Moten

[astabooty]

Best DT in 20 years IMO. Made play after play on one ankle. Incredible season

McIntosh, Norton and that Gator transfer all had great years, not that I've compared their stats to Moten's.

He'd be stupid to come back.

 

[Hstokes1447]

He will be back

Minors and Norton weren’t in the same stratosphere. Willis was dominant . But moten performed well vs elite competition consistently. I’m taking moten season over Willis

Loved Morten’s film coming out of HS but sometimes that just doesn’t always end up translating to the next level. His most certainly did. Great job to both him and the staff for busting their butts to get him to play to his potential.

They didn't play with his power. RJ and Willis were products of Mannys scheme and that's why they never did anything at the next level. Both very good college players.
If Moten comes back, he's going day 2 at the worst.

I think fletch should declare. I think moten could improve his stock

 

[The U is back to work]

Tremendous player. Would be a top 3 DT in CFB next year but I think he’s gone.

you know you are winning the line when IU has to play with 6 OL in the fourth to get 3 yards a carry.

 

[BoxingRobes]

He became a real war daddy in the playoffs.

With one arm and on one leg he took an Ohio State offensive linemen and drove him into the dirt. Thats an exemplar play by him that I'll never forget and would recommend any NFL scout look at that.

He had a play in this Indiana game where he put Coogler into the dirt and walked over him like he was nothing.

If he comes back? Oh man. You've got an All American candidate at NT. He's really developed into something special.

 

[CityboyCanes4life82]

He'd be stupid to come back.

Not really, because with NIL leave early it’s becoming less and less each year. Honestly, you should only enter the drive if you have a first round pick. It is becoming similar to the NBA draft if you’re not a first rounder what’s the point? You can make a better earning than in college.

 

[Meast21]

Have to pay him whatever it takes to come back. Defense loses way too much talent next year that there's no way we dont take a meaningful step back. Get it done.

 

[JayCane20]

We have no backfill for what he does while also losing Blay. Justin Scott also has a few programs trying to get him to bite and jump in. Doubt he does

Losing Moten would likely be a deadly blow to our 2026 defense.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Beast, pay him.

 

[Negro-Wan Kanobi]

The rumblings are he is returning.

RUN IT BACK

 

[Hurry-Cane]

Hey, you guys remember when all the CIS expert talent scouts said Moten was a jag out of high school and his first couple years or so? I do lmao.

Perfect example as to why you give DTs time to develop.

 

[Yoyo423]

Without the playoffs, he'd be coming back.

But the way he showcases himself in 4 nationally televised games against top 10 teams would justify him leaving.

I hope he stays but I'd understand if he left.

 

[TriStarCane]

Haven’t seen him listed top 10 at his position on any mock drafts or rankings. He will make more coming back to school easily

 

[Canes Legacy]

Come back, make $, turn into a first round pick.
