Bishop isn’t going anywhere lol he and Lewis will be the main two. They won’t go big in portal at RB imo. He will be on scholarship next year and a key piece,

Sad day. Oh well.

Sad day. Oh well.

what? Are you high?

 

[SPEDVoL14]

Bishop is going to be a good player not sure why all the hate

 

[IUGradVol]

Perry change his mind?

Was wondering that myself

 

[Jackcrevol]

Can we please concentrate on adding to the ****ing roster now?

 

[TrippieRedd]

what? Are you high?

Nope. You know I’m not a fan of either.

Easy position to upgrade. 2-3 in the portal that are better. I’ve already explained why with their SEC stats. You can go through the post history and read.

It is what it is.

Glad we’re gonna keep Nico though, it looks like.

I don’t think numbers matter until fall. It will work itself out. Don’t turn away good players.

oh we still need to add one.

2 WR

1 OL

1 Safety

1 DL

Then its time to beat Syracuse.

Sad day. Oh well.

Have to disagree with you on this. We had a redshirt freshman and true freshman show they easily belong in the SEC. Then add morris who drew praise already from what VQ saw. Rb room is young but really talented

 

[Orangeblood75]

Not exactly, same as all the others. Could see increased playing time if he sticks around, we recruited him for a reason. Question is how much does he expect ? Only a few hours left

Both can improve as they were both freshman. Honestly rather have them step up and give Duane morris carries rather than over pay for a portal rb

I like the talent of Morris and Baker. I’ve explained why I don’t like either, SEC ypc as freshman compared to past backs we’ve had, but I’m not the coach.

If they think they are the best, then that’s all that matters, my opinion doesn’t matter luckily

Inb4 “thank god you aren’t the coach” lol

If we are going to save on any position, RB should be near the top of that list. And if anyone is going to be had at a lower asking price, it’s probably the local former walk on

 

[Grey_pilgrim]

If Nico leaves a lot of guys will leave you can bet your ass on that

Ahh so we’re hypothetically “gutted”. I love being hypothetically gutted.

Bishop imo will be still around 800-100 yards next. Bell cow type rn. He was having a solid season before the ankle injury. Lewis should glimpses and got better as the season went on. Has to run lower tho and not as tall.

Again, that’s fine.

If the coaches think they are fine at the position. That’s all that matters.

And if that happens I’ll have a big smile on my face and everyone can bump my post and laugh at me.

I don't get how all the players are so down on what's going on here after this year. Didn't we exceed our expectations. It didn't look like we expected but it's all doom and gloom and I don't understand it. It's hard telling 20 years the grass isnt greener, especially when you ended up 7th out of 134 after the regular season

I think we should upgrade at RB as well, but that’s been the position we’ve been able to move on from the easiest each year so far. I’m with you that I think Bishop should only be a complimentary piece, but I do think Lewis has the traits and athleticism to be a premier player. Definitely need him to grow quite a bit before next year though.

If we’re going to spend - I think we absolutely need to sure up the O Line with an experienced starter and a dynamite playmaker at WR for Nico. Those have to be the priorities

Nico isn’t leaving. Stop sipping the kool aide of doom and “insiders”, and instead look at reality.

Where are you getting the notion that all the players are down on next year’s team? Seems made up

Yeah this is totally fair.

Good post.
