Yes, I know that thereafter EJ Williams got injured and passed on the Clemson depth chart, but it is more than safe to say that is a massive upgrade. Not much more to be said than the bold. I had no idea he did that. Insanely impressive. Quote
cthomas Posted January 17, 2023 Posted January 17, 2023 I like what we are doing with the portal. Trying to compete with the top programs for high school kids is never going to work out in sufficient numbers for us to be competitive. Our best bet is getting good players looking for a fresh start.

Alford Bailey Posted January 17, 2023 Posted January 17, 2023 We haven’t exactly brought in second or third string guys from better programs who’ve killed it here. Maybe Williams changes that. I’ll believe it when I see it. He had success with Trevor Lawrence throwing to him behind 5 offensive lineman who were drafted in the NFL too. CSP 1 Quote

That's completely fair to say. The front 5 has been atrocious that might ultimately be the nail in the coffin for CTA's job. His stubbornness to keep Hiller on staff not only caused the current situation IUFB is in but also (I could be wrong) from what I understand chemistry problems (coaches leaving) among the coaching staff. Folks on here have already pointed out that when Hiller was let go the front 5 started to improve. It really is the make or break component of the team this coming year. Personally I have a different view or angle with IUFB. It is what it is and my expectations of them isn't really a high bar. I'm happy if they beat that other B1G team in the state just a few miles north of Bloomington. I'm ecstatic if they end up .500. And anything else (more wins than losses) I'm to the moon.

Hovadipo Posted January 18, 2023 Author Posted January 18, 2023 Director of Recruiting Lee Wilbanks left for Mississippi State. Sounds like Auburn's Director of Player Personnel Steven Ruzic is in line to fill his place. MemphisHoosier and upperarlington 2 Quote

MemphisHoosier Posted January 22, 2023 Posted January 22, 2023 From CTA's media availability this morning (1/22), I believe there are four- five open scholarships (if the four current portal players don't return) at this point so 1-2x DL, 1x DB, 1x WR, and 1x TE would put the squad at 85 heading into Spring Practice.

It also speaks to medical advancement and our perception of it that even 15 yrs ago I would have wondered how long he’d be out and if he’d get 100% back to now when it never occurred to me that a kid blowing out an ACL in October wouldn’t be ready for game 1.
