We won’t have anyone better than Penn when three backers are in game


He improved somewhat last season, but Whit Weeks, Swinson and obviously Perkins are our best 3 LB's imo.

Swinson and Penn are not competing against each other. It’s all situational because you will see Perkins, Weeks, and Penn in the game at the same time, and I’m just saying we don’t have someone that will take Penn’s spot in that situation. Will also see a good bit of only 2 of those guys in at one time.

hated to see Gilbert go and he would’ve been a lock to be a starter


Don't let something as trivial facts get in the way of a good RANT!

When people leave a cult those left behind tend to ignore them regardless of how they felt about them or what they are worth to the program.

Sage is back playing his true position, he's a better safety than he is a CB and going to do very well this season.

He was a bad tackler at A&M and had injury concerns.


Sounds like he will fit in here.

Nowhere yet.

Sounds like he may of had grade issues when trying to transfer. Oregon was supposedly the destination.

Portal rankings can drop off a lot steeper than high school rankings after #1. Usually won't see the best 10 of any position at the same time. I think Portal Rankings are overrated because of the issue with quality depth throughout.

High school players are evaluated for years and their rankings evolve over time, but when a player enters the portal they have a ranking in seconds with little thought.


Those high school evaluations don't just disappear.

Just the thought of Burns, Sage and Penn starting just screams 40+ pts allowed and endless miscommunication and bad angles.

Penn had some nice games last year and Sage improved greatly.

Man, I agree! These guys running down Penn are talking about a near future NFL starter, and they just don’t know it.
