Message: [QUOTE="JeremyCuse, post: 3049279, member: 43"] A few quick thoughts on your post Salcido was on the radar before his Jr year break out, Staff hyped him up a lot his Soph year but it just didn't translate and he struggled with turnovers. He was to fast for the game so to speak, next year everything slowed down and he broke out. As for some of the other names you mentioned there is definitely some potential there but you have to evaluate on an individual basis. Nelson is a smaller attackmen in the mold of Cook who has shown some flashes when giving PT. That said he is going to be a Sr and is solidly behind Cook. It's hard to see him seeing any meaningful minutes this year outside of lopsided games unless there are major injuries. Berkman is the one with the highest ceiling based on his HS exploits. It appears he may have RS this year despite SU indicating he played in a few games. He is a QB type of attackmen ala Rice. His best chance for PT will be the following year once Rehfuss has graduated and that X attack spot opens up. I mean he could make a move this year but with Scanlan now on board and the staff real high on Cook it will be hard to breakthrough. Aburn is an off ball guy who like Nelson looked good in limited PT. He could challenge for the 3rd or 4th attack spot and I don't think anyone is writing him off. That said there is going to be a lot of competition and at SU its very easy to get recruited over. I think Aburn has potential but he's going to have to really make himself standout in the fall. I think hes a 50/50 guy on transferring out especially with a highly regarded crease attackmen from IMG on his way this fall as well. As for Seebold the jury is still out but the early returns haven't been promising. He's gotten 1 or 2 runs a game over the last few seasons with not a lot to show for it. I think the staff gave him a real chance to show what he had in the pre-season scrimmages last year and he struggled to make an impact (at least on the score sheet). With what SU has lined up at attack in 2020 and the possibility of them moving a guy like Levandowski to attack based on the midfield being loaded I think Seebold is the most likely guy to transfer out between now and the start of the 2020 season. That said he still has a shot to take that next step as SU definitely will play at least 4 attackmen regulary but with Scanlan here now and 2+ attackmen on the way in the fall plus Berkman off a shirt, it's going to take a herculean effort on his part.
