The reason will be because our 2017 & 2018 class is substantially better than the guys that’ll be remaining from the 2016 & 2015 classes.

So revisiting that first play against utah on the pod, I've come up with a new theory - while Petersen is prone to those sorts of shenanigans I don't think he did it just for the sake of being clever. I think he was trying to manufacture a big play and light a fire since we're a slow starting team. While the impact was exact opposite and put us in a hole I think this was an attempt to address a very specific issue. Of course it is obvious that explosive plays aren't manufactured by just calling a bubble, reverse, or bomb, but are a natural outcome of executing against weaknesses that exist in the defense.
I get it, but the reason we start slow is that we—as a program—have no swag. I'm hopeful this will change with Jake leaving.
Or maybe Jake gets so angry at us that he actually starts to have a chip on his shoulder and gets some swag.
I agree completely. Pete doesn't want emotion, he wants robotic execution. Pete is effective Ty.
God I love Pete. Angry Pete, Excited Pete, Emotionless Vulcan Robot Pete, Sarcastic Kickass Presser Pete...abundance.

Gotta think Chin is gone. He hasn't played a single snap. Might be the only healthy scholarship player that's already used a redshirt to not play a down other than Soderberg. He's another, but that's a given... What's a kicker that can't kick.

Don't forget Mike Neal and Matt James.
I didn't realize matt James was still on the team... nfi who Mike neal is. Double first names though so good riddance

Agree on Chin, Soderburg, James and Neal as obvious couch sale options. If Sirmon and Tafisi clearly outplay the other LBs this spring, wouldn’t be surprised if Beavers or Wellington pull a Eifler late spring/early summer. I wouldn’t be shocked at a departure in the secondary or running back room either.
Some other possible couch sales are Burleson (buried in the depth chart and can graduate), Scrempos (medical retirement?), Rice (with Ngata, Benning, Amandre and Tryon over him...), maybe Manu or Wellington, whoever is lower on the depth chart.

QB - we are probably staying pat, though it's somewhat possible Haener leaves. RB - McGrew might be on his way out, but I wouldn't bet on it. If Newton passes him, then yes. WR - Chin, Baccellia, Pounds... I suspect those guys are all in various stages of thinking about leaving. I think Bynum and Ty will start to dominate PT as the year goes on. TE - Mike Neal is not allowed to play. Not bad for ol' Mikey because his girlfriend is insanely hot and he can sing like an angel. OL - The merciful end is here with Sosebee and Matt James finally kicking off. I doubt anyone else leave (edit: forgot about Dev). DL - Scrempos could grad transfer or medically retire. Bowman could probably get some BHS record keeping to bring him back for a sixth year, but I doubt he presses it. OLB - Myles Rice probably won't love seeing Joe Tryon and Ariel Ngata leave him in the rearview mirror given he's so far from home. LB - We don't have anyone here, but I pray Manu transfers to Pocatello. DB - Isaiah Gilchrist might hear the call of the Bobcat.
