If Pickett or Woodland goes down, we have a weak secondary.



if that's the case we should have taken another CB

I don’t know who the punt returner will be. I am sure we have someone in mind. But I always worry about that since we were horrible under Kelly.

Do you think that in an effort to improve, you should ignore or deny your weaknesses or the mere fact that you have any?

Do you think the coaching staff should call off all practices because they don’t care about seeing and fixing weaknesses?

Damn strong and sensible comment on your part, my man

QB - Fine.
RB - Fine, but I am interested to see who takes the lead back duties. Kiffin will spread carries, but I think the Wisconsin RB is considered the "starter."
TE - Fine.
WR - Fine. Can't wait to see how these guys battle for targets. I think Jackson Harris can be a legit WR1.

OT - Think we'll be fine. Seaton is great. Need either Davis to step up or see Harper take over at RT.
OG - Fine. Maryland guy is plug and play and between the rest of the transfers and Thomas, I think we'll be fine.
C - Fine.

EDGE - Fine. I do wonder if someone (Reliford?) steps into the Pyburn role of doing the dirty work and not just pinning their ears back every snap.
DT - Fine.
LB - Fine. I am interested to see which sophomore steps into a more prominent role. Tons of talent and speed between Moses, Ross, and Braiker.

CB - Only concern. Confident in Corey, but outside of DJ and PJ, there's not much proven depth. Do we go more 3 safety put Delane or Cooley at the nickel? Do we trust Jackson on the outside and throw PJ inside?
S - Fine. Between Cooley, Spears, and Benifield, we have a good amount of proven talent. Then there's guys like Jimcolly that couid float, Delane that has potential, etc.
STAR - Fine. Baker will find someone. Probably Benefield/Spears.

K - Fine I guess?
P - Fine.
KOS - Hopefully fine. Not sure leg strength of guys on the roster
KR/PR - Would love to see Berry returning kicks and punts.

Only real question marks are 3rd CB, RT, and LG.

I still think we are going to struggle against really physical, teams that want to run the football with a mobile qb, Texas & Texas A&M in particular. But i think thats just about every team n sec as well...

Same here that’s definitely chemistry obviously, we had a “good” center, 2 5* young lineman, a ?proven? Guard from BG1 and still couldn’t run on a Junior high DL. I think Seaton RT is the real, Winston will improve, Center is set, the guards are the biggest ?marks. Harper, Baylor dude?, Tenn Center can play guard. IMHO I believe Solomon Thomas was a 5*# 1 IOL in the country. He was hurt all year has 4yrs left will eventually become an All SEC Guard.

Defense improved ( I think Brown and Anderson will impress as freshman) from last seasons great D.
Offense is QB unknown “but if OL is better I “see Berry and Caden having great years
Weak OL was root of all issues last year. Couldn’t run so play action was non existent and rest of offense plan was failure
One or two of WRs transferred in need to breakout

Kicker
Looks like we only have one kicker. Just kind of scary should he get injured and no replacement. Lane gonna have to go on campus and hold a tryout in that situation.
