Message: [QUOTE="SoBristol, post: 1963090, member: 485"] I believe Babers is speaking to his offense -- how long it takes to get everything functioning at the pace he wants, with every player knowing the system. As I hinted above, a skeptic would say it depends on who is our QB, how much we improve at RB & TE, who replaces AET and Estime, and whether there are a couple of new OL to upgrade what we have and provide at least a modest run attack. Year 3 -- some of the same questions, but more time to find answers. Yes, Year 2 could be a big improvement. There are 4 red-shirting OL to push the starters -- probably as good or better than Bryne and Adams. The recent RB commit (Pierre) has good size and is putting up huge numbers. Defense is back as you wrote, bigger and deeper than this season. We have no specifics about juco or post-grade help, but Dino might add 3 or 4 contributors from those ranks. If he can find that help, we are a lot closer than some see now. [/QUOTE]
