[QUOTE="slugboy, post: 951462, member: 282"] Reasons for pessimism on D: lost 2 starting LBs, both of whom were highly regarded (and Thomas was a beast). Lost a great EDGE in White to the NFL and a DT to the portal. Air raid teams tend to be bad on defense, and don’t practice tackling as much as they should Reasons for optimism on D: we added a strong LB coach and brought back a strong DL coach. We have a star at Safety. We have talent at DB. We have young players and good transfers at LB. We have a year of organized practice together, and tackling makes a defense better. I lean a bit towards optimism—we lost some really good players, but I’m looking forward to seeing what this coaching staff can do without Collins “helping”. I see room to be better on defense than last year. Reasons for pessimism on ST: we were awful last year Reasons for optimism on ST: coach has a solid track record I think Special Teams will at least become average, if not better Reasons for pessimism on O: lost our most productive receiver. Lost a really good RB. Lost a special athlete at QB. Our blocking was terrible last year. Our QB ratings were towards the bottom of the ACC last year. Our TEs have terrible numbers. Our line stats are bottom of the conference. Reasons for optimism on O: we’re gonna air it out. We have a receivers coach who has improved receiver stats wherever they were. We have a good RB room. We have at least two promising QBs and a good QB coach. We have an OL coach at HC, and I believe he will focus on improving the line. We were filling in coaches at RB and OC last year. We got better when Weinke called plays, even though we had a lot of injuries. Key didn’t pull a top 25 recruiting class last year (it was a weak class, sorry), but did very well with transfers. He brought in coaches to fix each of our weak points. The one question mark I have is Geep Wade—that’s our weakest point, and he lacks P5 experience. He has experience at Ga Southern and App State, which hints at how we’ll play. Overall, I’m optimistic about the offense. OL and TE are big questions to me, but the rest looks good. [/QUOTE]
