Rising Redshirt Freshman

[TheDoggPound]

I want to keep Marder in a reserve role - our biggest ? is safety. May the best player win between Terry, Watkins, McAllister and Garland.

I'm curious to see how we go about utilizing Lee, Holman, Parker and Campbell. With Myers, Bloom and Williams as the top 3 only 1 of them will likely stick at TE. I think we should move Parker back to his natural position of DE, groom Lee for OT and then I'm not sure between Holman and Campbell which one should move where.

I absolutely would love to see Lee on the O Line. His athleticism would be a plus, but would likely take another year or 2 to bulk up.

I think that the coaching staff should consider redshirting 1-2 of the guys who played as true freshman. I would definitely like to see Lee take this year off and come back as a RS SO fighting for playing time at tackle after the departures of Knappe and Levy.

I think this kid will/should strive in this role for us along with special teams (gunner)...

Sheriffs is very limited in the vertical game. It is what it is - additionally he's a one receiver a play guy or he runs. Quite frankly, not what I look for in a QB but Diaco likes that style.

Have we heard anything on Frank Battle? I know we beat out Syracuse for him and he's 6'5". I haven't seen anything in the media about him, though.

him and mayala(?) were used pretty frequently this year, I would imagine their roles will only expand from last year.

Beals, Mayala, and McLean were the only true frosh who saw time. I was puzzled that Battle couldn't beat them out given (as JMick said) his reputation out of HS and his size. But we shall see how it shakes out. I have a feeling that HCBD really likes Mayala, given how many targets he seemed to be getting compared to Beals and McLean during the second half of the season.

i agree, i was excited to see beals get on the field but mayala got a lot more looks as the year went on

They must love Mayala because I thought Beals looked great to start the year and about half way through Mayala took his spot.

Battle was a redshirt...

Roster management... I believe he was a planned redshirt w/ the number of WR on roster. This in theory would allow them to RS another WR who saw time last year of needed. I've heard/seen nothing negative.

ah yes, I meant beals

Maybe you were also referring to the other 6'5 true frosh WR Aaron McLean. He got some burn.

Beals, i think, just needs to get a little stronger. He's got solid hands, could be great if he puts the work in.just needs to get stronger first.

You gotta believe Matala might've shown the best all around ability out of the true frosh this past season, which is why he hot a lot of playing time as the season went on. His ability to block mainly. He certainly didnt catchbthd ball better than Beals.
