Good pickups especially DJ Chester. I think we still need one more OL with P4 starting experience.
Safety Gilbert is in
2 more minimum with 1 being a P4 starting OT. Can?t go into the season without an answer at both tackle spotsQuote:

That's a really good pickup tbh. I know that is a kid Arnett wanted bad out of HS and we were close to getting him when he left A&M. He allows us to bring Womack along slowly.Quote:

Do we know anything new on Herring by chance?
Gilbert is Manning's replacement.Quote:

Can't take anything BSD says as truth. He's just a Genespage toxic positivity pumper and acts like an insider because he pays for 247. It's really weird and annoying and causes confusion on the board. Especially saying some guy is in before they've announced it.Quote:

We're waiting. Just like most of the guys. The portal, just like last year, has changed once again.Quote:

2026: Kids are taking 4-5 visits and making sure to take all of them.
gotta see who wants to pay the most.....
Since most are now being paid to visit it seems like this would happen.Quote:

Kendall Dolby has committed. If he can stay healthy, that's a hell of a steal for us. Just missing Gilbert and the secondary will be complete and MASSIVELY upgraded.
FYI: most of us have no clue who that is. If you could add a little color that would be greatQuote:

Isn't he kind of a diva though?Quote:

Could be. That why I'm asking.Quote:

Ga Tech probably offered more. I heard he didn't have the offers he thought he would and OM got him cheaper than what he was being offered to us. I also could see him just hitting the road N and going to play for Huff.Quote:

Agree plus another edge. Can we get them? I?m not confident but hopefully this week proves me wrongQuote:

Insanely athletic, a cannon for an arm, struggles with consistency, and sometimes doesn't make the right read.Quote:

Definitely. Which is also why, all do respect to my bud CD, but his idea of "tanking" would be an absolute disaster. You have to be competitive "enough" to recruit enough foundation guys. Guys like KT and all the other dudes we paid to retain. Yes, we've sucked, but it is getting better. You simply have to find a way to win games and look alive. Deciding to win only 4 or 5 games over a 3-4 period would absolutely bottom us out, and by the time that was over, NIL inflation would make our stockpile look like pittance.Quote:
