Avery Huff key...

[Billy D Williams]

Following last season LB was a position of concern. We've heard good news re Huff, exception weight gain, regarding his play this spring. From HS we know he's a gifted, tall and fast LB. Seems like his issues are between the ears. Provided he can learn the defense, become more intuitive and not be fooled by window dressing he could be the key cog to adding depth and more speed to a questionable unit. I thought Brooks and Cave would give us speed and athleticism, but neither has stepped up, so we gotta hope Huff finally becomes the player we thought we were getting.
Side Note: If Keontra, Chase and Thomas Davis, (James Wms. to a degree) can adjust quickly this will be a fast and athletic position for us.

Huff has been the biggest disappointment from that class. I was really high on him, I thought he had all american potential.

Manny said he’s been one of the bigger surprises at LB this spring but that they were expecting it once he was able to get alot of reps in a full spring

@reformedsteven hates Huff

Expect big season from Huff. Locking down the weak side and blowing up plays.

Part of the issue imo, is also who's in charge of developing of our young LB's. It's been ****-poor in terms of teachers/coaching for some time now. We all know this is also key regardless of how "talented" the LB is, that's coming in.

Think he's a great natural athlete, not sure he has much else going for him. Honestly will be surprised if he ever makes an impact

Is Thomas Davis going to play LB?

Huffs biggest problem was 4 spring practices last year. I don’t think people realize what a big loss those were and what those practices mean for a guy like Huff.

also, I think he has better coaching now than he did last year. I know it’s fun to hate on Patke and say he brings nothing but even our insiders will tell you he is respected amongst the team. He just can’t recruit worth a fu$k

Also no spring the year before and did he even have a fall? I know he was superrrr late getting in and was an academic redshirt.

Some guys take longer than others to develop. Are you saying every college star dominated during their freshman/sophomore years?






spoiler: no.
