1 - We have 2 QBs who can get it done. BH is looking much better and Etling won't be a drop off if an injury occurs. Etling reminds me of that Bama QB of a few years back who I hate (but he was good)
2 - Dee Anderson is the next Laquan Treadwell
3 - Little Buga is a good RB
4 - Savion is the next great one at DBU
5 - We are stacked at WR
6 - Godchaux may be our defense MVP

Dee was impressive, but was being guarded by a slower player. With Savion on him, would have had a different game.

Godchaux and Savion were truly standouts, and the nation doesn't realize how rediculous our WR's are, one starter wasn't even in the game.

I'm not as high on the QB position as you. I'm taking a wait and see approach, before I can crown these guys.

I think Etling looked a touch better IMO.

While he did get pushed around a few times, I was very surprised with how quick Chidi's feet were. He will be a good one once he figures it all out.

everything Harris throws is still high. Thaknfully we have tall WRs that can bail him out.

I was impressed as well but it will take a year to get to his potential.
The bigger news is that we have not even seen Double D - Drake Davis! I made the Treadwell comparison on him last yr playing at IMG

You're inferring this from a spring game? Seems like some faulty logic my friend

The wr talent will force Les to pass more. Frank Herron will make plays in this system also, looked good. X Lewis looks like he can be a Brandon Taylor type player for us in the future. Little brother, Lanard can play also, didn't see that coming, Savion can ball, don't like Duke at that Mlb spot, need someone bigger I think.

The size, athleticism and wingspan of the WRs is crazy

Savoin is a stud. Also can't wait to see what Aranda does with the DE/OLBs in his new scheme.

He is built like AJ McCarron. Strong lower body. Good pocket presence. He definitely looks the mold of a Bama QB. His arm is strong also.

WRs looked good
Harris was ok and really that's all we need there
Savion looked good

Nitpicking maybe but with 3 starters out on the OL the offense was able to get some yards right up the middle or off tackle. When Godchaux was in at nose he would slant one way for penetration and the hole was open on the opposite side. I assume a LB suppose to fill that hole but not smart enough to know. Kept thinking Bama and Arky would just keep pounding that middle.
Maybe I missed but I'd like to see Gilmore in at nose with starters with Godchaux back out at DE.
