twilli13 600 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 (edited) Anyone besides me wondering about d line recruiting for 2019? We killed it in 2016, but seemed to take a step back in the last 2 classes. Coynis Miller being the exception. Someone with insider knowledge please tell me this was by design.

It's too soon to write off the 2017 & 2018 classes. In 2017 we signed essentially 2 Buck Ends in Big Cat & TD Moultry, who came on late this year. There have been reports of DT Truesdell making good progress as a freshman. Alec Jackson could play DT or SDE. In 2018 Newkirk is underrated as a 3* & better than Coynis IMO. He had a damn good year in juco & will be in the rotation next season. I'm really excited to see what Jibunor can do at the Buck End Spot.. Kayode has the look. Let's see how he develops. Also there is a very real possibility we sign Caleb Tannor in February as a SDE. That would be 4 4*s & a should be 4* in Newkirk in this class. Pretty damn good haul if they pan out.

I dont see any sure fire nfl talent there besides maybe Moultry and Big cat(if he puts on weight). Jibunor reminds me of a slew of undersized guys at d end weve signed over the years that never panned out. I dont see any ready made true d end guys with a body type like Davidson. We need those type guys imo. As for d tackle, which is my even bigger concern, making good progress is great, but it alone aint gonna get us the sec championship back. We need dominant players to beat the murders row competition we will now be facing in amen corner annually. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcgufcm 4,096 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 (edited) I’d say I could not possibly disagree more on the DL recruiting. Truesdell cracked the rotation as a true freshman on the best DL in the SEC. He’s going to be a stud. Moultry is a star talent. He was almost as productive as Lawson was his freshman year. Bryant looks like a true DE. With or without Holland next year, you’ll see more of both of those guys. This year, Newkirk is underrated. He’s going to be an instant impact guy. Jibunor looks like Dee Ford with his first step, but he’s thicker than Ford was when he first arrived. In my view, DL has been the most well-recruited position on the team for three straight years.

Slew of undersized DEs that never panned out? Do tell. Also, do you think that our failure rate at DE is significantly higher than at other positions and at other schools? Yeah, we need more Marlon Davidsons (and Derrick Browns). Because you can't win unless your DL is loaded with 5* guys who are NFL ready as freshmen. And goodness knows there are plenty of them to go around. We had one of the 2 best D lines in the country this year, and we're returning all of it except maybe Jeff Holland, who we signed (along with Cowart) despite Muschamp and TRob leaving. But yeah, we really need Rodney to get it in gear. Dude's been napping. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgufcm 4,096 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Holland was kind of undersized for a DE as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do remember the tall, skinny kid who was supposed to be super quick but never really worked out. Can't remember his name. But it seems like we've had at least one future 3rd-or-better rounder starting at rush end almost every season. Even Corey Lemonier survived the Chizik experiment.

mcgufcm 4,096 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 You thinking of Kennion or Thornton? Both were really tall, thin guys. Not undersized like Ford (6’2” and under 200 lbs. as a signee) or Jibunor (6’3” and around 205 lbs. right now) but thin for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgufcm 4,096 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Jibunor reminds me of Tuberville-era DE signees. Hyper athletic. Trading size for rush speed. He’s in the mold of Reggie Torbor or Marcus Washington or Marquis Gunn or even a guy like Antonio Coleman (who played LB in HS). And Dee Ford is the obvious comp. Ford’s first step was so good he actually played DE in an SEC game as a true freshman weighing no more than 200 pounds. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lala 327 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 I get what he is saying. IMO, We need a Derrick Brown or Monty Adams type (top end) recruit every other year, and a D Russell (solid) every year on the interior. We do ok with the Russell but need a Brown. In regards to Holland TD and Big Kat are above where Holland was n his first two yrs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We took lowly ranked Kennion from Tubs and Cincy in 2013. Not sure what your last sentence means (in relation to the rest of the post) though.

I know Swift looks good, but they'll be playing really young next season. That's how I'm trying to look at it to take some of the sting away from their monstrous recruiting cycle this year....lol. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
