For now. We’ll see how long that lasts

I think Lovett was one of those kids that needed distance away to succeed. I didn’t like “how” he exited much like JJ but by all accounts he worked hard at practice and was doing well before deciding to leave
Shotgun, I like you, but you are doing a whole lot of assuming.
Lovett was his dad wanting Ole Miss money and Jones was tampering by Ealy, Mingo and TBuck. They both tried to go to Ole Miss before the AD got the word put on him. That's why they ended up at FSU, not because that was their first choice.
I agree that the D is going to be an issue ....but unlike the last two years when the "offensive savant" was in charge , the defense had to carry the team.. I do believe this offense is going to be prolific and will put pressure on the opponent to keep scoring.......couple that with fact that most teams are having questions at QB, there is a chance that we can mask some issues.
I'll go on record as saying that our D will be one of the worst in the league. It's going to be bad. For the first time in a while, we don't have a dominant d lineman. I like our LB corp but our secondary is bad. No depth and little experience back there.
We dont have a legit pass-rusher which means we better be good in the Secondary. Except that we arent very good there at all. Thats a problem.
We are green at LB'er and our best one struggles in pass coverage
Jucos need adjustment time
We dont have a dominant DL player for the 2nd year in a row and we lost arguably our best one to transfer.
Almost no depth
A good DC cant mask all that. They will play hard and thats all we can ask.
The defense is not going to be as bad as ya'll think it's going to be. We have some athletes and a scheme that's going to use that athleticism. Most of ya'll are too young to remember what Joe Lee Dunn did with the blitz. Bookmark this post and make me eat my words. HAIL STATE!
On the flip side, it seems the wide receivers have made a really big jump. Spurrier and Nichol know what they are doing... Leach wouldn’t have kept them this long if not.
Defense is going to struggle but I’m hoping with Vandy, Ark, Miss, and Ole Miss we can snag 4 or 5 wins. I’m looking at this season as a glorified pre-season for next year. It basically doesn’t count it’s just going to be great watching some SEC football, grilling, and drinking a little something.
