Sucks about Waller, he lacks tenacity as well as wr instincts. If he had them, he'd be a boss.
Every year it seems for past ten years or so I would look at WR folks in warm ups and wonder how in the world could we not get them the ball.We have great size and most can run but somebodoy needs to get them the ball.We are solid here but again.........got to get them the ball.
Yes, but do they have SEC speed????:
Yep, has all the physical tools but just doesn't have "it."
We were not what I consider good this year but gosh,we were better than last year.I figured folks would line up and ram the ball down our throat but wtih exception of a few good uns we did okay vs the run..until we get pass rushers we will always have to play nickel and this hurts us since as you say I wonder if it helped out any this year anyway.
Well didnt know we were that good and am surprised but we still shouldnt have gone 7-6 with our defense in my opinion.
I am sorry Iron, I don't mean to offend. I was just trying to be creative about explaining how I felt a race between Autry and Campbell (from 13 years ago) would have gone. However, let me just say that I disagree with your characterization of their speed. Hopefully this time I deliver the message more tactfully. I caution you about attaching too much meaning to the posted 40 times of those two young men. Those things can vary wildly based on who is doing the timing and the methods used. 4.3 speed, when timed accurately, is CJ Spiller type speed. When you watch those type players on the field competing against the rest of college football, 4.3 speed is palpable. It stands out like a sore thumb. Every single defender will be aware of where they are at any time and adjust their angles and cushions etc to keep them contained. Obviously, I have never timed either of these guys myself, but having been involved with that kind of thing for years, I have an opinion about where I think their times would end up. FWIW, maybe very little in the eyes of many and that is fine, I see Autry as around a 4.6 guy and Summers more like 4.5. Those times are plenty good enough to be a WR, especially in our offense. They are not slow, but opposing DCs won't be scheming around their speed either. For that matter, I don't think Waller or Smelter are really any faster either, but they did manage to get behind the defense this year, which reinforces your point.
