Did we upgrade a single position in the portal?

[Lost In FL]

I'm tiring of our defensive scheme. I watched pretty intently all year other teams defensive strategies. A lot of em had some kind of advanced rushing the passer concepts. Like bring an end in to have the left tackle be fo used on him. Left guard on a DL and same with the center.
At the point of snap the end would fall back into coverage and the linebackers and Safeties would come up and rush 3 at once at the center or guard. Well he could only block one guy so that leaves 2. RB would pick up 1 and the other one left would sack BV or a TFL. We never do this. Many many other teams do and they create havoc in the backfield.

Of course allowing a 10 yard cushion when they need 7 is the dumbest strategy I've seen in a while

I think losing Wallace early and then DJack to injury really scaled back what UK could do. Recall 2 years ago, Deone Walker dropping back and making a big hit against UF for Wallace INT.

Speaking of DW, what did he decide to do?

On that topic ... it seems UK has more players leave early to make no noise or even a roster spot in the league. Boom, Bowden, Heard, and to some extent Snell. It is frustrating to watch the rinse and repeat. Egos?

That is not actual results those are fantasies of someone's own mind.

I guess that fits in around here since most everyone seems to have fantasies about the team and not based in reality

Sure guy, I mean that site I posted is just a bunch of morons who got together 25 years ago and created one of the most trusted resources for fantasy football. You know, that fantasy game that turned into a major money maker.

But sure, continue to point out the obvious and blame everyone but the man in charge. Everything will turn out fine in about six more seasons when Stoops finally leaves.

By the way, that site you posted is about as trustworthy as a broken dick.

A Locked on Kentucky Facebook post says Kentucky has the 5th rated Transfer Portal class. Don't know whose opinion that is but it sounds like an upgrade.

Unless Stoops and Hamdan have left or are leaving before game 1, then they could have picked up Lamar and Henry and it wouldn't matter.

The article you posted was out before the season even began, there's nothing to go off of there, after the results of the season have shown their line to be awful.

Really don't care what you think. You can link pre season fantasy articles. I post actual in season results with numbers backing them up.
Your just mad that it flies in your face of fantasies

58 more teams have bowl games to play. There will be a lot more roster turnover going forward

Currently have the 7th best portal class according to 247.

I think the early schedule is a bit of a problem for a team full of transfers. Ole Miss in week 2 is a really big game. Ole Miss will have the same issue except they pretty much land who they want in the portal.

Bottom line you should have a good idea if they nailed the portal.

I hope they are all upgrades. But who knows. We supposedly had one of the best portal classes last off-season and we got 4 wins out of it.

Did we get rid of the dead weight which is just as important.

The dead weight is the coaching staff.

We have some good players coming in but we also have like 14 commits so it's a big class. That's part of the reason why it's ranked so high. But, it's about as good as can be expected considering our situation.

We have 21 signees, and via Rivals’ point system, are ranked 24th.

And actually we are receiving no boost based on class size: re-arraign the list based on average Star Rating, and we are . . . 24th in the nation, exactly on par with our points rating. Sometimes class size warps the point-system average by a few spots, but not for us, YET.

Re-arraign based on total class size, and 44 of the 100 teams listed have more than 21 recruits/signees. And oddly, at the moment, exactly 44 have less than 21 signees.

12 teams (like UK) are perfectly balanced as the median number at 21 . . . likely also the average within a shade.

If Stoops hangs on to 8 Four Star signees and a 3.38 average Star rating, it will be among the Top 5 classes he has signed based on Rivals’ analysis.

Sounds like someone “ponied up!”

There talking about portal guys but you are correct about HS recruits

 

[seccats04]

I can't believe Stoops is gonna run it back with the same coaching staff (except WR coach, who got out while he could) but I would like to see the following changes.
Hamdan- he might be the worst OC Stoops has had and that's saying something
Stewart- not a great recruiter and the DL constantly underachieves; LeBlanc was way better
Mike Stoops- LB's have not developed since he's been here
Buffano- not a good recruiter or coach; safeties are always out of position

While I think Marrow and Wolford are bad position coaches, they recruit like madmen so you have to keep them. Although, it seems like Marrow's talent eveluation has taken a big hit the last few years.

According to several over on KSR Facebook page stoops had “massively” updated from last years rosters (I have screen shots)
