Defensive Line DLine DL recruiting thread

What does Oklahoma pay these days?

 

Pretty much the "Top-Guy" on UF's defensive line board, is he not Bobby?

 

Black Gold, Texas "T" ............ don't they just assign a "pumper" to each new cruit?

 

Define pumper

 

Someone get this fact over to Leblanc - Since 2005, Oklahoma has had 2 defensive players drafted in the 1st round. In that same time, Florida has had 14.

 

Moved his day back up after visiting PSU. Wasn’t he on the same visit as Webb and Parker?

 

Oil Well

 

How many did Brent Venables have at Clemson because that is who is there now.

 

He was the DC at Oklahoma for 7 of those years I mentioned. They had 1.

 

Then he had about 8 over the next roughly 7 years at Clemson.

 

That's kind of the point. Why did Venables all of a sudden become an elite DC and developer at Clemson?

Oklahoma has consistently proven to be a bad school for defensive players over the last almost 20 years. Partially because:

1. The offensive style and pace played in the Big 12 makes most of their defenses look bad.
2. The lack of overall defensive talent and depth. If your defensive line doesn't get pressure on the QB, your secondary is gonna get torched. If your linebackers aren't filling gaps properly, it'll look like your entire front 7 is soft. Etc. Etc.

 

I have no doubt none of these players remember him being run out of Norman or even knew he was there previously. He won’t be telling them about the time they gave up 70 to WVU. All they know is that he has been a top 5 DC for the last 7-8 years and that Clemson put DL in the consistently. We don’t exactly have a huge selling point right now. Hey do you remember Taven Bryan yeah that was 2 coaching staffs ago (2018).

 

Yea idk about prefer him. But with a little more coaching i don’t see why he couldn’t be just as good

 

Why did Venables get fired from OU?

 

Shovel pass to Hernandez?

 

Was he the DC then?

 

Yep

 

They gave up 40+ points in losses to OSU, TTU, and Baylor.
