I'm waiting on some news on the OL/DL.
Maybe a defense scheme change is just what this guy needs.

They have 5 other DBs transferring out of Iowa State ranked higher than him on 247.
He seems like a good player. I just thought that was funny.

Jamonta Waller just committed to Arkansas. Man, I would love to know how much he got from them. Its absolutely fools gold. I don't think he has the measurables to compete at this level.
Really glad we passed again.

He's the 6th rated highest DB on Iowa state team and is still a top 100 player nationally?

As you and I have discussed here, the landing spots or no landing spots for these 34 players show our terrible failure in evaluation, development, a lack of recruiting budget, NIL funds, or a combination of all these issues. We must step up and do better ASAP, especially in the OL and DL this portal class.

Are we keeping Owens and Mayberry and James on the OL or processing them?

Half of those guys were signed just to have enough depth to practice last year. It was a necessity. They also missed on evals as well, but it's not as bad as it seems on that front.

We haven't lost anyone that moves the needle. We need to sign more kids like Johnson, Stewart, and hopefully Dyson. Those are guys that move the freaking needle for next year. Too many of our guys so far are just replacing one guy that didn't perform with another kid that didn't perform. Now, I'm ready for that Dyson graphic, because that kid is damn good an will instantly help.

Fact is we don?t know how much SEC talent we had because coaching sucked. That Oline looked like it had 5 different blocking assignments for every play more often to being on the same page.

If Work starts at Missouri and has a good year then that will answer questions about Loadholt. I wasn't big in the hire to begin with.
I'm not trying to get the thread off subject here. Just wasn't expecting any of our guys on the O Line to commit to and SEC schools. Especially one of the better programs.

Did we not want to keep Work? Thought he grew up a Bulldog fan and was one of our better OL.
