NO, because we still have 3 spots left due to: Paulk (greyshirt due to ACL injury), Dews (greyshirt due to allowing him to grow physically) and Bryant (possibility of Academic Casualty). So, 3 spots will go to JUCO Dt, WR-Malone, & DT - Mosely

Apparently according to most of the folks on hear from yesterday, our only need is speed to fix the problem so we should be looking at the track teams at the high schools instead of the football players. Speed= instant wins, no coaching necessary.

When you are a 2* recruit and way undersized...you take a gray shirt (by a major program you like), if asked. If you think you can play and excel there, a greyshirt isn't a nasty term. It's a 4month delayed enrollment. Bryce Petty did it at Baylor.

I get that people don't care for the 3-4 after last year's meltdown, but the failure of the defense had nothing to do with the actual scheme itself and I'm not buying the supposed personnel problem either. The 3-4 is a fundamentally solid defensive scheme, Sal just did a terrible job teaching the players how to run it and then another terrible job calling it. We had the horses to run it, IMO. McCullers is a prototypical 3-4 NT, AJ is a 3-4 LB all the way & J. Smith and Maggitt are sized right for it as well, and C. Miller fits pretty well at the 3-4 DE spot. I know that's not the entire personnel package, but it should have been more than enough to run it with at least some success.

Dews will NOT g.s.!!!! He will either sign and be a part of '14 or he will go elsewhere. We might tell him to look around, I don't know, but he will NOT g.s.

I think the big problem with Sal's 3-4 was that we didn't have the CBs to play man-to-man on the outside which is what he liked to play.

I think the argument is more "no speed=instant losses" not "speed=instant wins". Statements are not equivalent.

He's 6'3 or 6'4 200lbs. That is not that undersized. Actually, that is exactly the size Raynoch was. I understand that was 15 years ago, but still not far off. Will he redshirt, sure, but not g.s.

I hope he ends up being a part of this class. His potential is exciting. To me, if you have a class of 30 commits you take a couple of flyers on projects to help down the road. That's how you build depth for the future....assuming they pan out. Hopefully Dews and E. Moseley and Big Mosley fit that bill, if they are all a part of this class.
