My point is that the DL can make your linebackers look very good. I’m not saying we shouldn’t prioritize getting talented linebackers. I just think trenches is the most important position to recruit every year.

Yes you mentioned the stats for his senior year (he only had 7 tackles as a freshman) yet you threw in the bowl for Flagg who is a true freshman.

Yes Ben Boulware who ran 4.9 at the pro day. Also skalsi (spelling?) wasnt exactly heavily recruited and he did well because of the dline. Our current linebackers are faster and more athletic than both of them

I agree with you 100%. The reason I said DT is more important because back to my original point - Clemson had a slow, un-athletic walk on linebacker and still won championship. They actually used multiple walk-ons at that position for multiple season. Yet they're winning and dominating on...

I was referring to the unc game so Taylor wasn't on the team and Roberts didn't play. My point was that the DT talent and depth was lacking which causes UNC to run all over us. I do agree that linebackers need an upgrade but DT is more important

Like I said, Clemson won with a walk on linebacker because their dline was stacked. If I recall correctly, Nesta is our only 4 star dt on the team and he's not much of a run stopper.

It's because we need more talent and depth at the DT position. One DE isn't going to solve everything.

You win championships by having stacked/talented trenches. Clemson won a ship with a walk on as their starting linebacker.
