Wrestled in high school and was a Catcher at MTSU. Loved baseball but my heart has always been geared towards football... glad I got the degree though since I ended up going Army. Makes PT wayyy more enjoyable instead of just endlessly pounding pavement.

Go warrant and then PT will be a total non-issue.

🤔When were you a catcher at MTSU out of curiousity?

Pass rush can’t get to the QB in time if a receiver is literally wide open within a second of the snap.

Secondary needs work. We have guys that can get to the QB on this team. Still could use Verse but we need as many transfer DBs as we can get

Evaluating the season overall, we had no pass rush, and the secondary looks bad when you can’t get to the QB. We had plays tonight, too, where a better pass rush helps. Purdue wasn’t throw a quick dink and dunk game.

Hopefully, the ones we have can develop. Burrell has the tools. But he interferes even when he has good coverage. It’s frustrating, but it’s coachable. Hadden, Turnage, and Rucker should all be better next year. Slaughter too. Adding Des Williams will also help. At Safety, I think McDonald and Charles both have high upsides, but we still need to add a transfer Safety.

The QB had time all night. Our pass rush is nearly as bad as our secondary

I somewhat disagree. It appeared to me that our pass rush was much better in the first quarter. Now, was that a product of them figuring out what we were doing or our guys getting gassed? Not sure on that.

I think we need 3 linebackers, 2 corners, 2 safeties, 2 defensive tackles, and two defensive ends.

I get what you're saying. But we honestly just need a couple of guys that can consistently rush the passer. And just be slightly above average in the secondary. Need to build this defense like the Colts did when Manning was there. They're main objective was to build a lead by scoring points then pin the ears back and get sacks and force turnovers. That's how this defense will have to be geared moving forward. They don't have to be world beaters, just stay around 400 yards of defense or below. This 600+ yards a game is going to keep us at 7-5 as long as Huepel is the coach. Just that simple.

I would prefer a defense like Peyton’s last year in Denver, personally…

My portal wish list is:

OT Gerald Mincey (enrolled)
WR Taj Harris
DE Jared Verse
LB Brandon Jennings
S Brandon Joseph

I think we have room for 5.

I think Taj Harris had to back off his Kentucky commitment due to academics. Not sure if true but that’s what they alluded to. Sign me up for the others though.

We have to scheme a rush because we have few guys who can create when 1 on 1. That’s a real problem
