Some birthday musings as I hit my 39th trip around the sun.
We get so worried and fixate on what we don't have, sometimes its refreshing to remember what we do have and enjoy them while they're here.
QB- Levis or bust
RB-Further development of Mclain and Wright. The staff has high expectations on what Mclain can do, if he can start putting it together he could be our most explosive back since Boom. And I think the absence of AJ rose this past year showed what you miss when you don't have a good 1-2 punch to compliment a benny/c-rod style back.
WR- We're going to hear about the athleticism of Baker and the dangerous combo Baker, Robinson, and our TE's make.
OL- Schlarman recruited and developed, Wolford pushed the pieces that were assembled, Yenser is going to have to develop and piece the puzzle back together again. Culture is established, hope the talent in the pipeline can develop to the existing standard.
DL is going to be beast for us, biggest question is the paschal replacement factor. But the back to back great classes we brought in is going to be huge.
LB we're so deep inside i don't know how they divide up the playing time. Square and Jones going to be all over plays as they develop, buy Wallace is so damn explosive I don't know how we keep him off the field.
OLB- Wright and Weaver are going to be war daddies, something special. Watching these two next year is what gets me excited about this team. But we need some depth behind them.
DB-safety going to be solid, I think DB will be quite a bit better then many are lamenting about, especially with the Ole Miss guy coming in. Need a player to show up at nickel back, big gap now vito hurt, D rob can you sneak back in for one more season, lol. Valentine is better then many think, took some of lumps, but has the athleticism and showed improvement as the season went on.
This biggest thing i think we forget is that these KIDS do improve. A sophomore player is not the same player their junior and senior year. Unless they're just completed out classed physically don't write someone off.
