Fall Camp
Some well known intel to kick it off. Speight will start fall camp as QB1. His spot to lose. RB order will be Evans, Higdon, Isaac. Honestly, Higdon is much closer to RB1 than expected. He may take it away altogether with a strong camp. 5 Fr. in the two deep. Two OL getting a huge opportunity and WR is pretty obvious. 4 plus WR sets are in the works.
But are you full Torquemada'd? That's more painful, what with the racks and nut-stretchers and stuff...
Who's going to throw to them though?
fully expect Vert to start, Harbaugh even mentioned him in B1G media days this week.
other outside spot will be more of a competition, I'm expecting Washington/Long to lock down playing time. I think one of the freshmen will have the opportunity to play also, I'm really hoping Ambry Thomas gains some strength - he'd be a huge athletic upgrade to B. Watson from day 1.
But has there been any update on the Calloway situation? I'd imagine there'd normally be a suspension if UF were playing a tomato can, at least for a half.
confident in Hill, I think he has shown what he can do and he'll be a baller. Long worries me so much, no news on him, not on the field at all, no Italy trip.....blaaaaaaa not good
That number of freshmen in the current 2-deep (five) is probabluy going to at least double.
Yeah I figure at least 3 DL, 2 OL, 3 if not all 4 WRs, and 1 possibly 2 LBs
Given the earlier hype, I wonder if Mason doesn't end up beating out Poggi for the #2 FB too
I'm guessing he's referring to just the offense.
I think Martin could be one. May be hard to hold him off in the slot. He is also a sure handed punt return option.
There are too many good receiving options to not go 4 WR.
whole lot of potential, but not a lot of career PRs amongst the group
My own personal opinion is that that isn't going to matter. I think there will be so many receiving options between TE, WR, H-back/Fullback that one guy will not have to carry the load.
but they'll be fielding 20 punts a game so they'll get experinced FAST.
Also. MOAR PLEASE!
Who are the two Freshman OL? Ruiz and Stueber, right? Or is another name popping up?
I've always been higher on Higdon than his playing time. Is he closer to making it a thunder/lightening RB1/RB1a type deal? Or are you saying he is closer to passing Evans and getting DeVeon-Smith-type usage?
What about defense?! Aren't there going to be roughly 11 more True Freshman on the 2 deep on that side alone!?
Bringing up DeVeon Smith is a good point. Higdon is much stronger than Evans. Smith was the guy because his pass protection picked up so many deficiencies that the OLine had. If Higdon can block well on top of his athleticism watch out.
Ruiz and Filiaga from what I understand.
Then DPJ, Black and Martin.
That said, I think that number is almost doubled by the time UF rolls around. Especially if you count Nordin.
But JKP, Solomon, Vilijan, Ross or Anthony, maybe a CB...we'll have a number of guys in the mix.
Meh. First to second year bounce can be positive. I'M not worried about the kids until they start playing in Madison and State College.
It'd be more if including redshirt frosh as well (Vastardis/Spanellis, McKeon, Peters??)
and giving us a few tidbits. Think it will be an interesting camp with some good position battles Speight as the incumbent should be his job to lose, but would not be shocked if he is supplanted. Let's hope any Freshman in the two deep are ready to contribute.
"Buy", not so much.
Ahhh MORE please! Is it possible to get weekly fall camp updates UM Big 11?
Ahhh MORE please! Is it possible to get weekly daily fall camp updates UM Big 11?
Surely it's time for an alias, like umehbigeheleveneh. I could get you an avatar with the helmet pointing the other direction. Surely you could still contribute and nobody at Rivals would know...I wouldn't tell...our little secret.
Feel free to give me that weekly camp info umbig 11 and ill post it on the board, win win!
Stop bye all the time with info, we won't tell anyone......
The only thing I don't like about football season is umbig11 going into submarine mode.
Don't worry, Yost will take over for him.
