corchjay 5,311 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 In you guys opinion who do y'all expect to step it up and everyone take notice. This will be the coaches praise in the media guys because we won't actually get to see. For me... Offense Horton, R. Davis, NCM, and M. Miller Defense Brown, Atkinson, Coe, (Mathews by default) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionheartkc 6,150 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Offense Sal (just because we haven't had a fully utilized play making tight end in forever), NCM (because he's finally healthy and wants it), Stove (I think he will be our star receiver), and hopefully Horton. Defense Daniel Thomas (he's got the heart, he just needs the reps), Coe, Brown, Cowart... and a longshot, but I'm interested to see is Askew cracks the rotation and makes waves.

AUld fAUx@ 2,584 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 My hope is that it's Coach Lindsey, even it it is just in Coach Malzahn's eyes/notice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnacle 9,064 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 I'm excited about Paul James III, and I'm expecting Marlon Davidson to assume the role of disrupter in chief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oracle79 3,569 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 The ESPN #1 recruit in the country 2 years ago needs to step up. One of the receivers needs to step up and show he's "the man". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want 2-3 to step up and be "the man" so that teams can't just focus on one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyAU 3,634 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 I really want Malik Miller to come into his own this year. He'd be a good bridge between Pettway and KJ IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I agree i'd like to see multiple receivers and backs/TE's with double digit catches, but I want one guy to be the guy the other team's defensive coordinator has to to scheme for or he's gonna get beat (i.e. Julio, Hopkins, Watkins, Megatron, etc). Maybe not to the degree of those guys, but someone that if you cover him one on one, he's gonna make you pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarEagleHunter1221 1,690 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I can see Davidson stepping into a leadership role on the defensive side of the ball. He has it in him for sure. I agree with the above comments on the wide receivers. That group as a whole needs to step up now that we have a proper QB and play caller.... hopefully.

McLoofus 35,182 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I think we see Tre Williams take that same leap that Monty Adams did from "really good player" to "holy sh** this is his team now". Tray Matthews to a lesser degree on that side of the ball. I think Davidson is a given. So is Brown, IMO. Looking for more from the other guys inside. I hope we hear good things about Coe. Horton and/or Harrell. Hopefully Darius James? Miller, Martin, Cox. Still pulling for Jason Smith. I don't think he's suddenly a 20 catch guy but as a senior in a crazy young unit with athleticism to spare, he's a big play waiting to happen if he can just keep his head on straight.

JFDTiger80 790 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I agree with all the above. I want Stidham to show out as well. He needs to be not only good, but great at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milehighfan 1,240 Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 On offense, naturally I want Stidham to step front and center, plus I would love to see all the wide receivers and the new offenaive lineman and our new TE Sal Canella. On defense, I want to see Davidson and Brown to step forward plus I would love for Cowart to show why he was named the #1 recruit in the country two years ago.
