Talked to a legitimate source this weekend and here are some key notes to point out.

1. Gerald Willis was so good that scout team practices often couldn't run well with him in the lineup. For this reason he was often given days to focus on academics only. Expect huge, huge things.

2. New nutritionist and S&C coaches are kicking *** and getting our guys in shape.

3. Felder is working a lot with Stacy Coley to strengthen his legs. They thought he was week in this area but expect him to be healthier and in his top shape this season.

4. Gus Edwards will have a breakout year. "Better than Derek Henry." I laughed too, but the staff truly believes he is that good. Fingers crossed he lives up to this hype

5. Chris Herndon has really become a great blocker and will be great to have supporting Njoku

6. Trent Harris might be a sleeper for defensive performance. Doesn't have a flashy style of play but will be consistent.

7. Kendrick Norton will be very, very good

8. O Line is still the weakest link. Staff is hoping Bar Milo can step up and help this unit.

GTFOH here with that. Gus be a contributor here but he's not D. Henry.

Happy about everything else, except the OL. We all knew that was a work in progress.

I would love to believe all of this but the on thing that sticks out as BS in this is #5 . How has Herndon been evaluated as becoming a great blocker in off-season weights and conditioning? LOL they haven't even started Spring practice much less put full pads on and ran an offensive set under Richt.
 
This "legit" source sounds like a ball boy or some jock sniffer that has access to the program. No legit source says things like #5 that cannot be known right now and I will also add #1 in that grouping. Come on now.

Not going to reveal my source for obvious reasons, but I will say that your speculation is way off. Just passing along what I heard... Take it for what it's worth. There will always be doubters on these threads. Hopefully some people get some excitement out of this

People keep laughing about Edwards but he's gonna shock people


What do you base that on? There's a lot of film on him. Derek Henry he is not - not even close. I'll be happy if they can get him to lower his pad level. But anyone expecting Derek Henry Part II is setting themselves up for disappointment.

Exactly...

He's BETTER.

You don't think that someone watching practices would be able to tell if Gerald Willis was dominating or not? I mean, it doesn't take an NFL scout to see a defensive lineman making plays and bullying O-linemen. He practiced with the scout team for the whole 2015 season.
 
the perverbial completely unfounded Miami fan comparison to either a Miami great or top player in college football
 
Keep trying to tell some of y'all haters that Gus Edwards is a special talent... This is an entirely different coaching staff, and a legitinate one, that expects great things from him.

That is why Kehoe had to Go, he was not bringing in the road graders and the guys who did come like Darling, Milo and St. Louis wanted to be here anyway. If we can fix that OL, Kaaya will be able to really dissect defenses.

No mention of Yearby better than Cook? If not, you have skeptical sauces...

And people wonder why we were awful under Golden.

"Oh we can't run against him. Take him out of the lineup so we can practice our plays."

Shame we couldn't ask the opposition to do that.
 
Trent Harris a sleeper??? He's already been a good, consistent d linemen for us. He's not a star, but he's been solid. As for Gus, comparing him to Henry is straight up hyperbole, but I'm glad to have him toting the rock for us, especially with another year in the weight room.

I'm pretty sure they mean he was dominating other scout players, not that he was dominating the 1st team O.

I'm fairly certain Willis didn't see much work against the 1st team offense.
