[QUOTE="strong90, post: 171115, member: 2326"] Great to see the Fr showing up at the skill positions on O. It's an indication of the talent that we're getting in the door and bodes well for the future of our offense. However, the future can wait; this is the year. Many have said 2017, but the stars are aligned for us now. A strong & experienced OL, national media attention, nationwide fan support, and a schedule that would test any team. Have you noticed that football fans across the country, including SEC folks (outside of the ignorant sidewalk hydrant pissers), respect us...even like us?! We have a reputation for old-school smash-mouth football, wide receiver U, SEC spoiler, and [U]student[/U] athletes who take calculus. We are "in the discussion" so to speak, and I think a few big wins this year puts us on the radar for several years to come. It's great to be a Yellow Jacket and our time is now. My only reservation is our D...championships simply aren't won without a respected, if not dominant, Defense. While it's exciting to see some new names on the depth chart, let's not forget where we came from. My exuberance is dampened by the fact that, with few exceptions, we are seeing the same Hancocks on the field that we've seen before. I don't say that to criticize any individual on our team, but we simply weren't as good as we should be. This year experience helps, and I'm confident that JHD is a game-changer, but how much difference can one player make on a team that struggled (cough, cough) so much last year? I understand the[I] implications [/I]of his impact with regard to the pass rush, double-teams, freeing up LBs, and time allowed the DBs to maintain coverage...but still....it's just one dude. Maybe his dominance will allow us to play wildly aggressive (which I like) and that changes everything. Hope so... but I'm merely cautiously optimistic. It's been said that the biggest indicators of success in college football is the level of experience of the OL and/or the effectiveness of the D. We have one...can we have both? Hope so, but the time is now. [/QUOTE]
