Can someone take a shot at our starters for the opening game by position?
Anyone know if we have a depth chart?
Thanks

Quarterback. Sorry, Paddock was not good enough to push Plitt aside, if one of the young studs does not become the starter very early we will have a terrible year. Got to get one of the young guys the chance to strut their stuff.

I can do some of it.. I just talked with someone today about the secondary. Corners are Aj And Nic Jones, safety is Malcom Lee, Only spot left to decide is the other safety. It's going to come down to jordan Riley Scott and the transfer Amos. Person I spoke to today says he prefers Amos who he says hits like a missile. RED Potts going to round out the nickle
Was told Paddock looks good and will be all right
WRs are Jackson yo heinz.. The third spot up for grabs gotta wait on the transfers to see it shake out Magwood in play for reps
Rbs, It's steel, Barfield and Jones with an marcus package. Probably ends up being a 1,2 package of Steele and Barfield. Barfield could end up being the 2 that's actually the 1
Oline d line not sure yet
LBS COLL AND Martin other 2 spots still on play

I'll also add yet another player confirmed the victory lap theory. Exact words were.. "We thought it was going to be easy. Then when it was not it was too late. We quit as a team after NIU. We got slapped with some humble pie" he went to say I'm paraphrasing now. The coaches told us everyday we had to work harder we did not it's on us. We're hungry again we want tge third bowl and we need to win it
So at least 1 team captain is saying the right things and was blatantly honest about the debacle that was last year

We showed up strong against an extremely overrated Buffalo team and then beat a depleted SJSU team. I’m sure nobody was eager to acknowledge how lucky we were but to think that we were world beaters and 2021 would be easy just doesnt add up. |

I agree with you we were lucky that year and I think the staff probably knows that but to the players they did what they said they were going to do from pre season camp.

I would just add that we also had a depleted roster for that bowl game. |

So why did the coaching staff keep playing the same players who quit after the NIU game. Coaches know when players quit. There were many players on the sidelines that maybe would have loved to have played with great effort namely Paddock. I would rather have lost with young eager players rather than with seniors who had quit.

I would rather have lost with young eager players rather than with seniors who had quit. Loyalty. That's it. They sacrificed a season out of loyalty. Several guys, especially Plitt, should had some time on the bench reflecting on the poor performances they were putting out. Personally I'd have sat Plitt after the Wyoming game. He was dreadful and basically looked like his head wasn't in it. The staff didn't create any wake up calls. Many of us saw major red flags vs Western Illinois. We were flat, lacked energy and just didn't take the game to a really bad WIU team. We just went through the motions. We had opportunities to win the UT/Miami and NIU games and the veterans did not make plays. We had the NIU game won and...well, everyone saw what happened. We totally quit vs CMU and in the bowl game. Flat out quit. I'm hoping an influx of younger guys this coming season will at least lead to more inspired play. We might not win much but i want to at least see a team that's engaged and getting after it regardless. |

I also learned that there was a rule change where coaches can be on the field with their units over the summer now. So practice has actually started players are going in at 6am for weights then doing other activities then get an hour on field instruction. The whole team and staff can't be on the field together so for example tge secondary has the 10-11 window

While no coach will ever say it I do not think there are any ideas or thoughts of Winning the MAC this year. I think the goal and hope is getting to and winning a bowl game

I’d like to get to 7 wins but that seems a bit of a stretch so I’m holding out hope for 6 and a bowl bid.
