Isn’t that what we’ve done for like the past 3 years? It’s just what happens. We have just been waiting for the offense to level up.dawgs206 said:
I meant 2020 when I said next year. LB’s from this class need at least a year. Even if they are so-so, we’ll have an insane D. Gordon, Hampton, Irvin, and Taylor, if he stays (I think he could leave) at CB/S, and Molden at nickel is crazy talent. Cam, McDuffie, and Asa as RS frosh. The line is set with our two previous classes. We just need Calvert, Hammer, and Sirmon to step up and anything less than a top 5 D in the country is a disappointment.HillsboroDuck said:
Too early for the true frosh LB's to make a huge impact. 2020 defense will be special. Real talk.dawgs206 said:
I think next year we will have our best DB grouping we’ve ever had. If the young class of LB’s we signed this year is as good as advertised, next year could be the best defense we’ve had in a long time. The talent on all 3 levels is absurd.chuck said:The corners and DL are going to be amazing. Gordon and Hampton seem to be locked in a battle for the one side. I think Gordon is a freak and biund to star on this defense at some point. If Hampton can hold him off, and Taylor is better than both as I'm getting the feeling he is, then holy shit.
The DL is reloaded too...no longer any concern. The redshirt frosh are beasts. They're ready. -
RB has been probably the quietest position group this spring, which is concerning given that Gaskin is no longer back there.

RB is always quiet because we don’t do much live work. I think we have enough to do well, but we shall see. There’s no sure fire guy, but I think if Salvon takes the next step he can be sensational.whatshouldicareabout said:RB has been probably the quietest position group this spring, which is concerning given that Gaskin is no longer back there.

If Ahmed can run between the tackles, I think we'll be fine, but he struggled against better defenses last year (Cal, tOSU, Utah, and Utah).Dennis_DeYoung said:

In our 1 game without Gaskin last year, Pleasant had most of our carries and was most effective, but I don't see him being our #1. Maybe Cam Davis? -
Despite the initial ridicule Dick Newt seems solid, tooDennis_DeYoung said:

I fucking hate that. Should have been another Haener pick 6

I'm not sure why people think Ahmed is going to suddenly develop the requisite RB instincts needed to excel. The guy has no feel for reading blocks and is not going to become an effective inside runner after two years of showing no ability to do so. I have a lot more confidence in one of McGrew, Pleasant, or Dick becoming an every-down back than I do Ahmed. He's a total weapon, but he's limited.Dennis_DeYoung said:

Isnt Tafisi supposedly a stud too? The LB group is going to be really strong. Gregory is a good coach and a good enough recruiter, I'm a fan. Get the guy away from special teams thoughdawgs206 said:
