    Or... the teams we played towards the end of the year were much better than the ones we played early in the season? Maybe he was hurt too.

    I still think he's going to be much better this coming season than he was this past year... one more year experience and all.

    w/e the reason was, his tackling didn’t improve as the season went on. Hopefully he builds on the overall season he had. I’m sure he will

    The recruit that didn’t come due to no DL coach finally may drive the point home. Losing games due to poor pre prep and poor in game coaching. Looks like recruiting taking a hit now because we were not prepared. Both Slackman and Crowder were huge possible additions.

    No, you don’t. Unless certain criteria has been met. Tarquin made his bed. We’ll see how the staff reacts.

    We might not get a guy that's only had a visit to Kansas State?

    The staff already offered. So I guess they agree. Great move by our staff to go get a quality tackle.

    Haha

    I think this actually is a gift. Unless Crenshaw Dickson commits which is probably not likely, we aren’t getting a tackle of Mike’s caliber. Started 28 games and appeared in 42. That’s experience you can’t find.

    If you took our returners on the online and add Tarquin you would have over 100 starts combined.

    It appears the coaching staff feels the same way.
