3 Players With a Golden Opportunity

I think the plan will be, if we make the switch inside, to go Samson-McCoy-RR-Cantwell-Hawks. I don’t see us substituting out two inexperienced sophomores for two true freshmen.

I don’t see how Wiley doesn’t get snaps. At the Wake game there were only 6 LB’S that traveled. Smith, Toure, Pruitt, Marcelin, Wiley and a walk on. Obviously Wiley is next man up.

You’re missing Bonner who played against Wake, and Wiley didn’t.
 
we NEED somone to step up at LG or else we wont get where we want to be this year. that simple

We will miss Marty Brown. He's a glue guy. Hate it for both these kids but we have enough depth in the WR room to navigate the loss of Moore.

Time for the young backs to grow up tho. Looking at you Lyle. I'm talking to you Pringle who ran kinda soft the other night. Mallory might take their lunch if they aren't careful.

Mallory: 7 rushes for 23 yards (3.28 ypc)

Pringle: 4 rushes for 12 yards (3 ypc) and one 1 reception for 10 yards. Thus, Pringle averaged more yards per TOUCHES than Mallory.

RB who saved our season last year as a true freshman still gets disrespected all the time on here.

Hawks is not ready for prime time. Cantwell plays tackle before Hawks.

And he left yards out there with a couple soft runs. Good player but when talking about replacing Brow , we will need more from him. That aint disrespect, it's just a hard truth.

I can only go off our coaching staff’s actions. The 3 reserve linemen who have played in every game are Woodrow, Cantwell, and Hawks. Woodrow is obviously our backup center. We aren’t going to pull RR. Hawks might not be ready for primetime which is why i said if we bench the two inside guys. Before benching two guys, we will likely bench neither of them.

McCoy played LG last year, so that’d be the natural spot for him to play at if Max takes a backseat. When we put Cantwell in against Stanford, it was at RG. Same thing for FAMU. It was Cantwell at RG and Hawks at RT. I don’t expect that to be the next step we take, tho.

Against Stanford, we saw Samson-Max-RR-Cantwell-McCoy in the 2nd half. RG is going to be his freshman season position, and they want him to master it before kicking him outside to tackle.

The most likely escalation is to move to 6 man starting platoon; with Max and SJ (who both will get snaps every game, even if they are reduced) substituting for each other at LG just like we did in the 3rd quarter of the Stanford game.

Lmfao, he already replaced brown last year bud, even had games where he had more carries than Fletcher.

If anything, Pringle’s problem against Wake was his lack of patience and trying too hard to force himself thru gaps that were not there. Still, OLine did him no favors.


All Mallory’s running ‘hard,’ as you describe it, was good for an extra 0.28 yards per carry despite having nearly double the rushing attempts.
