Hedley Lamarr Posted January 13, 2013 Author Share Posted January 13, 2013 With the loss of Samuelson it is even more urgent in terms of getting some bodies in here. Chongo and Finnin would be great to help even out the classes. However we still need to snag a couple HS kids to help even out the numbers. Quote Link to comment
EZ-E Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 If we can get two of the four remaining targets I will be happy. Quote Link to comment
macroboy Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Would we take all 4? Maybe I'm wrong but I too, feel like we need bodies. Quote Link to comment
macroboy Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 As I look at this list I have some questions. What is up with Reeves and Sterup? Why is Rodriquez so lost out there? This looks to me like we should have a better line than we do. Quote Link to comment

This looks to me like we should have a better line than we do. You typically hit or miss on half of your class. Reeves and Sterup will play this upcoming season. Rodriguez has potential however he seems to be out of shape and relies more on ability not technique. I may be wrong but that is what it looks like to me anyways. Quote Link to comment

I'm not going to complain about whoever we get but I'm not convinced we need that much immediate help (JUCO). Our line seems to be improving - slowly but surely - and I think I'd rather have more guys go through the system that a couple who will only be here a couple years and may-or-may-not work out at that.

This looks to me like we should have a better line than we do. I know Reeves hadn't been coming along as quickly as the staff thought he would. Sterup might just have been behind some upper-classmen. I really don't know why ARod keeps getting out there. I really haven't seen him play a good quarter - let alone an entire game - at either spot. Maybe he looks better in practice (against our DLine ) but I continue to be confused by the playing time he gets. Quote Link to comment

dylan Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 He's out there because no one else is better yet. I agree that he hasn't looked very good though. He's alright at run blocking, but just can't match up against a decent pass rusher. He wasn't very good at guard either. I expect he'll continue to rotate in for sirles next year, but it would be nice to see sterup or price step up. Both seem to have a lot of potential. Rodriguez is a good example of why OL is the hardest position to forecast in recruiting and why it's so important to keep a lot of players in the pipeline to account for the inevitable misses. It's also the hardest position to fix quickly as it typically takes a few years for players to be ready physically and mentally to contribute. Last year's undersized class aside, we've done a good job of restocking the roster with OL. We need to finish out this class with a few more to continue our progress there. Quote Link to comment
zeWilbur Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 A-Rod plays pretty well when he can rotate with other bodies. When Sirles got dinged up in the bowl game the subbing became less frequent. They showed a close-up of A-Rod and you could see he was gassed. The next play, false start. Then getting beat around the edge and holding to try and save Martinez from going home in an ambulance. He just doesn't seem conditioned to be able to go 8-10 plays in a drive and remain effective. A little training table adjustment and he becomes much more consistent IMHO. Quote Link to comment

Well, we certainly missed with Moore and Klatcho. Let's hope Reeves and Sterup are hits. . . Are we out of it with Cochran? Quote Link to comment
