Message: [QUOTE="denterth, post: 725915, member: 3676"] The "chest puffing" was needed after you said less than a quarter of Penn State starters would start for Cuse. That's an big time insult for a team that's returning a lot of talent across the board. You started this debate by saying only 5 guys would start, so how about you begin and tell me what Syracuse players would come in and start right away? Anyway... I'm not an expect on the Orange but guys have a loaded backfield. Smith and Gulley were impressive last year and while I think Zwinak is a great back the depth behind him has yet to be proven but has a lot of potential in Belton and Lynch. QB is a draw. You lost your two most productive wide outs in Lemon and Sales and while Jarrod West showed some promise, I'll take Robinson, Carter and James easily over any of your targets in the passing game. To be honest I don't know too much about your oline but I know Pugh is gone and Penn State is going to have one of their best units in quite some time. Smith and Urschel are studs. Defensively Sprull and Dyshawn Davis are great, but Glenn Carson could be the most underrated LB to every play at PSU (that's what happens when you play with Mauti and Hodges your entire career). Carson would definitely find a way to start if the teams merged. Mike Hull played a ton last year, specifically in third down situations, and he's going to have a good year in my opinion. You only have one returning starter on the defensive line. DaQuan Jones and Deion Barnes would start without a second thought. I know you lost Thomas in the secondary and besides Keon Lyn I don't know much else about your CBs and safeties, that's why I only noted Adrian Amos. The guy can play safety, CB and might see some time at LB this year. Saying Cuse would only start 5 PSU players is still ignorant. I don't know how you got that number. I pride myself on being realistic about my team, let's see how you do trying to justify your number. [/QUOTE]
