We Need Savages

well everyone thinks denzel is gone. if they are early enrollees that is great news because they get an off-season of strength training. i think Figs and Grace will step up next year. Armbrister is a solid back up. Kirby is really in hsi first season because last year he was throw in late after no training camp because of injury. Even if Denzel leaves we have 4 solid guys in my opinion. These two kids really,really help if they enrollee early.

We need jc but they need to go hard after adoree jackson he has great speed and ball skills and is a 5 star cb and i think he is visiting in january. D'onofrio scheme is hurting us, you hear recruits wanting to play defense for auburn,bama,fsu,lsu,uf and you never hear top defense recruits wanting to play in our d.

he prefers offense to defense and I don't think he has anything scheduled. I haven't heard anything about him and UM in a while
 
Hurricaneglory i think the cb recruiting is horrible, do you know if they are recruiting adoree jackson or stephen roberts? Also do you think this staff takes to many average and project recruits? Guys like moore,mayes,turner,armbrister,mccray,jenkins,herndon etc.
 
They say that uf currently leads for adoree and he said he will only play wr if he goes to usc.

I know great JUCO guys grow on trees, but for those that know these things, even you Paranos (i kid, I kid), anything out there in the LB, S, RB variety and is there any read on where Coker may end up, and when?

thanks in advance

as far as juco goes they just offered a 4 star lb d'vonta derricott. Is from va and is said to like miami. He is commited to kstate but is going to visit. He is 6'1 233 and his speed has been listed in 4.45-4.55, 247 has his 40 in the 4.3s range.

We need him bad and we also need TEs like Moral Stephens who will switch from WR to TE in college. One thing I have also been confused about is why UM has always recruit one dimensional QBs which makes the defense job easy. With a mobile QB the team would be dynamic (but kaaya is a BEAST just not mobile). Also, south florida host the most 7 on 7 tourneys so QBs are more prepared in reading coverages than the staff thinks. Also we need to look for a fifth year kicker transfer and close out hard on Juco defensive players. Future is bright.

Goons, Goblins....you name it. we need to get em here.

LB:

We currently have ONE good LB on the team (Perryman). Sure, some of the young guys like Grace, and Figs may turn out good....but they haven't proved it yet.

conclusion: We need to hold onto Owens, Young, Terry and I think we need add one more juvenile that is bout that Thug Life. Names to watch for: Kenny Young, Dwight Williams.

DL:

This is the unit where championship teams are built. We currently have a nice young tandem at DE with AQM and McCord and will add two elite pass rushers in C.Thomas and Jackson. M.Smith and T.Harris also are quick off the edge but will probably need a year to develop physically (redshirt). DT's currently on the team are average at best sadly.

Conclusion: Let's hope Wyche is the real deal up front. Needless to say, we need to hold onto Valentine and need to find a replacement for Stuckey assuming he can't get in. We probably need 2 more DTs (3 if Stuckey is out). Names to watch out for: Anthony Moten, Cory Johnson, Claudeson Pelon, Terrell Clinkscales, Edmond Boateng, Kentavious Street.

DB:

It pains my heart to see the likes of 30 and 22 roaming our secondary smh. These guys are hardworkers and all, but this is The U. Look at the monsters that we used to trot out in our era of dominance...Reed, Taylor, Phillips, Rolle, Merriweather, etc. We need to do a better job stockpiling talent back there....it makes a huge difference. FSU and UF have stout defenses because of the talent on their DL and Secondary....a bunch of 4 and 5 stars. Look at their last few recruiting classes and how they addressed those units.....that's what we need to do. We are headed in the right direction with guys like Howard, Burns, Crawford, and a healthy Bush...but we need plenty more elite guys. I don't know much about Mayes and Turner but we need to hit on these guys. Bethel has the quicks and athletic ability to be a nice cover corner.

Conclusion: We need to get JC Jackson.

RB:

Our depth is bad. At Miami, we should never have to rely on a single back for our running success. Crawford is a nice reliever and did help us win against UNC...this is not something we should expect from him moving forward. We need elite guys. In fact, given our recruiting base, we should ONLY be bringing in elite guys every year. Thankfully, we have two committed, albeit on the small side. Need to get a power back.

Conclusion: Flip Phony, stay on Cook until the bitter end.


WR:

We have a nice core, but depth can be a little better. Not having Dorsett last night really limited our big play ability....it really helps having a deep threat that can burn his guy and get open downfield. Waters, Coley, Dorsett, and Scott, will give us a strong unit next year and we add a nice slot chain mover in Berrios. Langham could be a red zone weapon with his size too.

Conclusion: We can use another deep ball threat but I don't see anyone on the radar that fits that need. Does Lane or Dixon have that kind of speed? Names to watch out for: Johnnie Dixon, Ermon Lane, Eric Lauderdale.


OL:

This unit showed flashes of dominance early in last night's game. The one thing Corch Randy did well was recruit the OL (or maybe that credit should go to Stoutland). We are losing Linder, Wheeler, and Henderson and return, Flowers, Feliciano, McDermott, Bunche, Gall, Wells, Isidora, gadbois, Odogwu, and Knighton. Nice size, but alot of unproven guys in there. We reload with two savages in S.McDermott and T.Darling and two future starters in Gibbons and Linder.

Conclusion: I would like to see another road grader at OG....most of our OL seem to better suited for tackle.

QB: Future looks really good. Between Olsen and Kaaya....we are finally going to emerge with an elite QB after all these years. Thank God. If we had a good QB, we probably take FSU down to the wire last night...that's how much of a difference a good QB can make.

TE: I don't really see us targeting any TEs this cycle and I'm trying to figure out why. Walford is gone after next year, Cleveland after this season. Sandland hasn't shown anything. Is Jake O Donnell still on the roster? We have only one TE committed and its not clear if he will stick. Herndon certainly has the tools from what I've seen, but we need another guy here badly.

Coaching can only get you so far. If we take care of our business with this class, do the same in 2015.....we will be ready to compete for a championship. Can't afford to ***** this up.

him and juwon will really add to lb depth. with figs, kirby, and grace a year stronger. we can hopefully redshirt them.

Aren't they both ee?

They are. Our LB depth is nonexistent I don't think they redshirt

Sure is. Anyone know why we didn't go after Skai Moore harder? Kid is starting for South Carolina and looks like the type of LB we need.

OLB Board

6
Grace/Figs
Skai Moore

staff thought 6 was coming. With Eddie Johnson and gabe terry still on campus there was no need to take 4 OLBs

Every time I see Skai Moore make a play for USC I get upset. Major miss by the staff, even if Thomas was a silent (I've heard from people I trust that he was).

As far as WR, I think we close with Dixon, and suspect Phillips will drop UF soon (2015).

JC should be out of there soon too... That UF dumpster fire is about to go off. We need to raid that class.

I agree we need to raid Uf class. Man they have some dogs or goons whatever on that defense. They play man to man in your face with that nfl ready secondary.I hate the gaytors more than fswho,but I can't wait to see Winston against that defense.That is a old Miami style D.
 
What's up with that Glass kid at the safety position. I hear he left his team or got kicked off but is a stud. I WANT.

Takes this class to the next level. I feel like we are getting the right guys on the OL/DL we just need to develop them.
