Future is Bright AF
Next year’s 2-deep. Bold is where we need portal help but will be sick. Caveat: I thought Durf is done after this year. Buddy disagreed. Would love to be wrong. Caveat: assuming lots stay and Jedd isn’t in Gainesville.

did we just take one of Oregon’s offseason championships when it’s still October?

FFS check for updates, you're killing me.

You want to use spreadsheets? I’ll give you some stats for your spreadsheets:
You currently average 0.62 posts per year since joining HardcoreHusky.
Post more. -
awfully warm for October…2024. Coleman and Boston and maaaaaybe Prysock will look at the NFL. McCree should be the LT. Durfee is a senior but can get another year. Dixon is done. Will surely be a lot of portal guys.

Me and Canadad talked to the Parker twins dad at the game on Saturday. He said Jayvons achilles surgery is done and he'll be gtg for summer. Armon ready for spring. Was very happy they get to play together next year
Was rocking one of the boys PAC12 champ rings which looked pretty sweet
-
Don't sweat it, we'll stack the case as always.
-
Coleman is gone for sure
-
Name your spreadsheets, fucko.

trying to catch up bruh.

didn’t know that was a thing.

How did you get past the language barrier?

Can't wait to see which eight of these guysms are still on the skwaad next year!
-
Unless we absolutely fuck in the portal, I don't see a major talent upgrade for next year, certainly not on that spreadsheet. Lots of unproven guys replacing current starters.
-
We need to just assume Durfee is hurt every game at this ooint
His bio says senior…. Maybe he has another year. I don’t know. but I’ve given up on the guy at this point.
-
There's alot of very talented true and redshirt freshman this year that will be ready to rock and roll next year (Williams, nearly the entire O-line, DeGraaf, Reynolds, House, Bryant). If we snag solid a solid OL, DL, WR, and LB in portal, this is a top 10 team.
-
But will they be ready to rumble?
-
Projecting a year and especially years ahead isn't really possible in college football anymore for the most part. Coleman and Boston are guys that beyond just going to the NFL early could field offers from other programs. Demond even too.
Durfee is a senior but I think the deal is if he wants to he can likely get 2023 back with an appeal and play two senior years.
Even if Coleman and Boston stay (I think Coleman is likely gone and Boston like 50-50) the team has a lot of rebuilding spots, especially on the defense and we'll be pinning a lot of hope on guys like Demond and Mohammed. Probably a Top 25 team though, especially if they finish strong. Let's do that for now though.

I believe the term is LOADED!
-
Michael Buffer taking over the stadium PA system confirmed for 2025. You heard it here first.
-
I thought we were able to keep our high-end guysm once they proved what they were. Rome, MPJ, Jalen, etc. We just won't pay for unproven kids. We just won't.
-
Probably Boston too

Lose @ Iowa 13-10 and the future won't look as good.
Regardless, pretty good take at the two deeps and Paki Finau could slide in at LG with Mamelaar moving to RG. Watkins Jr. has good size but not the ceiling that Paki does.
Boston may stay as repeatable years are more important to NFL scouts.
Elinneus Davis may be starting next year, I like him a lot.
If Durfee leaves or can't get healthy, Edge concerns me. We(?) won't have a bigger Edge who is a 3-down guy (Ward is a good pass-rusher but teams could run at him if he plays running downs too much).
LB is a question mark since who is the run stopper there? House looks good for a true frosh but he's not a big guy and neither is Devin Bryant. The Michigan transfer (Hayden Moore) will be a RS-Soph but could be a depth player, I'm not sure.
My shopping list would have a prioritize a road-grading RG, a big TE to complement DeGraf, possibly a big WR if Boston leaves, a stud Edge (would cost top $$$$), and a thumper Senior LB since Gregory and Inge didn't recruit well there in the 2021, 2022, and 2023 classes. Zadarius will likely get some PT but tough to rely on frosh and sophs.
If a Sebastian Valdez-like player is available, definitely grab him at DT since Sagapolu could decide to move on and the Parker twins may not be fully healthy for the start of 2025.
-
so pretty much all positions?
can’t decide which of these is better sooo… abundance.
And you 3, again.

CAn't believe I'm doing this in mid October, but here goes:
-Closing strong would be awesome. Get to best bowl possible and start Demond and have him play well and build excitement.
-Assume Coleman is gone. RBs have short shelf lives. I have no idea how the NFL feels about him so assume there's a small chance if he's a Day 3+ guy you can give him an NIL which is better.
-Agree Boston needs to come back unless he can get a for sure first round grade. Odunze, Polk, McMillan made a lot of money proving it their second big years over leaving after 2022.
-Depending on the situation I wonder if TE Moore can redshirt or get a year back, if he wants, I know he's old.
-Big questions on defense, especially since Belichick could leave and we actually have a ton of seniors there.
-True that in the Big 10 we're gonna need more big thumpers in the front 7 than we did in the Pac-12. Gonna have to hit the portal there.
-
I can’t see Boston leaving after one good year unless he doesn’t see Williams providing the passing game he’ll need to impress. Second year in this system and he could be putting up TMac type numbers.
-
No offense but what's all the excitement in Demond Williams? He seems like a poor man's Fafita who's a poor man's Kyler Murray who probably has at least 2-3 inches on both of them.
-
The coaches are keeping it really conservative with him in the sense he isn't being asked to push the ball down the field throwing like Rogers does.
The runs, screens, and tricks plays are all fine. We have no idea how good he is at dropping back and throwing intermediate and long routes.
He is probably decent to good at it, but we don't know.
-
Thanks. If I'm being honest, his throw back across the field looked like a WR trying to throw it as hard as he can on a trick play. It didn't look like a potentially starting QB making that throw. I hope I'm wrong but he looks very little out there.
