Agree. Everytime I start to lean towards one, another one steps up. After the UA performance, I am most excited about Foster, but the AA game is today, so good chance someone changes my mind again. Good problem to have though. Need to beef up the d line asap. You can only count on so many coverage sacks.

DL will be fine because there’s some real impact guys in next years class, Our D line with Hager, Roach, Omeniheu, Nelson, Giles, Graham will be solid next year. I’m actually really excited to see Graham next year. I think you load up on the big bodies in next years class. Plus Coburn coming in should be real nice, the dude could transform our D, he’s a Alabama type d linemen, mammonth that can give you penetration.

I remember coach strong really thought he was getting a steal and impact player in Andrew Fitzgerald, would be nice to see him step on the scene too.

I'm not going to play down losing White to OU cause' I obviously want him in this class, but are any of you guys slightly worried about him measuring in officially at only 5'11??  Don't typically see LB's under 6'1 or so.

Not worried at all because the tape is fantastic.

@Daniel Seahorn Any idea why the staff waited so long to offer him?

Arrogance if I’m being very honest.

Thanks. Damn shame really, especially if he ends up at okie.

If Mike is right, then yea, he's gone.

I pause, though, because Roach says differently. So I'll let this go and see how it plays out. But like Mike, I've heard an OU commitment could go down any time.

I don't think it's time to worry or panic. We're not depleted at LB. Next year, I see little drop off. The year after is your question. A lot can happen between now and then.

Bimage looks good and will improve. Shark is there. Dele can play. We grab an extra one next year or pick up a grad transfer or JUCO. Lots of ways to fill that but no reason to panic.

I was like others in thinking Overshown would end up at OLB. After watching him in the UA game, I've changed my mind. That kid is a missile with a bad attitude when reaching its destination. I was thrilled with what I saw in him and Foster. I was left wondering how Sterns was going to find PT in the secondary.

And Sterns just nabbed the Defensive POTG at the Army All American

Yea then sterns gets 2 big picks today in Army game and ya think... damnit we gonna be great lol

Dang it beat me to it

 

[Sirhornsalot]

Its exciting to know you're about to have arguably the best secondary in the nation.

 

[MikeV73]

Could be like the old days when we just put our best 4 secondary guys out there.  Nathan Vasher and Quinton Jammer started out as safeties I believe to get them on the field prior to switching to corner. 

 

[DBut82]

My bad! He was actually the Player of the Game...I sold him short lol

 

[okiehorn]

And was GREAT hearing the announcers bring it up several times during the game

Does Coutre Alexander like Arkansas because of its proximity?  Chad Morris still hasn't hired a DC yet.

We have lots of options remaining up front for DL gets:  Ojomo, Alexander, Carson, Ossai, V. Jackson and also a couple of Louisiana guys in Michael Williams and Devin Winters.

Unlike the ESPN UA AA game where the commentators only talked about the SEC commits/signees and Anoma all game.

 

[Mandowelds]

Was hard to see Eagles get open and not being able to make plays since the USC commit QB was just looking to throw it to his HS and now future college teammate St. Brown.
