'25 NC DL Isaiah Campbell (Tennessee)

[Jackcrevol]

We’ve also got Ayer’s in the stables and recruits love him as well. If chop leaves, next man up

no not next man up.

all of them.

we made that mistake once and it took 2 decades to get him back.

 

[JT3]

Lots of work put in with this kid. Between Utley/House/Dye and now Campbell, another strong trench class. Chop deserves a lot of credit

Hopefully we land Campbell. Will need all the DT prospects to play next year.

We have good depth at DT

We have good depth at DT

Outside of Hobbs and Moi, everyone else is a complete unknown and only true DT is probably Wallace. Portal is highly likely.

West will likely also play DT next year. And Eason could come back, but not likely. Wallace and Robinson are guys they’re high on. I do agree that DT is likely a position they grab from the portal, though. Wouldn’t expect all the freshmen to play, but one or two could be depth pieces.

If only Bear wasn’t a complete idiot

what about jenkins?

 

[NighthawkVol]

what about jenkins?

Seems likely to stay at SDE.

What?

 

[TrippieRedd]

What?

You: “I agree that we will grab a DT from the portal”

TrippieRedd: If only Bear Alexander wasn’t a complete idiot.

Meaning: If he wasn’t an idiot, I’d say he would be a top choice.

You just said “Bear.” The “Alexander” part would have helped. We don’t live inside your brain.

Figured most would put it together since there’s only one Bear that’s a DT, but that’s a fair point.

When I see Bear, I immediately think Bryant. So I thought, “what did Bear Bryant do that caused a problem for UT now?!”

I think I’d NIL Eason’s return.

 

[Go Fight Win]

I think I’d NIL Eason’s return.

yep. much more obvious to me than portal. guaranteed "the guy" status and a much better shot of a high draft grade if he is such. pay him rookie salary money to keep him another year and it's win-win

 

[NighthawkVol]

I think I’d NIL Eason’s return.

If he's willing, absolutely. But if he's projected decently high, I'd think a guy who's played 5 years already might want to get the NFL clock started.

Man, I'd love to see him return.

Maybe you mean undrafted rookie salary which can vary bc I see no way Eason gets $795k for 1 year here

 

[Go Fight Win]

yes i think we can cough up $12,500/week for that level of production. roughly 16-20 weeks in a season, $200,000-260,000 or so for a super senior sec DT with proven status on the leagues best defense then he gets drafted and gets his pay bump

We are loading up on the edges... Just need a big time DT

I like West for the rabbit package but it may be too much for him to play DT every down. Dom Bailey has another year as well so we will be great at the SDE spot next year. Same for EDGE assuming Josephs back. If we can get 2 impact DT transfers next year our Dline can still be elite for 2025.

Plus, we may be elite (finally) in the secondary next year with Boo, McCoy, Harrison and Gibson all back. Just gotta sure up the safety spots but we could move Thomas back to safety.

 

[Vawlk Tuah]

Yeah I don't know why I thought he was labeled as a strong side edge guy. Probably his weight or Ivins saying projectable 285.. that's small a heck for a DT and more a strong side edge. That's probably where my confusion set in

Kid isn't a LEO. He is already 275 pounds with frame to add more and remain explosive
