Yea we will need the freshman wrs like quinn, noil, and dupre to step up along w dural and diarse.
Hopefully fournette is as good as advertised and OL plays up to their potential. Really interested to see how the Jennings, Rettig, Harris battle plays out at the QB spot.

Come on. We all witnessed the team quit last night.

Mett is hurting physically. The juniors have already mentally jumped ship to the NFL and just want to avoid injury. And after we skull fricked ny JFF and the Aggies, not one single player, coach or fan will give a single shite about Arkansas and we WILL LOSE THAT GAME.

I'll permaban bet anyone who thinks otherwise.

Next year is a make or break year for Miles. On paper, it might be the least talented team he had since he came here. This past recruiting class should bring some studs in and the one incoming should be top 5 too. The problem is both classes are still young so it's asking a lot to expect much from them. If they do not develop though, we're in major trouble. The class from 2 years ago is riddled with absolute busts.

Lots of ignorance in this thread. We have no where to go but up. The team played ok last night. The defense just wore down. Mistakes in the first half robbed us of the lead going into the second half. We will reload with the 2014 class. Follow that up with a great 2015 class and we'll have bama-fla state talent again. We just have to stay the course.

Theres a difference between talent and experience. Next year's team will be very, very talented (with last yrs class and the one that we are currently working on). It's just a matter of how quickly they mature.

This is exactly what we wanted from the biggest game of the year.

Well, the class from 2 years ago is absolutely killing this team. I think it's safe to say that Lb class was an absolute bust to this point and I'm shocked they're not recruiting more LBs in this recruiting class. Doesn't look like the light will ever come on for Hunter other than looking good without a shirt on and Mills hasn't developed any.

It's asking a lot for an incoming freshman class to contribute heavily and one that's only a year old to put out a lot of starters their RS/Sophomore years.

Last yr we had a very good DL class. Some people seem worried that they are all redshirting but guys like Mingo, Montgomery, and Brockers redshirted so I am holding out hope that these DL will be just fine next yr. LB has been underwhelming and I could do without ever seeing Jalen Mills trailing a WR again but I do think Robinson and White could be special. At safety, Im curious as to what Ricky Jefferson can bring to the table. He played WR in HS so it may be a matter of him learning the position but he is definitely better athletically than what we currently have at safety.

Yep, except for Kwon

Its concerning that we don't have any LBs better than Barrow or Welter. I'm really hoping they're only playing because they're seniors

Unfortunately they'll have to next year

Fortunately Les could be pulling in his best class since he got here right now.

I think we'll be slightly better on D.

Jennings is the wildcard. If he can at least be chris leak 03/04 good then 9 or 10 wins is a possibility.

Aint skurred of wisky. Just dont want to see us fade like we have done last few years when november approaches. We are usually pretty dominant in september.

Louis an debo will be fine. Garrett, Young and Donnie will be upgrades. Battle, Paris, hopefully Adams and Jackson to go with Brown will completely change the secondary just like 2010. The dline will be fine because our young dts are bigger than freak and ego. Those guys plus Garrett will stop the run. Offensive players like Quinn, Noil and Dupre will be ready to play day one. People need to stop bitching. We all knew bama was better than us this year.

agreed Wisconsin will be tough auburn will probably beat us. I think the seat officially heats up for MILES next year. He'll have to fire Chavis next year to bad the Michigan state DC will probably already be hired.

I don't agree with this. We have an o-coordinator now. That will make a difference over the next few years. We need more talent and depth on defense. A decent defense shouldn't give up 38 to ANYONE. Ole miss only gave up 25. Let that sink in.

Yea the secondary could really use a shot in the arm of talent like we got in 2010(reid, mathieu, simon) to go along with what we already had(pp7, mo, taylor, brooks)

White, robinson and thompson are solid guys. Hoping mills can rebound. Dwayne thomas could be that ron brooks type blitzing off the edge since thats about as exotic as chiefs scheme gets

Eta...hope ricky jefferson gets a look at safety in spring. Kid is pretty athletic

We need a playmaker. We don't have anyone this year that can force turnovers or make a big sack when we need it
