pensacolatiger 313 Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 But I don’t think we’re that far from being a top 10 team…….. 1) a couple of studs at OL 2) a couple of studs at DL 3) wr coach - done I know losing to UGA by 24 sucks, but that was probably the best team we’ll play this season. And minus a ton of drops, we were scrapping 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnEagle79 2,170 Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 The OL would get us to top 10 IMO. Passing becomes much easier when you can run the ball at will. I agree with your sentiment though, we probably aren't as far off as it appears on paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how close we are, but as of right now they are indisputably the best team in the nation. What's fun is that on a sheer power ranking, #2-11 in the SEC is kind of a crapshoot. Obviously Vandy is bottom with USCe and Mizzou tied at 12. Edited October 10, 2021 by AUwent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seth Williams was a stud and had all the right stuff to make him a great WR. He unfortunately had Kodi Burns as a coach and he played in an offense did nothing but hinder him for 4 years from progressing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boisnumber1 2,828 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 We need QB, OL, WR on O. I think we are a long way on that side of the ball. Everything but TE and RB needs personnel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're talking about someone that gets the best talent here, you have a point...otherwise, no Exactly. At this level if guys just can’t catch a decently thrown ball, all the coaching in the world won’t matter. Harsin and staff were not left in the best shape by Gussie. We have drew Bobo, but we need at least 3 stud OL and at least 2 pass rushers to compete, as well as a large mobile DT. We also need a couple of receivers that can actually catch the damn ball. Granted, we blew a number of chances to put points on the board against UGA, but hell, our secondary was burned by a 2nd string QB and they are also missing Pickens, their best WR. Also, I am far from sold on Mason as DC as well as whomever our CB coach is. I just really don’t see how we beat Ole Miss, Arky, Tamu or Bama.. it would be great to steal 2 of those, but we also face Miss St who has a QB very caiabke of lighting up our bad secondary. 6 wins is definitely not a given. I am more anxious to see how we round out our 22 recruiting class w so many glaring holes. It’s now so obvious how Gussie was not recruiting players needed to compete in this league. Almost like Bowden left the crap team he did to Tubberville. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
