I am as frustrated as everyone else about not winning the game but this thread is about the future.
1: Early signing date is Dec. 18th. During this time we need to finish getting linebackers and wide receivers. We have to get some bigger WR's that can stretch the field and also some more athletic speed to go with Wandale. Without hitting these goals the team will continue to struggle. There is nothing more important, IMO, this off-season then this.
2: IMO, don't expect any staff changes prior to the NSD. There isn't enough time to replace coaches and also land recruits. There are only 2 visit weekends left before most recruits across the country put ink to paper.
3: We need to land at least 1 more DB.
4: We need someone that can kick the f'n ball into the endzone.
5: IMO, and I'm sure Frost has already been doing this, take a serious look at least 2 staff changes on D - OLB and DC - and start that process after Dec. 18th.
6: We need to get a lot more athletic on this roster so we have better athletes playing on special teams.
We had 4 very winnable games this year that went down to the end that should have been wons. To get over that hurdle these next 16 days are the most important time this program has had since Frost has been here so we can fix those holes and get better.
We have a good QB room. - no major need there.
RB: My god we have the worst depth in the conference, outside of Rutgers, at that spot right now. Yes we have 2 guys committed, but, IMO, we need more athletes here. We don't have the depth to overcome injuries and injuries will happen every year.
WR: Worst unit in the conference at the WR spot outside of Rutgers. These next 16 days are enourmously important for this unit. If we don't get this fixed it isn't going to matter who is the QB. We need size, gotta be able to spread the field and stretch it.
OL: We are going to get better there with better OL recruiting that has been coming in.
LB: Second worst unit on the team in terms of talent and depth. Like WR, we gotta fix this.
On Dec. 18th the question that needs to be answered is - did we get the needs at WR and LB so this team can be better?
