Definitely not anyone on the defensive line. They were stacked

worst starter? relative to what?

this is a dumb argument

the 2003 team was our 2nd best ever. only behind 2019.

best defenses were 2003 and 2011.

O line and D line were fricking stacked and could impose their will. classic saban teams.

WR and TE and Rb was stacked.

this whole argument is dumb

u cannot compare a DE with a kicker. or WR. maybe he means where were we the weakest depth wise? like we can remember that depth chart.

Lionel Turner had some WTF moments earlier in the year. Especially in the loss vs UF but he did get the sealing sack in the natty.

So, I don’t know.

The thing that made me so proud of those teams from 2000-2012 were they were so Louisiana heavy on talent. Alexander and Travis Daniel’s were the only guys on defense not from LA

Not to derail your thread, but look at how many Louisiana boys are on that roster.

Insane amount of talent in this state.

Relative to the rest of the starters.

You have 22 starters, who would you rank #22.

The only “weaker starters” were situational guys who didn’t always start or play a ton of snaps. You’ve got 13 staters listed on offense for example when there are only 11 on the field. Skyler Green is a more impactful player than Steltz but he’s not a better FB or blocker. We had 3-4 different starters at RB, JV didn’t start until after the Florida game. Eric Alexander didn’t start every game, Adrian Mays started a couple. Randall Gay started the season as CB2, Ronnie Prude was the nickel until Daniels moved from safety to corner and Gay moved to Nickel. So are we counting those starters as well? If so I’d go with Ronnie Prude as our weakest starter that season.

During the call of the Bluegrass Miracle, Jim Hawthorne accidentally said Jack Hunt's name instead of Devery Henderson. So it has become a running gag here.

Relative to the other starters. What could be more obvious than that?

What do you think is meant by “Worst President”?

Not only can you, it is done every day on this board. People are always posting, “What’s our weakest position group?” or something to that effect.
