Recruiting Forum Football Talk IX

Yeah, I think Alan Williams (is it?) was doing the bulk of the coaching at that position. Ostensibly to free up Banks to concentrate on coordinating.
At least that's what I may have read somewhere.
If that is the case, then let both of them go, because it did not work! The position group sucked, and obviously the coordinating and defense in general sucked.
 
The 2 games that have me most worried about this season and moving forward.

Arkansas (after a bye with them having a new HC)
Vandy to end the year in Neyland with a ranked win

But also some positive games

Georgia (we didn't win, but Heupel & offense lit up Kirby)
at Florida (the most complete game we played all year, seemed the focus was there at every level that was an example of how good the team could have been)

I'd like to stay optimistic, but unfortunately with all the changes having young talent that develops is never a guarantee anymore...so being one of the youngest teams in the SEC and finishing 8-4 isn't quite as easy to spin as it would have been in years past. Hope we get a good bowl game and a matchup where we can show out.

Basketball season in full swing now!
Yeah the second half no-shows are concerning. As are the weeks coming off a bye. As are road games still. As is dropping the home season finally to permanent rival.

Caleb herring will split time with Ross. Don’t see us taking a portal guy there. Jmo
Weathersby/ Dye/ Gentle
Campbell/Robinson
Hobbs/Utley/House
Herring/Ross

Carter/Bolton/Burns/Brayden Rouse
Telander/Perlotte/TJ White
Spillman/Harmon/Anes

That’s your front 7. Gibson, Redmond, Farooq, Poteat and Walton in the secondary, need some big portal additions there. Maybe McCoy or Hood come back after their draft grades, who knows.
 
I’d be fine rolling with Faizon if he is the best. Get a new DC and elite players on defense. Let the defense carry you through half the year until Faizon figures it out more and win 10!
Better have top defense in the country ala 2024 if you’re gonna throw a freshman to the wolves…

Anyone get a feeling that maybe all this stuff that's coming out now about Lane Kiffin now that he is leaving Ole Miss was exactly what he was running from? But it's a brand new leaf, y'all. He's changed. LSU is going to be different.
They got looser coeds and 4 times the amount of booze and cocaine. Temptation gonna get the best of the devil on the bayou.

He won’t but Telander has to go. Would be a great G5 linebacker but not SEC. Perlotte, Rouse, Spillman, and White will have more speed. Tennessee lacked speed when players broke away from the DL.
