Really wish Banks could find a place and stick. Would be a great week to get plenty of reps at LB if that's where he ends up.

Wish this week could be more about the future than this game.

I've seen double posts, but I don't think I've ever seen them 9 hours apart.

You do know we have an off-season, right? He can develop AND be productive at another position NOW.

I love Banks attitude and energy but he is a risk with his fumble problems. We kill ourselves with silly penalties we can't afford to lose fumbles on top of that if we are going to have a chance to get 6 wins.

It's Charlotte. IDT Pruitt is worried that a Banks fumble will cost us the game. Rest Chandler & Jordan, then bring them back for the SEC games.

That isn't ideal and you know it. Besides many here just a week ago were expecting Banks to be a factor after one week at LB. That wasn't realistic but helping sometime this season might be if he could get some consistent Reps there. This week is the perfect time for that.

Calm down. He is a freshman.

Honestly, we could probably lean on Fils Aime and London at RB this game, just rest Chandler and Jordan, and keep the early move of Banks to LB going for continuity.

So who do we play at RB then since the rest of them are banged up? Its also a good week to rest injured players. We should just pull a Make-A-Wish kid out of the stands to play RB so Banks can get in 15 plays at LB imo.

Cfa and London

Yep

Im still salty that CFA was ever moved in the first place tbh

Maybe some double duty. Definitely think need to rest Chandler.

I am starting to wonder if there is a specific purpose that we started to get Banks some reps at LB. I think the coaches are looking ahead to the Kentucky game and wondering how will they contain the QB when he scrambles. I’m wondering if they are going to use banks in obvious passing situations as a spy for the QB.

Me too

 

[bignewt]

Man I hope Notre Dame makes the playoffs so they can just get brutalized. Ridiculous that they are even considered.

 

[RollerVol]

sure hope we can rest a lot of players...be nice to play everybody who hasn't played yet...every QB get some minutes too...may not get another chance for them to play this season...

GO VOLS!

This is a year the playoff is just plain dumb.

It's clear what two teams need to play for it all

I don't think there will be any obvious passing situations in that game when you consider how we got ran on last week and I've seen Kentucky win a game with the QB attempting 9 passes this year lol

Well when you are trying to fix a team that has made so many silly mistakes, not sure you want to roll out a guy that is fumble prone. I don't think we have the luxury as a team to be so confident that we can afford fumbles. Listen if he plays I hope the best for the kid and hope he gets it fixed but I will be holding my breath every time he gets the ball. Would love to see what he can do at LB. He has the high energy and the want to to hit somebody, to take their heads off.

Every now and then this pops up. Do you really form your rationale based on what’s posted HERE? I know if we’re counting on him this season as a linebacker, then it’s not “ideal”! There’s four games left, dude. Three against SEC teams. He’ll be a linebacker next year, what he would learn against Charlotte wasnt going to have him SEC ready.

Kansas State and UCLA? No...that was 98.

Chandler hyperextended his knee on a play. Suprised he even came back in game tonplay when you see what happened. So I'd say not wanting him playing much if at all vs Charlotte is thinking of future as in thinking about beating Ky, Mizzu and Vandy because you need Chandler in those games more than Charlotte.

We also don't know where Banks future is. He can be big time at either spot imo

 

[VOLED]

You ASSUME that he would be in the wrong place.

WE KNOW that 34 and 23 can do nothing even when they are in the right place.....I like my chances with the new guy....

we need playmakers at LB, and really none are showing this ability. I would give Banks and JJ a chance and see what happens. I see this as our only chance against the run game from KY. Also, would be nice to get a little more run support from our safeties which we lacked against SC.

 

[VFL23]

I'm just ready to see Banks hit somebody. That dude is so intense and looks for contact.

 

[JCP201]

We only play 5 of the top 13 teams in the country and Auburn was ranked high at the beginning of the year.
