any chance he'd walk on and play on ST at Bammer? I got a couple legit 5* cats I'd rather RS.....
I'm not sure if he is the last of the cancers or not- but I would imagine that any that are left have gotten the message to straighten up if they want to play.
Right now we're paying for Dan's JUCO heavy recruiting with out of whack numbers in 2016-2017 and as you said Joe's discipline which destroyed Dan's culture. I've railed Hevesy and Billy Gonzalez a lot but Joe is the main problem that we have had to fix right now. Kudos to Erroll Thompson- that's what real leadership on a unit looks like. And no doubt Joe's lack of discipline was an indirect factor in Kylin leaving.
It's pretty unbelievable that we had a linebacker knock out our QB in a fist fight...and that linebacker still got to play in the Music City Bowl. What kind of message does that send? I'm a little surprised that Cohen didn't step in and tell Joe that Gay wasn't going to play. Maybe he figured he was going to fire Joe anyway and it would just add fuel to the fire. And with Kylin tapping out- with a guy like Dantzler making "business decisions" and playing when he wants- a guy like Kylin is going to see that and of course he's going to think it's OK to tap out when he wants to.
Todd - that's a great point about the '16 and '17 classes having impacts now.
From '16 (Redshirt Srs/year 5) - of 19 players signed we have 7 on the roster - which probably isn't a bad amount. 3 guys are in the NFL (Simmons, Dantzler, & Jordan Thomas). One guy is at UF.
But that '17 class - as much short term talent as it brought us, it is wrecking us this season. This class would be RS JR or true SR right now. We signed 25. 4 never made it to campus.
If Kylin opts out, all that is left are Aaron Odum, Austin Williams, James Jackson, Tucker Day, and Powers Warren. Yeah, a ton of that class are in the NFL now - but it's left a huge personnel and leadership vacuum.
You have me confused with someone else. I rarely post during games or after games because of all the emotion that is fresh. I try to wait until the next morning and that’s why I have done SMQB the last 8-9 years. A player- no matter who they are- shouldn’t quit multiple times in their career and then always expect to be taken back with open arms. It’s gets played out- especially when you are 22 years old. That’s an extreme lack of maturity.
