Maybe JW ? Other than him, who? As long as we mostly confine out recruiting to such a small region we are going to have to take what the area produces. JMO but once we go out of state for any recruit at any position we don't have an advantage over other SEC schools. Jake Bentley last year and the kid from Saraland in 2018.

It's on Gus for not at least listening to CDC and it's on CDC for getting caught up on himself and mentally lost focus on the team at some points.

He could not handle DC alpha male. And as a WR coach he should not have been an alpha male in that setting although he should have been listened to more IMO.

I was thinking DT since it's consensus that we must have a DT to run the Malzahn offense. I do hate that JB is elsewhere but it was pretty certain that he would be where his dad was coaching.....and I see West is looking at Stanford....smart boy. But I'm back to my same old argument .....we need to spread our nets wider instead of getting fixed on one player ....and often it seems on a guy where we are not even a top consideration and I wonder if a top QB who sees himself in the NFL some day is interested in going the DT route...which generally does not to lead anywhere after college.

Gowebb11 9,320 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I know most of us don't care for Dan Mullen, but he can find some talented DT QBs. Obviously Dak was special, and Nick Gibson is starting to come into his own and putting up some great numbers. The DTs are there and in our recruiting span. Our staff just needs to be better at evaluating them, then developing them. I am hopeful for Woody Barrett to be really good in a year or two.

That type of scenario is what turns a regular person that has good ideas (in his mind) into an alpha male. It seems CDC had been here long enough and didn't feel the love.

tigerfangs 269 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Someone that "claims" to be in the know says Tray and grandparents have met with Kevin Sherrer 3 times recently. They feel strongly the flip will come very soon. Also that he wants to play safety. This is free info from dawgs24/7 and just an opinion. For what it's worth...

All that talk about Hurts development at bama also has to take that into context as well. He's a turnover machine on a team that every position they aren't better then their opponent how do you think he does? He averages over 2 turnovers a game. He had 2 INTs against us and a fumble(overturned) and 2 other mistakes that put the ball in the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A coach just has to live with them and try to minimize them if he has to start one. Hurts had 3000 yards passing and 1000 yards rushing. Id take those numbers and turnovers in a heartbeat. I don't agree with your Mullins statement either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This seems to contradict why he opted for the O&B in the first place doesn't it? I thought he wanted a chance to try out at the QB position and we were going to give him that chance. I'm sure we could use a 6'3" S on the team if that is where he wants to play. Oh well, that is recruiting for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gr82b4au 5,568 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 He is quoted in an article somewhere saying he wants to play safety in College. I read it this morning but I can't find it now.
