Signed Charlotte and y’all were complaining about his transferring.
I never complain about a transfer when they end up at a worse program. USF Illinois Charlotte fiu fau etc.Signed Charlotte and y’all were complaining about his transferring.
I like McCloud and the different looks he can present with his previous LB experience. I agree and also think he will have an "above expectations" type of year.I think a lot of people on this board are going to have to eat their words this season in regard to McCloud. Wouldn’t surprise me if he ends up with all ACC honors at DE
I want to believe but not sure we have the horses unless they start moving people around. If they haven't already moved Roberts to DE then everyone should be fired and the season cancelled. McCloud's issue seems to be the lowest football IQ imaginable, and I don't see how that won't continue being a problem at DE. They'll run right at him because he's 240 lbs, and if not then they will naked bootleg us to death when he takes the bait and crashes inside on play action. The kid's been here 6 years and can't spell the word 'cat'.McCloud will barely be on the field after the first 2 or 3 games.
I didn't see many complain about his transfer tbh...Signed Charlotte and y’all were complaining about his transferring.
I don't think that's true. I think he's firmly in the rotation.McCloud will barely be on the field after the first 2 or 3 games.
That 2019 class is really Fvckin us right now. What a mess.
Basically 75% of that class was a miss or TBD. Rough.That 2019 class is really Fvckin us right now. What a mess.
Besides, I’m not sure there are newspapers in Louisiana. I’ll bet reading levels their are pretty low, maybe not enough to keep it profitable for a newspaper.Terrible example. That’s LSU in the $EC. We are UM in the “lustful” city of Miami with a local media who report more intensely the bad than the good. That’s where my perception is coming from. Historically we always get the short end from the outside word. Maybe Manny fixes that 30+ year old narrative but time will tell.
Was he though? I thought so too because of board hype at the time. But I know when @Lance Roffers looked at his physicals and testing, he was only average. I remember reading Lance's thread and thinking we had built McCloud into a CIS All American that he really wasn't.I’m pretty sure 99.9% of the board hope you are correct, but McCloud has been a major disappoint on the field. Great for lockeroom and off field but out of Shaq and Pinckney he was the athletic one and I think most last year thought would be a break out and it wasn’t. He’s been here for what 6 years and has been no better than a ST guy. I hope we are all wrong but my guess is he will be a rotational guy who gets about 4 sacks
Lances breakdowns always are a good measurement of players. I never went back to look at McClouds but yes I think we as fans overhyped him but I think that’s because Shaq and Pinck did so well and saw McCloud being more athletic and bigger and we figured he’d be at the level those other two performed at.Was he though?

You mean me screaming and posting about Nik Bonnito and Josh Uche and the staff not taking them or making them a big enough priority? Yes, I agree he has an issue evaluating those players. Which is so weird because they seem to be the exact archetype he's looking for in an upfield rush scheme that doesn't seem to value setting an edge.I do think he's got a blind spot when it comes to evaluating talent, especially those hybrid DE/LB types.
I don't think that's true. I think he's firmly in the rotation.
