    BlackSailsDawg good breakdown on CB/S commits. Could you do OL and DL when you have a chance?

    Paging c34….paging c34. This is the question I have for him. He’s pretty much a pessimist like me so would enjoy hearing his take on the big uglies that have been recruited.

    We have done pretty well on the OL on the inside. We need another OT that can play in my opinion.

    My biggest concern is the youth movement we went on. We have signed alot of young guys and yes- we have been pretty good with retention on our roster. But I want some grown ass men on the OL. We didnt sign that at all. We went developmental- altho we have seemed to upgrade overall talent level.

    Screams that Lebby feels safe to get 2027 which will make things very uncomfortable if we start 1-2. That could snowball to a 2-10 record. This group better gel early and starting off 3-0 would be huge for the confidence of young guys.

    A 2-10 record and the masses will be calling for his head. But maybe he will get lucky and they mature quickly. Thanks c34 for your review.

    We have upgraded the Secondary tremendously. We have done well on the interior OL and def gotten better on the DL- and yeah, as I said in a previous post- I dont think we would fire him at 5-7 next year unless we get a booster push writing checks

    I'm not betting on W' or L's- but next season should be a better football team

    The fact that all opponents are also bolstering and improving at the same time must be considered

    Which is why we are in a great position. Look at whatbwe accomplished with that OL and that defense. Its astonishing.

    For us, we had way more room to grow than say TX. So if we are remotely close this year in talent... I ain't scared. Let's put it on the field and grind.

    And some won’t be able to pull in the talent they had in 2025 and end up worse
