[B.B. Hemingway]

We beat them the last time we played.

He means for recruits.

:lol:

That's good to see right after losing an ILB commit.

 

[Ziebol]

He just became that more important. He needs to be N or we could be in for a terrible class at ILB.

Actually think his film is more impressive than Groce’s

I think the staff agrees. He's been a priority for the staff since the beginning. Him and Reed were probably the top two, realistically chances that is. 

That being said we need two ILB's this class.

It’s not even close. He’s fits the profile of a Big 10 middle linebacker a million times more than Groce.

Definitely has always been the name at LB that's stuck out to me. Really feels like he's been the top 1-2 guys at that position for the staff. Groce felt a bit out of no where for me.

I think they’re recruiting guys that have the flexibility to play inside and out as well. Groce was a little more one dimensional in that sense.

We need OLB’s that can pass rush and drop into coverage. Right now it seems like we’ve been transitioning a lot of HS DE’s who have probably only ever been asked to spy or read a screen pass.

Some teams in a 3-4 recruit natural LBs out of HS and some recruit weakside DEs....the way we use our OLBs I don't udnerstand why we go the DE route...

Because our strong-side OLB is playing DE responsibilities

Like chasing after WRs down the field?

That's the other OLB spot.

A. Davis and Tannor are rarely asked to cover receivers & TEs. They're basically a 4th DL
