Fall practise #3

Stay away from the five receiver route combo and maybe even some max protect. Give the kid some help with backs and tes. Don’t throw the kid to the wolves and leave him on an island all game long.

Exactly. Different matchups present different strategies. We have top tier talent at TE but we'll have to limit their play in order to help out Nelson. Same with our RBs and luckily we have Realus. Who knows, maybe he can take him on all by himself.

And Nelson would be lined up against a redshirt senior who is currently a 1st/2nd round NFL Draft pick in 2020, Zuniga.

Man, I really do not like the thought of starting a true freshman in his first college game against someone like that.

back and TE will have to help...
 
I swear we have the most bipolar posters on this site.

QB throws a nice completion in practice and they start asking, "We back?", and booking tickets to Charlotte.

Same QB is a little off next practice and they're setting their hair on fire and wanting to fly banners because we're going 4-8 if we're lucky.

Kelly "Slim" Jennings is an excellent comparison, same one I would make.

To be fair, the kid was around 145 a year ago. Even then I agreed with you and HTown that Couch would end up seeing the field because I figured S&C would add another 10+ pounds and he is one of the best cover corners I've seen. When everyone was talking CB depth chart, I thought Couch would be our #4 after Bandy, Ivey and Blades, ahead of Bethel and CW.

Now that he's 165-170, his weight is a non-factor. I feel very good about that prediction. He'll get a lot of reps in.

If Zion is the best LT on the roster he should start at LT. All the people scared of starting a freshman, would you prefer starting upper classmen who can't play like we did last year with Jones and Mahoney? Best guy plays. Experience means nothing if you suck.

Did FLowers start as a freshman?

Agee on the freshman thing but I’ll say this, Zuniga is good but idk about 1st or 2nd round good. If he was that good he would have went to the draft this year seeing as he had already been In college four years. Redshirt seniors usually only come back because there draft grade wasn’t that good so there giving it one more try but you usually are who you are after four years. And Zion is going up against a much better d end in Garvin or hill everyday in practice. If he can hold his own against those two then I think will be ok against the gaytor.
