It's a recruiting philosophy that doesn't make any sense. What are we doing with all these gadget backs/WRs? I don't see a plan. Fredericks/Strickland are the backs of the future. What exactly is the plan. We have one WR who is ACC level, a couple depth guys and a handful of gadget players that are roaming Swiss Army knives but not being taught to excel at anything.
Those gadget backs are showing up everywhere. Having players that can run and catch is on every coach's wish list.
So let's just wait another few years to see if it works?
Do you think they haven't been trying to recruit WRs?
Why defend anybody this year when it's the third straight year of diminishing returns? Different excuses each year, some justified most not so much.
Ish was a 3 star I believe.
First, it isn't even three years yet. Second, the entire defense has had to be rebuilt as well as the offense and that takes time.
I'm 50 and the last time I saw it was McNabb. The past 15 years have tried to suck the life out of me
SS has had the defense for seven years! Losing coaches also rarely finish out five years.

To your last point, should we admit to the recruiting hurdles we'll likely always have and go to to a system/scheme offense like Johnson runs at GT? I've never liked the chop blocks but Navy and GT seem to punch above their weight pretty much every year.
Have a nice evening.
You have 2 guys in Custis, and Enoicy who at least bring size, and could be used instead of Parris across the middle. But we have 2 guys like Cornelius, and Avant taking snaps, and are a complete disaster as backup WR's. When they are in the game, Eric has no-one to pass to, as shown by the combined 7 catches they have in 8 games. Just because people do well in the preseason, doesn't mean they can play at this level. We found that out last year with our QB's.
Oh come on. We might have a better guy in 2016. Dungey is good but he ain't mike Vick.
Totally 1000 percent agree.
Probably true, but that would be pretty good!
Neal would be a great asset but you can't keep a coach worrying you'll lose a player. If a change needs to be made they have to do it. If not ride out shafer and welcome his players. You never know. Coyle may bring someone in that Neal likes and still wants to come.
FSU had 4 Ishmaels that could also run and create separation, and stiff arm our hapless db's and throw them around like children. Ish is a nice player but back in the glory days he would have been our 2nd option. Not sure how much he even plays on FSU...
Sigh, just sigh. I'm so sick of people quoting stuff out of context. No where did I stat we needed to keep HCSS because of Mo Neal. We where talking about types of players.
