I know a lot of people are going to say OL but I think it's CB. You have Ivey and Blades returning but everyone else is pretty inexperienced. If we bring in another Transfer then it needs to be a CB in my opinion

CB & LT.

Need to bring in Meiko Dotson or Christian Holmes & Henry Hattis.

I wouldn't mind seeing Cochran from Vandy at the top of the list either. I know a lot of people want another WR, but I think we need a WR Coach before we make that move and even then I think we should wait until after spring practice to determine where we're with the position.

He's going to Georgia Tech
 
Nothing is a “pressing need” at the moment outside of improvement on coaching and motivating these kids mentally when they have opportunity to improve and not being relaxed. you added even more elite depth to the 2nd most important position on the field with Quincy Roche at de to have a top 4 of Rousseau, philips, Roche and Harvey which is clear cut Elite. Got a good kicker to boot as well.

Addressed the most important position on the team with a dynamite qb who is a great thrower of the football but also a dynamic athlete and is a highlight waiting to happen.

sure we could use another corner or OT but that’s more of a want than a NEED at the moment. Let’s see how everything transpires after spring. I feel Fully comfortable of having dj scaife as our starting tackle preferably left tackle over Zion because he’s our most experienced tackle and currently blocks the best and most consistent. I’m fine with Nelson and rivers battling it out at right tackle and rivers coming in as an early enrollee given his frame and talent is HUGE. The interior oline should improve imo. I wouldnt be opposed to adding the Stanford kid.

At cb
Fully comfortable with blades and I think Couch steps up big time.

Whether we like it or not Ivey is an experienced starter(so is blades). He should improve and if he doesn’t we have some other talented corners who should be in the mix like Christian Williams, dunson etc. it’s not a doomsday scenario some like to perceive it as currently constructed but we will see. I guess getting that fau cb will be a good move but you get him and then what? Sitting in the same spot next year worrying about who is going to step up after the fau kid is gone in 2021 season. We got to start building depth with them getting meaningful EXPERIENCE(receiver And cb). Those 2 positions are the easiest for young players to get on the field the fastest

Until we all see King run the O, I'm going with QB. I'm as excited as anyone over his potential in a Lashlee O, but he needs to perform or we will be in 6-7 **** another year.

I told you not to post after eating the edibles.

It results in drivel like this.
 
we need a plug and play WR or OT, preferably with at least 2 more years left if we are going to use a counter for him and with proven experience.

This strategic use of et cetera made me laugh out loud. You listed every CB enrolled and committed by name, except for Clarke. Your "etc" is literally one TF.

Blades, Ivey, and Couch taking up the two boundaries and nickel, Williams, Dunson, and Etc (i.e., Clarke) as reserves. Most P5 schools are out here with 8-9 scholarship CBs. UM has 6 (in the fall) once Dunson signs.

CB and OT are our two biggest roster needs. Assuming we have 2 spots remaining, I'm hoping we address those with eligible transfers.
 
If you can get a solid OT and a solid CB, that would be more important than a freshman DT.

Always with the blind homer spin lol smh...

We have 4 CB's that's not even a playable 2-deep, there isn't a single legit P5 program with just 4 CB's for Spring.

Dunson & Clarke don't get here til Summer/Fall camp, they're TF 's who need time to maturate & develop before being forced into PT due to the depth situation.

Ivey is not a good CB, there's no debating it, even a retarded homer couldn't argue that he's good, he's a big time liability in coverage & has no recovery speed at all. We need a CB that will take his spot, because as long as he's a starter his side of the field will get attacked forcing us to the change the Defense by rotating help to his side making us more vulnerable.

CB is a glaring issue because we don't have enough depth & we have just one guy who's proven they can cover. I think Couch will be good at Nickel, but that's not enough. We need a GT CB.

Of course you don't think we have any glaring issues, **** you were okay with us sticking with Jarren before we got King lol. We could have just 2 CB's on the roster & you would be in here spinning like, "we don't need anymore Corners guysm! We only can play two at a time!" Lol smh.
