kgo1: I too have imagined the combination of both of the Day brothers at linebacker at the same time. Again, it is possible Syngyn did not want to play on the defense, but I would like to have seen the trial of that combination. I also understand that Drummond may have been overrated, but I still would like to see him at the B-Back position, especially at the beginning of his College Career. I probably would have used him there for the first year, to see how he progressed, since he did well there in High School. I also understand that his physical makeup might have made him look better as a back in high school, but does not insure the same results on the College level.
Since, Tech attempts few passes, I would have overlooked Laskey's blocking on pass plays because he is such an agressivc runner from the B-Back position. Since PJ often rotates Sims and Laskey, I doubt if the opposition would notice a pass play by the absence of Laskey in the game.
