Don't see how this could be considered trolling. Just speaking from my own point of view here. Not having the access to the team has tempered my excitement just bc O was sold as the anti Les when it comes to transparency.

A new OC, the 2nd season of Aranda the mad scientist, Guice pushing for the Heisman, Devin White, the punisher . . .

If you are lacking excitement, you made need to change your meds.


To be fair...

We've had a new OC every other year. Fournette was a heavier heisman favorite last year. Beckwith was farther along last year than White this year. This is our worst Oline, WR, and secondary we've had in a while on paper.

Maybe I need to change my meds

" risky for Coach O "

I really don't think he cares. We talking about a man who a year ago was making D line coach pay and who now is making 3.5 million a year with a 10 million by out .

I would think he would feel that he was set for life or at lease 3-4 yrs as long as he doesn't get caught with a 25 yr old who works for him riding on the back of his bike.

There is a lack of video but not a lack of information. It's just not bundled up for the casual observer/weak minded like usual.

If you aren't excited about what White brings to the middle of the D then you didn't watch the last half of the season. Fournette was hurt going into the opener last year and even though he had a great season, he was never fully healthy. Guice is and he's a more versatile player vs Fournette's downhill style. Succeed or fail, we've never had an OC like Canada. He took a less talented team and scored over 40 in wins against national champ Clemson and Rose Bowl team Penn St.

The OL is good but not deep. Certainly a concern. WRs are inexperienced, but talented. They are being coached better and being given a scheme to create separation. We've had very talented WRs the last 2 years, but how often did you see them get significant separation?

No one knows how the season will play out, but if you're not optimistic, I think it's willful pessimism.
