Message: [QUOTE="DoctahLexus, post: 3857036, member: 6798"] Thank goodness we finally have a D recruit where playing from day 1 is a possibility! There is nothing wrong with recruiting high ceiling projects but we seem to have recruited nothing but those in the 2019 and 2020 classes (aside from Clary). It's not like guys who can play out of the gate aren't out there. I would love some new blood at D. This new unit when compared to Mellen Cunningham and Bomberry is only a little more likely to give up goals off the dodge, but 100x more likely to break down with off ball D and sliding. If our only answer is to start 2/3rds of the current unit next year (DePietro and Murphy) and move Kennedy (who also has off ball/team D issues) down to join them, then I would be very pessimistic. Would sound loads better if the line up was instead Caccamo, younger guy like Olexo who steps up or a portal pick up, and one of Murphy or Depietro, all while keeping kennedy and clary at LSM.
