent and experience. Even if we do lose Hunter and Hawkins this year, that means we could potentially bring back the entire starting OL and DL for 2016. I know I'm thinking ahead, but man I am so damn excited for the immediate future of this team!

Yep, but once he bulks up and gains experience, OMG.

Just on talent alone with even worse QB play than Randle did, he has more receptions. yards and TDs on way less pass attempts as a freshman. With all his raw ability, even average QB play would have garnered him around 500-600 yards and 8 TDs.
