Corey Flagg vs Clemson (video)

To be honest he looks much faster than what people were dogging him for. Now with that being said he did play alright. Biggest thing with being a freshman is all selling out on the run. Will get smashed on PA/screen plays until he's gets a better feel. But refreshing to see the instinct is there. Going to be fun to monitor him through the year when he starts getting more burn. I'm excited about the young man, that counter play where he snuffed it out in blink was nice. Can't wait to see more Austin-Cave as well. Give me more of Brooks, Huff, Flagg, TAC

dude, he's a Gionni Paul clone.

Short, stubby, rough-neck maafka that loves to hit.

You knew he was some cerebral prodigy because you don't make it to Miami looking like a JV defensive tackle.

Great post...

Nothing on that film made you saw wow, but I guess for being a true freshman at least he wasn’t running around lost.

The play where he set the edge and forced Lawrence inside to Phillips was good.

Yeah that was the one that stood out for me. Yeah it's hard to gauge without havint a spring or really a summer it's impressive that he's knows what to do All ready

Man he looks good.
Couple things, just taking on a blocker head on, comes up sometimes, but that guy has great lateral movement and attacks downhill.
I don't know if that was a highlight film, but I've seen enough of McCloud to know that Flagg is worth getting more snaps.

 

[D-anon]

I'm encourages by that video. Hard to pay attention during the game. Should have known that he would be good, once I seen the slander from Dwins about him

 

[SayWhat]

Going to be a player here in time. He diagnoses plays better than any LB'er we have.

 

[Rellyrell]

Oh, OK....he was #11. He played solid; looked better than most. Maybe b/c he actually played that position in HS. But he looked solid by all accounts.

because of what our d line is asked to do, we need someone stout in the middle. i really liked what i saw from brooks as wlb, and think a flagg-brooks combo has plenty of outside speed when paired with frierson/smith at striker.

 

[canes1996]

Brooks flashed more to me, but I’ve seen enough of some of the more experienced LBers. Let the young bucks continue to get meaningful snaps.

 

[BrandCanes]

good - play him

 

[561Cane]

he played ok. Too small which at times works to his favor and other times overpowered. He is quick and appears to read plays pretty good for a young pup. Has upside with work, dedication and commitment.

Brooks needs to start. Period. Sprinkle in Cave, Huff and Flagg. These four should be enough. Jennings and McCloud should be relegated to ST's.

 

[citizenkane]

its such a huge benefit to have linebackers that can diagnose a play and react rapidly

Nothing said wow. He makes plays 6 yards down the field. Cool story OP. He's not a bum, but I need more speed.

 

[Gables Cane]

He diagnoses plays faster than other linebackers but he lacks lateral quickness and is on the small side for an ILB. He will get stronger but he can he improve his quickness sideline-to-sideline.

 

[Saviorcane]

Better than Jennings

 

[nycane]

He needs to get faster somehow but he’s clearly smart.
We need a youth movement. Couch, huff, brooks, Redding, Smith, etc. upperclassmen aren’t getting us to the next level.

 

[Gables Canes]

Flagg, TAC, Huff, and Brooks need to see more reps. Fewer for Jennings and McCloud, please
