    No one has brought up Easons Lack of mobility? Could be an issue.

    Is his lack of mobility even a real thing?
    Haven't you heard? He doesn't have legs so yeah, there's a lack of mobility.


    Telly loving the pooty, and the watermelon juice, passing his aids in between shredding and the reefer.

    Ariel to ILB is the move. IIRC, (when) he played last year, it was mostly in-space/from depth. Results were mixed but he is the type of athlete we? need playing in the middle. Also, we're? down to 6 OLB's listed on the roster... 2 haven't even shown up yet.

    I'm not really worried about OLB numbers going forward. It would be nice to get a prototype SAM & BUCK every year, but when that doesn't happen I'd rather have a talented DT than a JAG OLB. Our coaches have adjusted well to where our talent is, playing 335 in base downs when we don't have great OLBs. Like Benning is basically going to be a OLB still on base downs, hopefully we just take him out on passing downs.
    To clarify, it was an observation, not an opinion or indictment.

    Last year, after Amadre left, we? only had 5/6 on the roster. To me, it’s indicative of a strategy + roster management change

    Disagree with Bush doing a good job last year. Where is this narrative coming from? C at best

    Disagree with Fuller sucking. He is pretty good but not a WR #1.

    AGREE on rest

    Fuller did not break a tackle last year. Which position do you want a guy who didn't break a tackle?

    Bush looked good to me and we had tons of people open, but Jake had a hard time doing anything. He wasn't perfect (Bush), but I thought he really improved as the season went on. Hard to do much when you can't throw more than 15 yards and everyone stacks the box and your QB shits himself.

    2nd half Rose Bowl Jake was as good as he's ever played because he stopped playing like a scared bitch and let it fly. And our dudes (even your boy Fuller) made plays on the ball (though Fuller still didn't break a tackle).

    I feel good about Bush... cautiously optimistic. But I can see how reasonable people would think otherwise. That's just my read of it.

    Fuller should be a slot except he can't break tackles or make moves after the catch.
    Apple Cup was also another reason for optimism IMO. CP mentioned after that the game plan went out the window and the offense got better as the game went on (coach platitudes aside).

    Apparently only snow simplifys our? offense :neutral:
    We only scored 28. Offense wasn’t terrible, but defense won us that game.

    Ya but, is Eason as cocksured as Haener? Haener is ready tanned, ready and rested.

    Chinned but Eason is far from a guarantee. I like talent and I'm glad he's here but QB's need talent and skill. He didn't have much of the latter as a frosh. Hopefully he developed it the two years since then. Thankfully he doesn't have to hit his ceiling to be a big upgrade. I'm cautiously optimistic.

    This is fucking Dawgman shit.

    You guys are fucking nervous for your date with a hot chick and going over her instagram pictures and being like 'she's not that hot, actually'.

    FOH
    I'm on the "Eason is going to kick ass this year" bandwagon, but let's not pretend we haven't seen the "unproven 5 star ends up sucking at college football" episode hundreds of times over by now.
    We’re talking about a potential improvement of epic proportion.

    Dawgman guys literally get everything fucking wrong.

    Henry Bainivalu will be the starter at LG. He barely fucking plays Tackle anymore you Doogman idiots. Wattenberg can fuck off for now. He'll get moved to Center and be our starting Center in 2020.

    Kyler Manu won't be here in the Fall. His scholarship is needed for the incoming Freshman class. I'm sure he graduates this Spring and will likely move on. Or he can stay without a scholarship if he wants to. Either way he's not touching the fucking field next season. I can't stand doogman retards acting like perennial back ups who suck are gonna play just because they're "veterans". He's not playing.

    Benning can play 3-tech and that's fine but he's not gonna be a starter next season like I fucking told you guys before. He's got to have beat out Bronson to be Levi's back up and that ain't guaranteed by any means. Mosiah is coming off his redshirt as well and Benning will have to hold him off and that kid is a young bull.

    NT depth will be Tuli, Taki, and Bandes. That's fucking nasty depth.

    Ngata to ILB is awesome. Better fit for him, adds speed and depth to ILB, and is another good sign about how the coaches feel about OLB depth. Like I said before, Tryon is the new starter at Buck. Bowman is the starter at SAM for now. They will be backed up by Zion and Latu. Latu will play significant snaps as a true Freshman. Trice will redshirt. ILB depth to start Spring ball will probably be:

    Wellington, Sirmon
    Tafisi, Ulofoshio
    Calvert, Ngata

    Stop being fucking stupid and tempering your expectations for Eason. He's one of the best QB's in the country and the best QB in the Pac-12. He's not inaccurate at all. Contrary to the perception of Georgia today, Eason didn't have a good WR corps to work with when he was there as a true Freshman. His favorite targets were his WTE and some speedy midget WR that looks like Jaydon Mickens. Seriously, chill the fuck out. How many WR's dropped passes his Freshman year? We don't know. How many times did he have to throw the ball away? We don't know. How good was his O-line? Not that good. What we do know is what we've heard about him since he's been here and word is he's been lighting up our secondary throwing to Freshman receivers. If he can light them up, he can easily light up the other secondaries in this conference. The offense will average 40+ points a game.

    We're going 13-0 and back to the playoffs bitches. And this time, will be competitive on both sides of the ball in the playoffs and will have an actual chance at winning a playoff game. Buckle the fuck up.

    Bandes better redshirt. Linebacker is the position group of concern. Let's hope Tuli is nasty. He will be heavily relied upon. Hopefully, Ngata is above 190 lbs at ILB.

    Eason should ball out, just give him a couple games to dial it in. He is a big timer, much-anticipated player. The hype is deserved. Spring ball provides some tingle this year.

    Win the conference..NOTHING ELSE MATTERS.
