Re: Portal time 25-26

Well, Loggains has been saying they want Smart, Tough, and Competitive. Guess JJ isn't that last one and the second is questionable after seeing him turtle up short of a first down on a run

Re: Portal time 25-26

The BOT unlists their meeting videos on YouTube pretty quickly, which might be a state law violation. If you have the link, it's a 5-hour long video of several meetings. Thus, I made a video of just Dowell's speech to them. This was on Friday, Dec. 5, two days before the Birmingham Bowl invite. htt...

Re: Portal time 25-26

For those out of the loop, Lanorris sellers is in Boone skiing. Dowell also posted a picture skiing in Boone today. Might be a coincidence. Might not Sellers received $1.8M in NIL last year, stop. I know this is a stretch, but maybe...just MAYBE Sellers realizes that DLo was a huge part of his succ...

Re: ODU Discussion

Hopefully this coming bye week will help, but I can't imagine things drastically improve on D when you've had to kick 3 DL off the team by the week of the 8th game. Swann should get the nod next game. Kohl lost me on that soft slide coming up short for a first. If you're 6'7" you bet e learn how to ...

Re: Oreg St at 3:30pm - Discussion

I think we got tooled a few times in PI calls We did. Worst officiating I've seen at KBS. The last PI at the end that extended OrSts drives was completely bogus...the WR fell over before the ball was even close and our DB didn't touch him. They need to fire every official that was in Boone today an...

What is the purpose of a spring game?
In this instance, a chance for the new staff to drive fan interest and excitement early on. Come out and see all the new new. New schemes, players, etc. get fans talking during the offseason

Re: Roster/Staff Updates

We will be running more 4-2-5 so the need is bigger for an DT and DE coach vs an ILB and OLB coach. We have more linebackers than any other defensive position (according to the current roster), so either there will be conversions, defections or some combo of it all. I imagine the former “dog” OLB w...

Running a 4 man front with a converted LB as the 4th man would be a disaster IMO.
DJ did qualify the 4 man front with bring multiple. So I imagine he’ll do whatever fits the personnel best, but gear future recruiting towards a 4 man front

Re: DJ Smith DC

BGP asked DJ on their pod what defense we’re gonna run and he said 4 man front multiple. Wouldn’t be surprised if he did something similar to what he played in under Wiley
