BTW......you probably could care less. But why do you resort to name calling other posters. "Morons"?? Not cool my friend.
My thought was that Taylor and Hall want to see what Dean does and maybe they go elsewhere if for example Taylor commits and Dean stays then Hall would see it as a crowded room and go somewhere else. Just speculating
But it looks like Taylor may commit and Hall also based on CBs so they are not waiting for Dean apparently.
If we can get Taylor and Hall then losing Dean is not horrible by any means but if we could somehow get all three, wow!
Future is looking very bright. Campbell is exceeding expectations despite the Pitters posing as PSU fans here.
Understood. He didn’t take his entire roster from Iowa State. He took the players he knows can compete in the Big 10. There are players on his roster that can do it. The rest are players recruited to PSU and some other portal guys that can play in the Big 10. I don’t assume his players are not capable. I assume the opposite.
The Georgia insiders feel Dean is still PSU-bound. I think it is very possible we end up with all 4 WRs, which is beyond anyone’s wildest expectations.
Nobody had more swagger than John Wooden. He just hid it well behind that calm demeanor!Are you referring to the swagger that Saban and Belichik have?
With what is shaping up to be an excellent WR haul in '27 along with a HC and WR coach who can develop that position group.....well folks we could very well have a real passing game that challenges elite secondaries.
He gets credit for it regardless of how it came about. High likelihood that Adidas overpaid for both Tennessee and Penn State. Not uncommon when bidding against oneself.
Elite? Maybe on paper without playing a down. In reality, Not elite. Half of them won't start.
Who in this class is going to pressure the qb? Tough to win with no pass rush.
Sure but you can say that about every position. Who’s going to throw the ball? Who’s going to catch the ball? Who’s going to run the ball? Who’s going to lock down opposing WRs? Who’s going to shut down the run game? We got a lot of those answers. I do hope we can land some quality edges. But don’t act like we aren’t taking care of things pretty much all around. Remember, BGJ ignored WRs, LBs, and DTs for years which contributed to his team imploding when it did.
Ignored may not be the right word but failed or underperformed could be the right label. Ever since Parker Washington we have not had a productive WR so that is 3 years. LB has been middling and we saw the collapse with Rojas going down. Not great depth. DTs same story, inability to get a good pass rush or make disruptive plays, average.
That’s fair, I guess. Seems like a blanket statement though. I’m not sure the WRs weren’t talented, maybe just undercoached? Or underutilized? Those that transferred were productive elsewhere. The LBs may have suffered from stubbornness of the coaching staff to play the same players despite the younger guys flashing at times. Rojas looked great, when healthy. They brought in Campbell from the portal and he played fast and led the team in tackles last year. Tatsch looked good with limited opportunities. DTs were a mixed bag. Durant had a great Jr season, but dropped off last year. Gilliam flashed at times last year. I wish he would have stayed.
In the eyes of a fan boy anonymously passing judgement in his "home office." You should be such a fool.... independently wealthy and in possession of 6 Super Bowl rings as a HC and widely regarded as one of the best defensive minds in the history of the NFL with an additional 2 rings as a Giant DC.
Yes, fortunately none of us are fools like Billy B.
You don't agree that those who thought Freeman, Cignetti or DeBoer were coming here are "special needs" fans?
I think it's fair since I didn't specify an individual. In fairness (to your criticism) there are 2 or 3 here than qualify. So, I wear the guilt.
Agreed. According to the industry rankings he's close to catching up with Virginia Tech! -signed a Pitt Fan
Coach Wooden had a secret weapon ....a guy by the name of Gilbert. You can look it up.
Let's hope HCMC can win 13 games with no WR, LBs and DTs.
