GMoose Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 SJB according to my sources. I really hate the term "turned the corner", but it sounds like it could be the case for him. Definitely good to hear with the lack of receiver depth. Quote Link to comment
ADS Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 The names I have heard alot are Kenny Bell, Jason Ankrah, and Will Compton. Quote Link to comment
GMoose Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 I've also heard Eric Martin is getting a good shared of reps with the ones. It will no doubt be interesting to see his role next year. Quote Link to comment

girlknowsfootball Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Names I've Heard So Far: Stanley Jean Baptiste Jamal Turner Kenny Bell Eric Martin Jake Cotton Kevin Williams Thad Randle Taylor Martinez Brion Carnes Yoshi Hardrick Andrew Green Dijon Washington amongst guys from last year who include to impress: Alfonzo Dennard Ciante Evans Lavonte David Will Compton Sean Fisher Josh Williams Mike Caputo Jeremiah Sirles (leadership, he's injured) Rex Burkhead Brandon Kinnie Kyler Reed Ben Cotton Right now the 2 weakest positions are RB and LB in terms of depth without drop off. RB will be taken care of in the fall when our 5-7 new guys show up. LB will be a little better but we may still lack a solid 2 deep when we're in our 3 backer set. So far the backers are Fisher, Compton, David... 2's include roach, stoddard, may... it's looking like Santos has a good chance to play early along with Pirman if they put him at LB initially.

The Dude Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 The offense is still one giant question mark. We can talk about the young talent all we want, but until they trot out onto the field and prove themselves, it's one gigantic question mark. Playing well in spring practices is good and all, but let's see them do it at Camp Randall. Quote Link to comment

I feel a heck of a lot better about the depth at LB then RB. Relying on true frosh, who yes are very talented, but no we have no clue about how quickly they pick up the offense, can pick up/recognize a blizt, or match expectations, doesn't qualify as a "depth filler" for me. Remember, May has started and played a lot before his injuries. Stoddard has played and has been raved about in the past by Carl and Ekler, not only for his play but also his intelligence(including high football IQ). Roach was praised last year by coaches as well. OH and there is another guy on the roster that has played, AND even STARTED for NU. Alonzo Whaley will play a bunch this year. The biggest thing that held him back is the nickel and dime packages. He should excel in the 4-3 a more natural defense for him. Pirman will redshirt, Santos has a chance to play but redshirts unless injury ahead of him. LB, in very good shape. RB, TONS of questions that won't be answered until the fall. Quote Link to comment
