Spring Preview: Linebackers

[stinger 1957]

Someone mentioned RS one of CPJ players, I would be surprised if CGC RS any CPJ players going fwd. he needs all those spots for recruiting imo.

Maybe one of the freshman will ball out and take over a LB spot this season

We need that

 

[UgaBlows]

I like Curry, his toughness and leadership but we need someone to take over his spot

 

[alagold]

Anyone else think Juanyeh Thomas should move to LB?

well,Charlie Thomas is moving to S--what about that?

I like the idea of Juanyeh @ LB. He has the pop

I think Tariq would be a much better fit. He is the one usually in the box when we play 1 safety high. He can lay the lumber, but struggles at times in pass coverage.

We have too many safeties who are like 6’3 210-220. Somebody needs to bulk up and play LB. I thought that person was Charlie Thomas. Not sure why he’s moving back to DB

He may not have been capable of bulking up. It’s fun to look at the roster, look at heights, and add 20 pounds to a guy, but sometimes it’s not possible. If he’s a junior and he still can’t get there, he may not have the frame or genetics to do so. Or he may not be able to do so and keep his speed and fluidity.

I just think JaQuon Henderson should’ve been an OLB in this scheme instead of a DE. We have plenty of quality DE in front of him. Clayton, Owens, Dominick, Dawson, C Bennett will all play over him. Imo if anyone makes the move to OLB it should be Henderson. I wouldn’t mind Kaleb Oliver going there either, and Jaylon King or The Notre Dame transfer playing his spot.

I would love to see Tariq put the weight on and become our skull crushed at Mike, but I don't know that he can add that much bulk and keep the speed we would want.

Will be interesting to see what the staff does this season to get us some more bulk there.

Interesting, looks like Jerry is back to wearing #15. I also question how much BJS will get the ball in a very crowded backfield.

Apparently Kaleb Oliver and Tariq are working in at the Will LB spot in our prowler package (3rd and long)

Where have I heard that before...

I think everyone is back to double digit numbers this spring. If you wanna single digit, you have to earn it every year apparently.

eh kinda. He is in sam S hybrid. I don’t believe we will ever be seeing him 15 yards deep at snap but shoot maybe i am wrong
