IS BEASLEY HURT

[Misplaced Vol]

He had no tackles in the Akron game and only four tackles in the Florida game.He played lights out the first two games,with 22 total tackles.

Beasley is average and healthy other LBs are better. Beasley gets juked a lot and is often out of position

A lot did. PFF would have you thinking we lost by 20. Not sold on the whole PFF thing.

He had 14 tackles 6 solos against your Kentucky team last year.

I have been down on Beasley more than anyone on this board. But an honest opinion on Beasley after the season started is he is the most improved player on the team. Your opinion on him has to be based off of last season because it's totally wrong based on this years games.

 

[KingtUT]

Mitchell has played the last two games and im not sure hes made a tackle yet. He is never around the ball. At least Beasley stays in the picture.

Solon Page was playing quite a bit in the fourth and was out of position on a lot of plays, at least from my view point.

he actually reads his keys well most plays he's in. But athletically fails to put himself in position.
Sometimes he's just not big or fast enough to make a play basically...

Like to see more Elijah Herring..

Like to see more Elijah Herring..

ABSOLUTELY............................NOT PLAYING HIM IS A TOTAL WASTE OF TALENT. EVEN THOUGH HE IS A FRESHMAN HE WAS RECRUITED DUE TO BEING AN, "EDGE RUSHER." DOESN'T HELP MUCH RIDING THE PINE !

When the coaches trust Herring he will play. He has more natural talent than the others mentioned. Just needs more time in the program. I do think he’s a gamer tho

 

[orangemadam]

Our entire LB class is avg at best.

Banks should have been called with roughing the passer that would have been brutal if called.

Experience is great but if you physically can't make a play, what good is it? Gimme a more talented player everytime. Mistakes and experience will come, but physically, they at least have a chance to make a play. Herring needs more time IMO.

 

[VolSummitt44]

Beasley had his worst game but Banks just keeps piling up bad games. They bite so hard on play fakes and believe in a zone all they have to do is drop back and stand there. Banks gets a pass from most because he has made a few big plays but he just isn't a good linebacker. I would play Herring and let him get the experience he needs. I don't think the results would be much different than what we are getting. Might be better.

Out of curiosity, did AR get by with a handful of grounding calls. TV is much better at viewing that sort of thing. He appeared on 4 or 5 occasions to sling the ball when pressured with no receiver in the nearest zip code, and still inside the tackle box. Also a handful of guys hit out of bounds with no flags. Refs did tend to let them play. I thought both teams played fairly clean, minimal cheap shots.

 

[NighthawkVol]

The fact that Page and Herring got in and not Beasley tells me there's something else going on there.

Banks is constantly out of position, can't cover in space.. Should be our short yardage runningback.

My thoughts as well. I think Beasley might be banged up a bit. Should have time to heal up so We’ll find out in two weeks.

Pretty sure Beasley played..

IMO the PFF grades were extremely accurate this week. I think their grading system penalizes our OL because of how we coach our guys, but otherwise I thought PFF did a good job.
