I still think we need another JuCo DT. We need two DTs from this class to contribute next year. And, it's tough to put that on a true frosh.
Cory Johnson please.

If Valentine gets in he will contribute as a True FR. I think thye are looking for another Juco and another high school DT tho. I mean i think we need that. Porter and Robinson are done after this year.

That scares the **** out of me. Year 3 is when DTs should be counted on. Maybe the end of Year 2 they can be solid.

"Conversate?" And people wonder why athletes often have a hard time academically qualifying for college, where conversing is a big part of the learning experience. Personally, I don't care if our DT's are polysyllabic or just grunt. I want them big, strong and murderous, but it would be nice if they can live up to the whole title of student/athlete.

What's with this real world ****? This is CiS bruh. We got no time for proper development.

I think some of you are confused by numbers at the DT position. In our current scheme (4-3) we have 2 DTs on the field at a time, we don't need to have an ACTIVE 5 deep at the position (10 total DTs), we should be redshirting a bunch. What we need is quality backups and to develop the kids...so as it stands

Moore (Jr)

Stuckey (JUCO)
Valentine (Fr)
Jenkins (Fr)
Then you have kids that could play DT
Grimble (SR)
Hamilton (SR)
Kamala (JUCO)
As it stands we have 6 Scholarship DTs and 3 More who could play DT. Of the 6, 2 of them should not be playing their freshman year. I think the safe bet would be to take 1-2 more JUCO, not because Moore/King or won't pan out but because if Pierre leaves early we are seriously lacking in elder statesmen.
So my guess is if we only count the 6 Scholarship DTs as the only DTs (i.e. Grimble, Hamilton and Kamala are DEs) then bring in 2-3 total DTs but at the same time I would cut the weakest link.
9 True DTs, varying in age group spread out. 3 of them can redshirt.

Nice post. In other words, either Stuckey turns into a future NFLer immediately, King or Moore turn into Santonio Thomas-types, or we'll rely on a true freshman DT who is known for his raw abilities. All of this while potentially having the most dynamic offensive player in the NCAA as a Junior, a veteran group of WRs, a potential Top 10 pick at LT + 3 other 3-4 year starters, an NFL defensive backfield, a few NFL contributors at DE and a Butkus Award candidate at LB.
Yeah, so, all resources should be thrown at another JuCo DT who can save all of that from going to waste. Please.

Why the sarcasm? Who is saying throw "all the resources" at another JUCO?
My post is about having the ability to redshirt kids and not throw them on the field.
