I’d pass. Kid has had the luxury of passing to two potential 1-3 round draft picks at WR.

Not sure he would do well here with our bottom of the SEC WR group.

Get someone that doesn’t have that luxury and still puts up decent numbers.

Not if RADARIOUS has anything to say about that!

Can’t wait to see him take the field in 2 years

You say this but I also wonder how much of the WR issues were on them and how much was on Nico. Hindsight being what it is now and now that the Nico blinders are taken off, there is enough evidence out there to show that Nico wasn’t the stud QB he was sold to us as. He had tons of overthrows to WR with at minimum 5 yards separation, he struggled to extend plays at several key moments, and his quickness at moving the offense along, something that’s crucial under Heupel’s schemes, was lackluster.

I’m not saying he was solely to blame, as there are definitely issues with our receivers, but I think it’s unfair to cast all that at the feet of the receiving core and cast them as bottom of the barrel.

You didn’t see the context. Implying that JH can’t recruit because we’re not finishing in the top 3-5 recruiting classes yearly. The best numerically we’ve ever done was Butch’s 2015 class with 33 signees. Heupel was close to that this year with 10 less signees. That’s what I was referring to

I don't think we should view Dooley, Jones, or Pruitt as excellence in recruiting or coaching.

Based on numbers, butch did well in 2014 and 2015. In respect to numerical rankings and “star gazing”, that was the topic

Well, let’s just land Robertson and call it a day.

He hasn’t had the luxury of throwing to NFL WR prospects, and he still puts up good numbers.

That should be choice #1

 

[swchandler1988]

On the most recent VQ podcast they were talking about positions to add players in the portal and they mentioned WR and DL, but when asked about DB specifically Austin Price surprisingly said “no”.

If he thought Boo was leaving he wouldn’t have said that IMO…

Probably bodes well for Jermods recovery too

Nice Hybrid. You all catching them deep on live bait or on top?

15-25ft. on live shad. They wouldn't touch cut bait. They preferred the bigger shad over the livelier smaller ones.

Same, but Luke chatter is quiet. I am also fine with Rocco if we go that way.

Wouldn't Rocco Becht currently be at Iowa State and in class?

Or was this poster on X trolling?

Nice rack. Would look excellent on my wall...

I don’t think we even know if it was in Tampa. I saw a comment under that saying the plane was in West Palm, and was flying back today or yesterday.

If it’s west palm, it could’ve been a coach visiting Freeman, since he’s visiting soon,
