Can we talk about how Navaughn Donaldson has been a massive bust?

[S.CarolinaCane]

Weirdo.

Lol, I spelled it wrong

The only bust is Mark Richts O.

Bar Milo has been a massive bust.

Donaldson has been just ok.

A 4/5 star Offensive Lineman should be athletic enough to play Guard or Tackle in college IMO.
Obviously he can be better at one than the other, but a "stud" Guard doesn't become a turnstile just cause he's playing Right Tackle.

If so can you please explain his regression at both positions?

 

[DMoney]

Donaldson is a huge guy that can run. Gap scheme is perfect for him. I thought he would be more flexible and athletic in pass protection.

In the long run, I think he'll be fine. He's smart and he cares about getting better.

Coaching?

Also, I happen to think our O-linemen are too fat. They don't even look like elite level O-linemen.

 

[Coach Macho]

Oh, come on. He’s played out of position most of his Miami career because UM can’t seem to recruit and develop OTs

Excuses.
Didn't stop Feliciano from being a good RT.

Good linemen can play any spot on the line. (minus Center maybe)

Got a lot of negs in my notifications from my posts in this thread.

What has Donaldson done that has made him not trash during the BYE that I am unaware of?

He is a huge guy that can run? Dude can barely move and gets put on roller skates in our zone scheme. He needs to lose 30lbs

 

[Coach Macho]

If he was an "elite" Guard then he'd be a good/serviceable RT.

 

[Billy D Williams]

OC and OL coach are awful, but it's not like he has been a beast at guard blowing guys off the line. Nobody on our line is a people mover. I would love to see what these kids could do with a real OC that could throw defenses off.

Thanks coach!

Donaldson shouldn’t be in the same sentence as elite.

Watch film any time he is asked to pull. That’s a strength of his game. His problem is more flexibility and lateral quicks.

Who taught Feliciano at Miami? Who was his coach?

 

[Redstate12]

Another five star who turns out to be nothing more than an above average starter.

No

He was coached into being a good OL long before he got to Miami.

 

[TheUx5]

He's a sophomore out of position. Smh
