Spring game

If we feature Lofton as our version of Bowers, than a WR1 in the portal isn’t as grave of a need. Would still be nice to have, but only if they are a slamdunk WR1 coming in - and by that, they should be levels above CJ and much more experienced than Jojo/Carr. Just not sure there will be someone that fits that criteria in the portal.

We don't have enough WRs. Injuries happen.

Whose baby Jesus

you're asking the right questions! "Whose baby is Jesus?" Let's explore that:
  • Historically: He was the child of a ****** family in 1st-century Palestine.
  • Culturally: He's been embraced by billions across time—Christians, of course, but also admired or recognized in Islam, secular philosophy, literature, and more.
  • Metaphorically: You could say he's everyone's "baby" in that he's a figure people project hope, identity, or meaning onto.
  • Philosophically: The question opens the door to deeper themes of ownership, identity, faith, and belonging. Is Jesus the symbol of divine incarnation? The property of a religion? A universal symbol of innocence and transformation?
So, whose baby Jesus?

The simplest answer is: Mary's—but in many ways, he's seen as the world's.

No he didn't ask who's (who is) which you would have answer wonderfully. He asked whose which is used to indicate possession, as in “Whose baby Jesus are you talm bout?"

You guys didn’t miss much. This game was nearly cancelled but they decided to stick with it. Many players didn’t play and you can tell there was minimal effort.


The best and the most important part of spring is next Wednesday. Hang on to your butts.

Brock Schott looked just like bowers today with catch and the ball in his hands

I hear you. But do we need a WR1 in this offense? Seems like we did not last year.

same story as last year. everyone calling for a WR1 when there are multiple guys making plays. Toney sounds like Restrepo stepping up right now. Let's see what the others do. I'm all for sitting pat with who we have although it seems like at least one WR will be coming in
 
With the Nico news coming after the ITU podcast, they may think different, but Lake and Gaby seemed to think this spring portal won't be that good from a talent entering the portal perspective. They felt teams are way out in front of talent retention, Im sure many are also using rev share piece as future money promise.

WR
DT
S

Those 3 I feel we must address. Proven WR, DT that has some experience, and a safety that has some experience.

I would take a proven LB if available, but LB seems hard to get bigtime quality lately. Not opposed to another RB, but what RB is coming here with promise of being a 3rd team guy? Maybe a team loaded who has a 6th guy looking for more snaps, or small school guy wanting P4 oppirtunity.

With the emergence of Toney, I would have been getting Ray Ray some snaps at RB this spring for that emergency situation. He was athlete in high school moreso than WR, I feel he could play RB in a pinch here.

Toney looked really good. Several players made nice plays per usual. Hopefully, these guys excell when given the opportunity. I am not confusing that laid back atmosphere with a game, though. Since everyone hasn't somehow figured this out yet, outside of injury, CJ, JoJo and a portal WR will be the starting WR's. It doesn't matter if the portal WR is a outside or slot guy. Their is a lot of young talent on this team. The WR room has the most talent it has had in a very long time in my opinion and I am still getting another proven WR for my $3 million QB. Luke has looked better the last few practices. I believe he could be the guy, eventually. We need a backup QB for this season. I am excited to see if the portal additions are close to what I expect and they meet expections. Go Canes.
