Thigpen is apparently pretty impressed with the work so far by the older LBs (Fugate, Propst, Johnson, Sapp, and Brewer). He stated Johnson will be the MLB, and he will be the QB of the defense. Thig is also very aware of the work he has in front of him with this group.

This was also nice to see:



Night and day difference between this staff and the last staff. CBJ is truly building a family atmosphere.

To me, that's one of the huge benefits of a large part of this staff being familiar with each other. Usually creates a very loose, creative environment. Much easier to get everyone pulling in the same direction.

Even the guys from 'outside' the staff shouldn't have a hard time fitting in to the group in an environment like that.

Very positive thing, IMO.

If you're taking orders I'd like a monster stud LB...or three.

OL man. I don't know if a team has ever had all 5 OL leave for the NFL, but 2014/15 could be a rough year on the OL for us. Biggest need of this class, IMO. DT and LB are up there too.

I'd love for this buzz around the program to stay at this level the whole year but that's probably unlikely(hope I'm wrong lol). Hopefully none of these early commits will waver if we hit a rough stretch during the season. Seeing the way they're recruiting others makes me feel like we won't have to worry about that too much. I think having some of these legacies & instate guys will really help hold the class together if/when things get a little rough.

Agree.

Just dont want to forget lb's. IMO we need atleast 3. 4 would be better. Wouldn't complain if we took five.

Read the prescription: "Contact your doctor if you have booms lasting longer than 4 hours".

Looks like I'm having him on speed dial this weekend

I have been so good with my answers to these types of questions. lol.

I don't think Malone or Gaulden is that close, but I didn't think Kelly or Hurd were either. So right now we are watching, digging and talking because the recruiters (Wharton/Kelly) seem like they got something else going on this weekend.

This is the first time I've said this, and it won't be the last: TKJr. is the most important recruit we've picked up possibly in over a decade. Not the most talented, but the most important. I also appreciate the work Vic is putting in, but it's hard to overcome the sway of a high 4 star legacy recruit.

Kelly and Wharton are going to get all the legacies here. Kelly has such a deep love for the Orange, it's going to go a long way for this recruiting class, and on the field. I'm incredibly excited about the future!

Beyond the impact TKJ and Vic will have on this recruiting class, you have to love the fact that this will carry over to them being natural leaders of the team for at least a few years.

Butch Jones is Legit
That video is great, love the enthusiasm in practice. These boys will be ready to knock some fools out.

Ps: Paul Harris will be a great one
