MangoZip Posted December 16, 2024 Report Share Posted December 16, 2024 26 minutes ago, catdaddyp said: Agreed, we need some help at OT. Morris and JBD have the athletic ability to play OT. Gould is an OT as well, but he’ll need a year of development. I think we are going to try the JUCO signee King at tackle. Outside of those guys, it’s really just Shor at LT and Mann at RT. That’s not a good scenario if you’re Ben Finley. Shor has been very shaky and Mann hasn’t seen a snap (I don’t think) in two years - I assume there’s a reason for that.

Do you think King has the ability to play at tackle? I’ve been intrigued with Mann. Seems like he was on cusp of P4 offers. Great size at 6’7”. Hoping he has developed over past 2 years.

catdaddyp Posted December 17, 2024 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2024 CB Joey Hunter in the portal. Not a surprise here. He walked on senior day and was seemingly limited the majority of games. Was eventually surpassed on the depth chart by Reed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to him. Clears the way for Reed, White, and DeWalt…..assuming they don’t hit the road as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BG is a more successful program historically but how it this going to be much different of an experience vs playing at Akron? Maybe he thought he would get better offers and had to settle here? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that said, I recall somebody stating BG has NIL set up for football and we..well don’t. We aren’t going to even keep up with other conference members unless we find a way to step it up from a financial perspective. Can’t wait to kick his ass the next two years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be the offer situation. I may be mistaken, but I thought BG had a small NIL collective? Could have played a role into it. Or they pitched him on development like they did with Karl Brooks? Either way, I hate having to face him on a yearly basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Kangaroo Posted December 22, 2024 Report Share Posted December 22, 2024 UMass is obviously paying their coaches more than the Zips. It would be sporting of them to at least forfeit their training table to make things fair. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but money is the answer. FAU has two collectives. They can pay a kicker to come there. We can’t pay anyone. Reardon to Northwestern.
