Ruckert betting on himself to break out next year could be epic. Good stuff — hopefully Stroud is a baller. 1 Quote

But I freely admit I haven't watched him enough to have a legit take on his accuracy. What do you think of Mac Jones? Do you think that he has enough arm for the NFL. This question is also meant for @YoloinOhio, @Willyville Guy and anyone else. Edited January 13, 2021 by Bill from NYC Quote

This question is also meant for @YoloinOhio, @Willyville Guy and anyone else. I'm not the right guy to be answering this because I've only watched him play 2-3 times, but he looks to me to be the best QB prospect out of Alabama that I've seen in forever. I wasn't high on either Tua or especially Hurts as NFL players but Jones might be different. On the other hand, it's really hard to tell just how good he is when he's standing behind that OLine, with that RB next to him and throwing to what might be the greatest collegiate WR corps that I've ever seen in my life. 🤷♂️ 1 Quote

This question is also meant for @YoloinOhio, @Willyville Guy and anyone else. Monday was the only Tide game I really watched this season. OSU’s defense gave Jones the underneath passes and he took them all night. There were some nice throws and catches - and not just to Smith. I’m not sure how he would do against different defensive looks. He showed good heart after the leg got banged up. It’s so tough to tell how these kids (if you can call Jones a kid) are going to do in the league. 1 Quote

His decision making is off the charts. I know he was surrounded by all world talent, but he was the one directing it. I’d like to ask him how much freedom he had to check in and out of plays. And I’m looking forward to hearing how he does on the white board during the run up to the draft. Quote

I doubt if he will be drafted early enough to go to a bad team. He might even get drafted and sit for a while, just like he did in Bama. This will be interesting to watch. 1 Quote

YoloinOhio Posted January 14, 2021 Author Posted January 14, 2021 (edited) Only guy so far leaving to coach with urban is his son in law. He’s focused on nfl guys. Concern that it could impact Ewers commitment because he loves Corey Dennis who was his primary recruiter, but he’s 100% coming to play for Ryan Day. Edited January 14, 2021 by YoloinOhio Quote
YoloinOhio Posted January 14, 2021 Author Posted January 14, 2021 (edited) Urban has offered Greg Mattison the DC job in Jax and he will probably take it 2nd choice on DC is Chris Ash he has offered the DL job to Charlie strong. They have mended their relationship and... Pantoni may leave in some type of personnel role (not GM) marotti is staying Edited January 14, 2021 by YoloinOhio Quote

Other than LJ I’m not happy with the senior leadership on defense. Find more young guys like Washington and let them cook. Pantoni... that hurts. Mick... hallelujah. Quote

I like the guy and great recruiter and I do give these guys the benefit of the doubt on the jacked up offseason but I don’t think he should have the DC role. Secondary coach is fine. If he’s not into that, go back to the nfl. Day can do better at DC. I can’t believe Mattison as a NFL DC but whatever. I don’t think urban would poach Pantoni unless it was him saying he wanted a new opportunity and wants to do something different. I can imagine his job is never ending with these HS kids and parents. Interestingly, Eron Hodges was his assistant a few years ago and went to take a similar role at Purdue. Was reportedly doing a great job, but they parted ways a few weeks ago. I could see him returning. Quote

Whoever decided to go with the 1920's style 4-4 defense against Alabama in the national championship game, and then stick with that defense until the very end even though it was obvious after 5 minutes that it wasn't working, is who needs to go in my view. Mattison, Coombs, whoever. Pantoni's former assistant recently separating with Purdue and potentially returning to OSU is the type of info that keeps me coming back to this thread - lol. Great stuff!

YoloinOhio Posted January 15, 2021 Author Posted January 15, 2021 Ryan Stamper gone and it looks like Corey Dennis may be staying need someone to run Real Life Wednesdays, black stripe removal, etc. I’m sure they will get someone good to replace stamper. Quote
