Off topic, but if he is declaring, does he play in the bowl game? If not, who is the starter? Mailman? Has Mathis been cleared?
I agree too big of risk for him to return and not improve. Jake looks good when he makes quick decisions and quick throws, but doesn’t when the pocket breaks down or plays are extended. Strangest thing his aversion to throwing to the middle of the field.
Our pass pro is going to differ next year. I’m not sure folks “truly” appreciate what we had at the tackle positions. The impact this has on a QB like Fromm is magnified to such a degree it will be crippling. There’s more that could go wrong than right, in returning.
Just to frame this up (and I’ll take the off topic here), we might lose 3 games next year, and I’d rather get jump started on the next chapter and take the lumps in one year.
All in all, there’s more questions than answers for our team next year on offense. If the upside of Fromm returning was greater than the grade he received, I’d be for the return. That said, I don’t think he has the skill set to immediately elevate everyone around him so if we’re going to likely have two reg season losses anyway, I’d rather do that getting some other guys experienced to see what we have.
I would if I were him. I think that’s also why Swift will play and still declare. LSU tape is not the final tape to leave for scouts imo.
Bennett would start if not.
That tweet won’t age well. By the end of this cycle it’ll read more like him warning fans that “more (dawgs are) coming” to beat the Vols
Still puzzled by middle of field issues, but can anyone find gif of his interception on throw up middle that bounced offdefenders helmet in 2017 National championship game. Great blocking but bad luck. Bad omen or something spooked him.
@SoFL_Dawg is right next year looks to be a transitional year experience wise for our dawgs. We all know how important experience is in the SEC i.e 2017 season. That being said we should still win the East but idk if we can win the SEC based on our experience factor. I think bama does it next year fwiw. We lose a lot on the line offensively and it looks like we are losing our safeties as well. If we go 10-2 with a sec championship birth I’ll be happy cause we will have a lot of talent and experience in the 2021 season to seriously win the natty. But hey maybe next year will be like 2017 cause I thought before that season it would be a success just winning the East after going 8-5 the year before and look what happened.
for Those not liking our chances next year due to inexperience on the offensive side of the ball, do y’all really think we can be worse than this year?
I think we only got into the 30s twice in league play ( ut and vandy).
our defense will be better. The backend will be fine although losing reed will hurt. By the end of the year, we will have an experienced and talented group. Maybe I am just being a homer, but I think we have as good of chance as anyone
Unequivocally yes. You’re looking at the score board. Start subtracting those expected to leave and compare the personnel.
New OL, new safety combo, new QB, new WRs, unproven RBs, lesser TE room. It’s right there in front of you.
Respectfully, if we get Darnell then the Te room is not lesser. It may take him some time to learn playbook, but he will be better than the production we had this year, especially in red zone
I get your point and agree with you on personnel. That said, either our players, coaches or a combination of the two underperformed this year ( most likely imo).
some new blood may be just what we need to light up the scoreboard
2 more CBs for Zach Evans and Darnell Washington
Respectfully we need to wait and see who else declares and the last few are in January (2nd/4th) and NSD. If Ben and Solomon both come back we will be fine on the OL and I am hopeful that what we lose at tackle we gain in scheme and quicker release by the QB. The defense will be unreal if we don't suffer from early entry into the draft.
Confident but concerned sums up my feelings for 2020
By everyone’s fav Barton Simmons
I’m not ready to concede the East just yet. We have plenty of talent coming back, especially on the defensive side of the ball and have been stacking talent for the last few classes. The talent is still better than anyone else and our schedule hopefully doesn’t have 5 teams coming off of a bye week again.
