True Freshmen

[Oldvoldad]

With all the portal noise, what true freshman has a chance to really contribute in the two deep?

 

[Rocky Top T]

No offence, but we got more issues than talking about freshman

Fazion has to be licking his chops

There's threads about those too

Why even look at high school kids anymore? Id just buy upperclassmen that have film in college. Isn't that what Miami and Indiania did?

In to say "I miss the old days when freshmen couldn't play. Letting them play ruined the sport for me......"

90% of freshman don't contribute much.

They are an investment bound to the dying breed of old-school recruitment. They cost millions of dollars, but produce little.

The new model: Bring in experienced, older and proven veteran players. Do it on the cheap. Star ratings mean basically nothing.

Build your team from nothing overnight.

No actual "coaching" needed.

Think about it... who was tougher/stronger/smarter... 18 year old you or 22 year old you?

SEE: Indiana.

Faizon, Joel Wyatt, Luka wolf the tight end, Blair and Osenda at OT. All the backup db spots can likely be overtaken by a freshmen. Farooq, Walton, Poteet, Merritt and a nickel back. And some freshmen on the d line can break into the rotation

He'll be the starter unless Aguilar comes back.

At this point I don’t even give a damn

Good answer, but how could you NOT mention Keys?

Freshmen receivers haven’t played under Heupel. Unless there’s an injury or he overtakes radarius jackson

Lol.

With no disrespect, I offer ...
1. Freshmen receivers HAVE played under Heupel.
2. Injuries DO happen, every year.
3. You have never seen Keys on this team. And neither have I.

Yeah I hope he plays, but I don’t see it as very likely right now. Probably play as much as radarius played in 25

I'm in agreement with you @Carl Pickens
