SJ Alofaituli- season stats, other interesting stats. Mensah is saving the line

It is never black and white. It was a combination of demands (money, starting…) & he clearly wasn’t as interested in working on his body. There likely more to it. He is more of an ot and we likely had McCoy, Samson, Cantwell ahead of him.

Bell is the kid that should have stayed. Imo if we are just looking at best options.

Otherwise, sorta surprised they didn’t take a center or OG that had p4 starts.
We got screwed bad with the 5 year rule. I dont think Bell even wanted to come back, he didnt really try.. But I have to think if 5 year rule is in place prior, Anez Cooper could have been convinced instead of 6th round pick.. Bell would of been MAJOR but we can see the value of what a Cooper would have bought now also.. Not super high ceiling but extremely high consistent battle tested floor..

Cooper comes back, plays guard, SJ sits, then Cantwell comes in plays T or G, moves McCoy inside, Buchanan doesn’t sniff a starting job. Then figure out what to do with Rodriguez. Sucks.
 
Wake was throwing a ton of movement at us and scheming it up to confuse our linemen. Even Samson was confused badly on at least three plays I remember from rewatch.

I don’t think they trusted the freshmans to be able to handle that at all.

The freshmans are too tall and play too high at the moment to handle guard and can’t be trusted on the edge to protect your Heisman level qb.

Mario and Mirabel put themselves in this pickle and they’re going to have to coach their way out of it. Godspeed.

ALOT of teams do movement and simulated pressures and such.. Everybody is copying Haines and taking stuff from Macdonald/Minter even the all mugged up lines and such like Flores.. Just all out assault on the oline and seeing if their communication is on point..

Clemson do a bunch of games and stunts so we got less than 2 weeks to figure it out..
 
But what about Heatherman getting pressure with his blitzing…The WF qb was good, but I didn’t see him have many broken plays. He was contained in the pocket. Mensah and Toni will win us the ACC
