2022 LB Wesley Bissainthe

[BooBoo]

Boom!

 

[KANE]

Yessir!

 

[orange&green84]

FYI, Gaby just mentioned that they are trying to get Wesley enrolled early. Will know if it’s a go soon.

Absolutely needed. Wesley, at minimum, is in the 2-deep starting this year.

 

[Rellyrell]

He just confirmed he’s enrolling early

He needs it. He needs that S&C off season regimen. Glad to hear this!

 

[Hoyacane1620]

yep they got him in. He starts Monday

 

[JHallCanes]

We needed him to enroll last September

But this is great news

Get him to the Stache

Great news

 

[PBJFanatic]

Awesome! Go Canes!

Unless we find a portal LB, we could see our first starting Freshman LB since 2016.

Yeah it will be interesting to see who the new DC is. Manny not putting much emphasis (that’s generous) on Lb recruiting for his defense puts us in a weird spot

I think we gotta hit the portal

I’d take my chances with him and #41 right neow.

 

[Hoyacane1620]

Look who else is on campus...

 

[Josh]

Him and Chase need to be our starters at LB unless we get portal help. Keontra is good too just not an everydown LBer

Look here, I’m a huge fan of Wes, and I can’t wait til he hits the field, but y’all do know that he doesn’t have to start right away, right???? What are y’all saying.

1. You don’t know what sort of defense scheme Miami will run. This isn’t Manny’s team.

2. As I mentioned, THIS IS MANNY’S TEAM ANYMORE. So we could easily see a lot of guys transitioned to better fit position. I.e Thomas Davis moving to LB (where he should be), Chase Smith moving to LB. Gilbert Frieerson, Keontra Smith, etc… all moving to LB. Maybe even move Chantz Williams to OLB in a 3-4 scheme.

3. We still have good serviceable LBs on the team that I’d take my chances on playing before Wes. Sam Brooks, Waymom Steed, Chase Smith, Tirek Austin-Cave.

Overall, you all shouldn’t just expect a kid like Wes to come in and start day 1. That’s dumb. Miami has talent at LB. Just doesn’t have depth.

Give me Chase Smith, Keontra Smith, Tirek Austin-Cave, Wesley Bissainthe & a Portal backer & let’s roll!

If we’re sticking with the 4-2-5, we need 6 for the 2-deep, if it’s a 3-4 we’ll need 8...

But the main 5 should be them & let one among Troutman, Flagg, Brooks, Huff & Tyler Johnson decide how bad they want it to be the 6th man.

Really like Cave, travesty he didn’t see more time this year.

Look who else is on campus...

Thought he was partaking in the Polynesian Bowl with Skinner and Moss?

 

[BrandCanes]

Huge… hit weights and get learned up

Who can play mike in that list? Not a traditional mike lb in the guys who can play

 

[nvlahos]

That’s huge

Would love to see him start or get PT right away

Depends on the Defense...

If it’s a 4-2-5 or 3-3-5, TAC or Ke Smith.

If it’s a 3-4, TAC & Chase.

But most likely, a true Mike backer is what we’ll add from the Portal.
