I was told by recruiting experts that he was terrible and we should play Wellington

I would not consider myself a recruiting expert, but i was on that train. granted i am an idiot.CuntWaffle said:I was told by recruiting experts that he was terrible and we should play Wellington

I still can’t fathom thinking a guy who makes almost every tackle is bad. Most of them weren’t Cort Dennison tackles after an 8 yard run either.
-
"But he gets draaaaaagged!" As if every tackle will instantly stop all forward momentum, especially with a barely 200 guy who makes up for it being fast as fuck.RoadDawg55 said:I still can’t fathom thinking a guy who makes almost every tackle is bad.

If he had redshirted and was holding down the middle of our defense right now, damn... -
His SR year he was solid in that department, no more draggingNoWarningJustDawg said:

BBK doesn’t tackle people as hard as Ray Lewis. Therefore he SUCKS.

Fuck. That’s a depressing, yet astute, poont. This D would look significantly different with BBK in there. He sucked until his Sr year, but he was fucking awesome last year.NoWarningJustDawg said:

Its fine to make fun of people who said BBK sucked, but feels like we should be focusing on the problem here, which is Bob Gregory. We should have a BBK level player every year at LB, we do at DB and DT.
Gregory is #1 by far on the needs to be fired list. Paopao and Bonapha might suck at recruiting, but at least they don't coach positions where that makes a huge difference. -
That’s kind of my point. For how “bad” BBK supposedly was, how sad is the current LBer position that they make him look like a Hall of Fame player by comparison.Neighbor2972 said:Its fine to make fun of people who said BBK sucked, but feels like we should be focusing on the problem here, which is Bob Gregory.

Secondary recruiting has always been strong, and DL seems to be well positioned for the future. So how is LBer such a wasteland? It is the worst position group on the team, and it’s not even close. -
Sorry. Poor recruiting should not be tolerated at any position. It's a basic requirement of the job. At least if you're serious about winning big games.Neighbor2972 said:Its fine to make fun of people who said BBK sucked, but feels like we should be focusing on the problem here, which is Bob Gregory.

I miss BBK. Y’all were dumb for hating on him all year. At least he could fucking tackle.

I’m hearing Pete is racist and gave him white OKG privilege.
-
Bbk drastically improved. Failing to recognize that he improved is dumb, not having criticized him originally.
-
calimo eifler at least looks like he is not in his third trimester when running out there

BBK took a huge leap from his Jr to Sr year.
Clearly Welly and Manu aren’t on that trajectory -
BBK as a sophomore was better than Wellington this year.NEsnake12 said:BBK took a huge leap from his Jr to Sr year.

He was better than Bierria and Victor his junior year. But still.Mad_Son said:Bbk drastically improved. Failing to recognize that he improved is dumb, not having criticized him originally.

Positionally speaking, probably true. He was usually in the right position to make a tackle, but there was a reason he got nicknamed “The Jockey”. He got dragged like crazy until he bulked up before his Sr year.RoadDawg55 said:

We do miss BBK. But in order of who we miss he's last IMO. Gaines, Rapp, Murphy, BBK. There it is.
Hell, I miss Jalen Johnson. -

Not having a dominate shutdown CB is so jarring. It’s been so long.
IMO in order of most missed; Murphy, BBK, Gaines, Rapp -
@whuggy get an avatar already! I’m thinking this one would work well for “whuggy”whuggy said:

Even tho he got dragged, being in the right position at least slowed the other person down. BBK was great at being in the right position, he was in on a large majority of the plays even if he didn't make the tackle himself. Right now the middle of the field is just wide open and even Hawaii took advantage of it.EsophagealFeces said:

Looks like Sarks guys being gone is finally catching up

I honestly don’t disagree. I’d love to have him as a RS Sr right now.2001400ex said:

Read the title as "I miss BBC."
Left disappointed. -
yeah, it's like "BBC!? click click click! ... damn ..." (leaves thread)Swaye said:Read the title as "I miss BBC."

Williams hurt us vs cal bouncing off of brown. It's a matter of time before it's exploited even more. Even Bryant who makes plays is set to be exploited vs teams with tight ends and/ or wr. We still have not played a team with a legit tailback. Safety and linebacker is an absolute mess right now.Houhusky said:

Our d line is not great but I think it has more to do with undersized guys trying to 2 gap.
