We need QBs, OL, receivers, safeties, DL, and probably several other positions. That great defense this year was full of one year mercenaries.

I’m confident LK will hit a home run in the portal, but a little worried that all spectacle around LK, the talk about the portal being what we’re going to do , and his history using it at OM is showing our hand and these agents of the portal kids will drive up the prices.

It’ll be fine…just trying to find the next thing to bitch about.

Next year was riding on the portal regardless of the coach.

Every single team in the country is reliant on the portal if they want to be in serious contention. No matter what position you think we need, there’s another team that believes it’s the one piece that will get them a natty. The market will set the price for the players.

Your over exaggerating . QB’s for sure. Receivers yes but the cup isn’t bare like your making it sound. Have two top 150 guys coming in in Jabari Mack and Corey barber, Kyle Parker is talented , taron Francis has ability, decent chance Aaron Anderson returns. OL is one of the most misunderstood positions in this site did they underperform this year ? Yes but did they have a shitty offensive line coach who didn’t put them in position to succeed ? Yes theirs a lot of talent on this offensive line carius curne will most likely be moved back to guard , Solomon Thomas is extremely talented and will be healthy next year , Echols improved, Tyree Adams will prob be back , ory williams showed a lot of ability at RT before he got hurt , we have the most athletic tackle prospect in the country coming in in Bryson Martinez so idk why your acting like it’s a bare cup that fricking false add some more depth at center behind Moore, maybe add another tackle but acting like we need a brand new starting 5 OL filled with transfers is being dramatic.

The defense mainly needs some help at edge. Wym safety? We have Dashawn spears coming back , Cooley can return, Jhase Thomas , no.1 safety in LA, is back for year 2 and a tremendous athlete look for him to have a role in year 2. If Cooley declares for the draft tho then yea you gotta add more then.

At DL, loaded historic freshmen class coming in, Dom Dom and breaux will be jrs, Mathis and Zion have promise, we also will have one of the best cb duos in the country in Pickett/woodland along with talented depth behind them in Anding, Finney, Jackson , Turner

Agree. People are judging an OL that had lousy coaching and a terrible offensive scheme. We have talent on the Oline..Need to find a center and another OT. Anyone know anything about OM center this year?

Exactly the o line didn’t have a chance to succeed with a god awful scheme, guys play out of position and poor coaching behind that. Miss’s starting center is a RS SO who’s 6’6 310…. Pretty nice size for a center

And others are just saying it’s a bad scheme or blaming it on the coaches, while the players have absolutely no fault at all. Which one is it? No one knows - is it the players or the coaches? It’s likely both. This is why we need better offensive lineman either in the portal or from high school. Otherwise we’re taking a huge chance next year that we’re gonna end up in the same boat we were in last year with talent all over the field and a shitty offensive line that does not allow them to get in space and gain yardage and also protect the quarterback.
