Message: [QUOTE="Finwad32, post: 1409972, member: 651"] The only thing I want to add to this is: I don't believe Jarrod West was a guy that should've been carrying the torch for the group. Yes, he is the 7th all time leading receiver, and he had a commendable year last year in the face of a lot of issues. But, his sophomore season, as probably the 3rd or 4th option on the team was nearly as productive as his SR. season. And, a big part of that production, was because nobody knew what to do with Lemon and Provo, then Sales, so I think alot of his production came from the fact that defenses were accounting more for other targets. But, this is not something that was Marrone's fault either. West was a highly regarded recruit, whom many here thought would come in and be an option as a True FR until he broke his foot. He was literally, one of our only targets this past season. Ish stepped up as the season went on, but, other than that we had literally nothing. Ben Lewis was our 3rd leading receiver. Love the kid, but, our numbers were anemic. Honestly, I think our WR core is better now than it has been in awhile. Alec Lemon was invaluable, but Ish and AC on the edge with Brisly in the slot sounds alot better to me than Sales and West to go with Lemon. That's not even bringing Ashton Broyld, Erv Phillips, Ben Lewis and Jamal Custis into the fold. Also, Avant and Adly could contribute as well. We are deeper as a group now than before. I had a coach tell me that the single biggest injury this past season was not Terrell Hunt, it was most likely Broyld and Brisly. Our offense was predicated on what they could do in the slot and with the bubbles in a lot of scenarios. They were the personnel that the offense was going to depend on mostly. [/QUOTE]
