And a lot of DBs from Oregon.

Agreed. Not many guaranteed contributors in this class thus far, forget sure "starters".

This feels like a good signing after watching our kicking this season.

Switching subjects - Gabe says we may still have more dry powder than a lot of teams we are competing against, given we have not gone big on many signings.
Are there any big d-line targets still out there? Cornerbacks? O-lineman?

The sacks were great but he didn't make enough plays behind the line and tackles overall vs the run to get the money he is reportedly asking for. Double digit TFLs is the expectation at his position. He came close but shedding blocks vs the run wasn't something he excelled at. Smith had 4 fewer TFLs and 7 fewer tackles on far fewer reps.


This. My Dad and I had an argument soon after the Bama game about the D-ends play.
I argued Young was the best player on the line by far, because he was causing havoc for the offense on a more plays even if he did not have Wilson's sack numbers. I felt like Young and McClellan were creating more hurries, some of which Wilson cleaned up.

My dad disagreed, but he was still sore at Young for hanging over Simpson long enough to give the refs an excuse to throw the weak taunting flag.

Is the safeties coach still on staff? The NEEDED churn is not done yet if he is.

Wonder if the K State crowd will notice the celebrations here with his departure and get a bit nervous????

Re: Tenn fanbase not upset they are leaving.

You have to keep in mind the Tenn fanbase is as delusional as the Ark fanbase and upset at their coaching staff every year they do not finish as National Champions.

I just remembered. Simmons is a lefty, isn't he? Right Tackle is the premium blindside tackle.

I liked the idea of getting a reliable LT and moving Green back to guard. I think he could have made a run at being the best guard in college football. That gets you into the first round of the draft.

That said, you get a lot more chances at getting into the first round as a left tackle. And more chances of getting in the top half of the first round. That is the reality of the situation. I understand Green being stubborn about sticking at LT.

I do like the prospects of putting a second right tackle in a row in the draft, maybe in the first couple rounds.

Is Atkins worth getting excited about? He comes from a good offense and was the blind side protection for a sought-after QB.

Is he a big part of the reason for all that, or was he just a guy that filled that spot?
They were discussing this on The Dan Patrick Show the other day.

Talking heads still get more excited over unproven 5-star recruits than transfers that have excelled in college for 3-years that came in as 3-stars. For too many, that initial rating gets locked in to their heads and they can't see past it. Even with real production to actually judge.

Actual production over potential has a strong argument.
Huh. Thanks Bass and 98.

What a big turnaround. Hope Stone and Pierce stay healthy and on the court.
Have not paid a ton of attention to the Bball team while football is still going on.

Hoping you guys can explain what is going on. How can a team that looked so completely incompetent and poorly coached against KU and especially Illannoy summon the functionality to compete, much less beat, Florida and Kentucky???

What is going on??? After the Illini game, I thought we were looking at a 1 or 2 win SEC season.

Auburn's D was consistently excellent this year, period. Reason enough to want players from that D. Pretty confident we got an extremely steady playmaker with the linebacker we signed.

The way Auburn's D kept performing this year as their offense kept losing games was commendable. Suggests most, if not all, the kids on that D had some mental toughness and competitiveness you want.

I don't mind taking chances on contributors from that defense.

Kind of has the feel of MU fans's love for Josey, LaDamian, and a lot of the 07 team.

Just stumbled across this on the Rant

Ole Miss fans wishing Simmons the best

Appreciate the good wishes from you all for him. It's good to see. Not every player gets the fans behind him like that.
I have read the kid is a bona fide genius. Hope that translates to football IQ next season.
