If you're a guy on a playoff team, with one of the biggest games in program history coming up, and you're in the rotation... why do you not see the year through? So weird.

Looking more, didn't realize his snaps had dropped so much. Played 150 snaps less this year than last, and most of those were earlier in the year.

I think we’re starting to understand why Staley decided not to enter the portal.

Yea MM took Nimrod's snaps in that Vandy game. Writing is on the wall. He wasn't going to start going into next year (barring injury). He trying to get/stay on the field so I get it. Plus, spots will fill up fast so these kids making the best decisions for their futures.

Leacock #2 behind Brazzell next year going into Spring now. He probably stays.

I don't think Leacock would be a #2 at any of the WR positions, just based on the fact he hasn't seen the field yet and his peers have. If Webb and Nimrod got run and decided to leave due to being passed up, I'm not sure why Leacock would also feel he's been recruited over as well?

Nothing against the kid, just stands to reason. If he stays I hope he balls out and proves me wrong.

If Leacock stays, I could see us going after an outside WR to backup MM. Wouldn't be a big name/elite guy tho. Just a solid WR imo.

I'll be fine coaching up the young boys tho and not getting a portal WR. If Leacock leaves, we definitely would need to get one then.

Webb and Nirmod been here longer and Leacock dealt with injuries his first year. Just think they were ahead of him in the pecking order. You may be right though but he would have a spring and fall with no older guys ahead of him to crack the rotation. Wouldn't have any excuses at that point.

I saw that draft grade and was like “ok I’m curious now”

Couldn’t find anything from this season. Wonder how bad that shoulder injury was

I watched a few games from his all 22 from 2022 and 2023. He flies around the field and is a phenomenal tackler. He’s a better Will Brooks, and I think Will Brooks is a great player.
