With the possibility of having 4 true freshmen either starting or getting significant playing time this year, do you think that is our best opportunity for success? Obviously experience will be lacking, but the wide receivers and qbs on the roster don't separate much from the freshmen in that regard. I think the talent of Quinn, LF, Dupre, and possibly Harris is greater than what we have on the roster at this time and I really just want to see those guys ball out.

My main concern is if they are physically ready to compete from day 1. Some guys take a year or so to get big enough.

Harris is the only one I would say is not big enough to compete at this point. The others are pretty damn big right now. Hopefully the Oline is so good that Harris doesn't get touched.

Eventually. Not immediately.

4 true freshmen? I'd so around 6-8. Those guys being Fournette, Dupre, Quinn, Harris, Valentine, Adams, Paris. Now I don't expect all these guys to contribute from day 1, but they will see the field alot throughout the year. And for those players I'm not talking about just special teams! This 2014 class is very special!

A possible great RB can make life much easier on young QBs.

Lets hope the "experts" were right bout the guy!

If LF is not ready to play in game one, I'll never pretend to know anything about football recruits again...promise!

no, it never does. Unless you have an older team and they have a specific role.
