A few tidbits

I agree on Shaq that he was our defensive MVP and covered up so much. But he couldn't cover for Baker. Remember that we lost to FIU and La Tech with Shaq on the team in 2019. And while Enos was primarily responsible for the failed season, Baker deserved equal blame for how miserably he managed the defense that year, too ... with Shaq.

That Vatech game of 2019, that first half specifically, was when I knew he was basura. He was plum awful

You did not watch the La tech game. Shaq was thr only reason it was 7-0 in the 4th quarter. I remember clearly the camera showing him on the sidelines keeping the whole thing from spiraling into someone way worse. The o may have given up but Shaq was not going out like that on his side of the ball.

Or Fiu, on the first td we gave up you can see Shaq sprinting past Romeo Finley trying to run down the wide out. I still cannot believe how some people here can't see the forest because of the trees.

There was five scouts at our first practice , which is crazy. That’s the most we’ve had around here in awhile. You know why ? Because there’s a bunch of talent, sorry to break some mopes hearts. There could be 10-14 kids drafted in this draft , most being in the middle rounds but still. There’s plenty of NFL talent on this roster. I could see a few going in the first 2-3 rounds.

In spring I said Mccloud was flashing being at his natural spot of de, i wouldn’t be shocked if he started beside Johnson or at the very least getting a bunch of pt. He was always a de , even in hs. I’ve posted multiple times thats where he should be . From his size , frame and speed. He lacked fluidity wnd acceleration to be a Lb.

Speaking of mccloud he’ll be part of a biography on three current players. Zion is another and maybe LT is the third but i can’t remember lol.

Lastly keep an eye on Elijah Robert’s , he’s a guy to watch making a jump. He’s expected to get a lot of pt.

Anything on the LB’s?
 
No one said there was no talent. The team needs to have mental fortitude to avoid losing to teams woth less talent and bounce back from losses and (gasp) bye weeks.

I hated to post that but he is playing well there , I’m sorry to hurt some people. Luckily him playing his natural spot made the light go off right before his 30th birthday.

I hate to break it to people but we are going to need him to be reasonably competent because it’s not easy to lose two guys to the nfl at one position.

Shaq may not be Ray Lewis or Dan Morgan, but he was solid and sound. I wish he had an extra half step to his speed, but regardless it looks like he'll be putting together a real career at the next level in Buffalo. He's light years better than what we had last season
 
The problem is that by your standards/reporting we should have 10-14 players drafted this year so...

If 10-14 of our upper classmen are draftable, and presumably alot of underclassmen will be draftable...

1. We should be unstoppable as a college team.

2. All of the these draftable kids should be starting.

3. These kids should be getting better each year.

These 3 things aren't happening for some reason in the program. I agree the talent is there but there's a coaching issue.
