Wayne Williams off the team

[JHarris44]

Where is Alex Hayes on the depth chart? I can picture him playing on the D line.

I could see that in Hayes...would love to see Lasker play anywhere but OLine...I know that Omari Palmer was a more celebrated D-Lineman in HS...but we kind of need him at this point on O. Foster seems like a big, stout, strong kid who could plug things up. Hell, if Denzel Ward is on the third team, I say give him a go. Maybe it'll spark him. Would hate to "waste" Thompson inside again. If Aaron Roberts doesn't win the starting job, why not.

The trainers will earn their paychecks this year. Barring any season ending injuries, keeping the line on the field the entire season will be huge. Hopefully the injury bug got it's fill last season.

Going to need to out score opponents this year. White knuckling doesn't appear to be an option.

Sometimes I just like to get things on the record. So when someone asks me "why weren't you saying we'd need to out score folks before the season started?!" I can direct them to this thread.

 

[Orange4]

Not a bad thought [and if not Foster, perhaps another OL who might be able to shift to the opposite side of the ball]. How's Foster's mobility speed?

Went back and looked at his hudl tape it's not great but not horrible. He would definitely play nose tackle and would be used to stuff the run. He's a big dude, hard to move him.

Guys, it's not that easy to just switch positions or go both ways. This isn't high school ball.

 

[Finwad32]

I do not want to see Hayes flip, bright future on the OL.

Broyld can play dline

This is the kind of BS post that gives you guys a bad rep.

1. Out scoring your opponent is the only way you win games. Pretty sure everyone agrees on that point.
2. There is a specific kind of glee you guys take in predicting things to go poorly. It's really a bad look.

Interesting, that's why I like OttoinGrotto 's comparison. Even though I think it's supposed to shine light on how unproductive both were, it's actually a good question.

3 catches 50 yds vs. 9 tkls and a FR. Most of WW's stats came during inconsequential time. QF's catch, although disappointingly 33% of his overall production, meant much more to the team.

So it goes for me, but, that's why this board exists...

One thing is for sure - they both did not pan out as we all hoped.

 

[orangeinjersey]

Stop.

He was a 6-5 300+ pounder who could do back flips. People were excited to see what that kind of athlete could do.

Better career - Wayne Williams or Quinta Funderburke?

or Ashton Broyld??

 

[Crusty]

or Ashton Broyld??

Broyld was leading receiver year before last.

 

[MSOrange]

Broyld was leading receiver year before last.

Yes while Broyld hasn't quite lived up to the lofty expectations, to say he belongs on a list with Wayne and Quinta is silly imho.

 

[money3189]

Broyld shouldn't be on this list. He's been moved to 4 different positions ( positions he never played ever in life) and has tried to make the most of it. He played hurt all last year. Even though it wasn't the proper way to show competitiveness he tried to play with a bad shoulder in the bowl game. Plus he has one more season to show, well atleast I hope he does

...AND he got rushed out onto the field as a true freshman, whereas he would have benefitted immensely from a redshirt year.

 

[julaw]

How about shifting to a 3-4? It might help preserve our DL depth... I could also see Thompson, Simmons, and Arciniega making awesome 3-4 pass rushers

 

[CUSU]

I remember the last time we played a 3-4... I would like to forget it.

"You guys"?

1. There's scoring 17 and scoring 35. Our D is going to be challenged, we need to score more points. A lot more.

If we try, and fail, at white knuckling our way to 6 wins I don't want to hear from people saying "we *all* thought the D would be OK" and "hindsight is 20/20".


2. Yeah, I revel in how much this program has struggled the past 15 years. I hated the 90s. Do you read your own posts?

Damn, I only read through three pages of this thread so I could write that line.

Yep.
