Most of the guys who have lost their stripes (maybe all?) have been here since the spring. So they've had more time to prove themselves and build rapport with their mentors, etc.
As far as K-Mac goes - I get the feeling he has a lot to work on in terms of technique. Sounds like he has a great attitude and is a hard worker who is ready to learn - But he's been on campus for a pretty limited amount of time.
I also think he was so physically superior to the guys he played against in HS (size, strength, leverage, etc.) that he hasn't really needed to refine his craft and hone technique. This is just going off a few comments I've heard from the media. Could be way off.
Regardless, I would guess his stripe will be coming off fairly soon...
I tried to tell people this and got flamed. They said he's "basically been training with NFL coaches so his technique is probably better than half the guys we have on the team."
He's still unreal and will be an eventual 1st round pick. and most likely starts this season. But we have to keep in mind that he's still a freshman and didn't play senior year in high school
So are y'all calling Khalil a bust yet? Some posters have already labeled Dillon a bust. The football acumen of some in our fan base is unreal.

I know for sure 6-7, but haven't heard about any since then. I can google various articles but haven't found a complete list. Is the list below right? If so, what's the scoop on Kahlil? I would've thought he'd have lost his.
