Focus now shifts to football season. 2015 looks similar to 2011

#1 It fits into the NC year cycle (2003,2007,2011,2015?)

#2 The preseason arrests of players including the starting QB, just like JJ in 2011.

#3 The young and talented roster as a whole looks strikingly familiar to that of the 2011 roster.

Difference is, we have a new DC. People seem to be over looking that. We are going to a new scheme. How players pick that up will be a major issue. We don't play 3 cupcakes in a row. We play one, then off to Miss St. on the road.
We have the talent, no question about it....but the jury is still out of what our def will be like.
Besides that, it does remind me a lot of 2011.

Could happen if AJ is the permanent backup QB.

We started the 2011 season against Oregon. They're no cupcake.

We need to stop comparing future teams to the 2011 one. All of the NC teams we've had were unique in their own way. This team doesn't have to be similar to any of them to make their own mark on history.

Don't forget the Perrilloux arrest/suspension in 2007.

Steele said he wasn't looking to overhaul the defensive scheme.

Oregon was a cupcake?

No Chavis. That will hold you back.

This season is a complete question mark for me. We could surprise and have a terrific run or we could go 8-5.

With coaching changes and QB situation, it's a guessing game.

4 losses minimum. 6 losses would not shock me.

No, Chavis will hold y'all back. If that is even possible with that shitfest y'all call a defense.

The best thing about Chavis going to A&M is that most coaches have figured out Chief's scheme. Kevin Sumlin was the only one too clueless to know how to attack it. Now he's going to A&M where the defensive talent is less. Sumlin hired Chavis not to fix A&M's defense but to get rid of the thorn in his side he couldn't figure out.

To his surprise, he'll learn that Chavis was paired with one of the best secondary coaches in the country who played a massive role in stopping the Ags. Now adding a better LB coach and a better DL coach will make us weaker.

We return a ton of guys on defense who have played against A&M. They know what to expect and how to defend against that gimmick crap.

I dont't see it yet. We had a much better season the year preceding 2011. In 2010, we went 11-2 and crushed A&M in the Cotton Bowl with a team made up almost entirely of freshman and sophomores. It was quite evident to me that 2011 was going to be very special. 2014 did not give me the same vibe. I'm not going to get too excited about 2015 just yet.
