I knew something was wrong when all of seniors got picked up and was actually competing in Training Camps. i was shocked but now i know. Al is killing these dudes and you can see it on the field. its a shame.
We had talent. Some started right away, Spence, Benjamin, Vernon... others needed more time to get their issh together. Its a two way street.
Tracy Howard is another Luther Robinson, will excel at the next level as well

He's small and misses a lot of tackles on bigger college players. It will be even worst in the pros.
**** everyone and everything. Spent way too much time defending our players over the past couple years. I'm gonna go looking for those posts soon.
As I recall, Golden's first yr started with various suspensions for his best players including RayRay, Olivier Vernon, Jacory and others. I think we could have done something special his first yr.
As far as now, look at the defense, especially up front. Staff has struck out with difference-makers at DT. You say its their fault but try to outrecruit Bama and FSU with all that crap that was hanging over the program for three yrs. Also, we lost 3 difference-makers at LB (Figs, Gionni Paul, and Eddie Johnson). Two of these were excelling at the position while here and would have dramatically changed the production of our defense, but they ***ced up their end of the deal.
As for the offense, 2 words, true…freshman. That injury to Ryan really hurt us. We have a veteran like RW and we win more than 3.Prob win at Louisville.

Pretty soon, we will have a Pro-Bowl team in the NFL who "underachieved" at the U

I remember when this staff tried to force him to move to oline....
It will not be the least bit surprising to see more Robinson type stories as long as this staff is here keeping kids with tons of potential from putting together a college tape that will give the scouts something to look at.
"Across the locker room, center Corey Linsley is told Robinson only started a couple games in college. At first, he's confused.
"What do you mean he started one or two games?" Linsley said.
That's it, he's told. Then, quizzical turns to bewildered.
"That's amazing," he said. "He was a good player from Day 1. You could tell. I would have never guessed that. Somebody screwed up."
lmaooo
They had this dude playing patty cake
