Sure, it's not 15 deep for those 2 spots the way you would like ... I'll say it the same way I said from the beginning, if a LB coach can't develop 4 players from this group of athletes into All BigXII caliber LBs (4 players being a complete 2-deep at the position) then he should absolutely GTFO because he's not the standard we should demand at Texas. Do you honestly disagree with that? You think this room has no talented players that can be developed by a capable LB coach - especially now that they are in a better scheme with a better DC (Kwiatkowski)? You think that if Chad Glasgow and Gary Patterson were given this group of players they couldn't develop 4 of them? How fast do you think Viedt and Heacock would trade their entire group for this group? You think Stanard and Klanderman wouldn't be able to develop a badass 2 deep of LBs from this group? I don't think there's a name on this list that can't be developed, at a minimum, into a solid backup/2nd team LB. That's absolute worst case, imho.

I’ve laid out the roster to you in this very thread, I don’t need your long winded post. I even took it to a presumptive 2023 season. It’s a new coaching staff so this year is the best year to roll the roster and rebuild the lack of depth we have. The way they’ve done it and appear to be doing it will offer immediate results with the 1 year guys I’ve also outlined in my breakdown and the guys with multiple years of eligibility.

He did play well as a rush DE and so if they want to add him there, I'd be more excited about his upside. LBX - I'd have to know who it was and decide if I thought he was worth losing 2 of the younger guys.

Just shut the fuck up if you can’t stay straight on being reasonable even vaguely, dude. It’s fine to say you have concerns about concussions.

May 11, 20214 yr From a bit different standpoint as I haven't watched any videos or claim to understand how these players will be used, I'd rank our moves simply based on names as above average to great. Departures - Ayodele Adeoye - too many vowels and the repetition is overplayed here Juwan Mitchell - this feels very much like some white writers name for the token black character in their sitcom Byron Vaughns - prob my favorite from the outgoing group, had a nice cadence. Arrivals - Ray Thorton - I mean, this feels like a name from some defensive player on the 85 bears defense. A bit of a throwback but just screams hard hitter to me Ovie Oghoufo - Plenty of vowels here but right off the bat you have a hell of a first name, Ovie Ovie Ovie is a built in chant Ben Davis - Of the incoming group, probably the weakest but very solid traditional name Devin Richardson - He just sounds fast. Vroom Vroom Palaie Gaoteote - I don't have any clue how to say this, but is feels like it belongs to a Roman Soldier Banks - No need for a first name, solid solid last name. LBX - I don't know who this is but it sounds like we will have a X-Men person on defense, can't hurt. Edited May 11, 20214 yr by MoJames

May 11, 20214 yr Author Roach non-update on Kaufman Spoiler — I did some checking with sources near Vanderbilt transfer Donovan Kaufman. As 247Sports reported last week, it's down to a race between Auburn and Texas and Kaufman himself said it's too close to call at the moment. In checking with sources on the Auburn side, the Tigers feel good about where things stand, but there's also some confidence in Austin. That reflects how close this race is at the moment, and so we wait to see what Kaufman's decision will end up being.
