JHD cleared to play !!!

With all that happened with him turning ineligible, I bet his parents are very proud parents to see they raised a kid right and he did what he had to do on his own.

Wonderful news!

Slightly OT but I think JHD symbolizes why such a tone of optimism inhabits this program right now. When a well-coached Flexbone team has a fine QB, offense is never "the problem" overall. (Quick, name three or four big-time studs who played with Ricky Dobbs while he set all those offensive records at Navy.) Did the great Wishbone/Flexbone-ish dynasties of the past suffer from LBs and DBs having a lack of practice experience vs. great passing teams? You betcha. What was their ultimate success based on? Great DL play. D-linemen don't share the disadvantage, in fact practicing against great run blockers and running QBs turns the weighted-bat principle to their advantage. They can grow into block-shedding monsters.

If there's one ingredient that an actual strong, consistent GT defense under CPJ needs to thrive, it's developing next-level talent on the DL like Hunt-Days and Gotsis.

Gold and White equal Hunt for better Days.

With Jabari back, how will the depth chart look for DE,DE,NT, and DT? Who do you think will be the starters?

Hunt-Days, Gotsis, Rook-Chungong and Freeman. Though you might see Gamble at SDE at times.

Would they ever list Gamble on the 2-deep as backup at 2 different positions? Because I'm guessing that's likely the reality once things go live. I would think he's the first man on the field at either DT and SDE once subbing starts.

@DrJacket
I'm pretty sure they have done that before for players on the Oline....maybe linebacker also.

You are so right. @MrsDrJacket still had the removable roster sheet from last year's game program. It's right between our chairs here. I just glanced, and there are multiple players on the 2-deep listed at more than one position.

Jabari was already on the 2-deep coming out of Spring. He doesn't move up until he beats Gamble out on the field.

I think it will be hard to keep gamble off the field.

I'm pretty sure he wasn't joking though
