    OC/WR Coach Brian Hartline (National Champion)

    With more on the way next year and the year after.

    I would never have thought that Simon would go before Burke. Here's hoping they both have great careers with the Cardinals.

    HC Ryan Day (National Champion)

    I think we're also seeing that winning a title pays huge dividends.

    OC/WR Coach Brian Hartline (National Champion)

    Could have two in two years. I imagine that Smith and Inniss declare the same year.

    OC/WR Coach Brian Hartline (National Champion)

    I think Tate will have a big year and benefit from the focus on Smith. Hart coaches these guys on the details of being a pro receiver and I've read nothing about Carnell that would suggest that he's not up to the first round .standard.

    OC/WR Coach Brian Hartline (National Champion)

    The entire two-deep has gone #1. No idea how to track that, but it's got to be a record, regardless of position group; assuming multiple players, of course, RBs would be the obvious exception back in the day. Thinking Thurman Thomas and Barry Sanders and UGA may've had it more recently.

    DE Beau Atkinson (Official Thread)

    I imagine that the coaches spoke with Jackson and Curry similarly as they did with Henderson last year before bringing Judkins in. The portal is fraught with locker room ego problems, but we've always seemed to manage and avoid that.

    DE Beau Atkinson (Official Thread)

    Always nice to beat UGA for talent. He's now a guy we don't see on the other side in a playoff.

    Second team would be starters at a lot of Power 5 schools.

    K Jayden Fielding (All B1G, National Champion)

    And THAT is exactly the problem. I respect that he tried to work through it. Been there and that's baller, BUT tOSU shouldn't have to rely on a guy working through "a lot of “trial and error” in learning how to kick with an injured hip". That's poor special teams planning that degenerated...

    QB Lincoln "Dakota" Kienholz (National Champion)

    We've all heard about Sayin's fast processing speed and quick release and those are phenomenal luxuries to have, but you have to be able to execute. Sometimes a pickup truck is what's necessary. Tough, gets the job done. That may what we have with LK. I'd certainly be happy with a more...

    QB Lincoln "Dakota" Kienholz (National Champion)

    If he keeps improving, I like our chances with him. Howard showed that we can win it all with a guy who's a leader and athletic enough to move the chains. Worst case, he pushes Sayin to improve.

    DC Matt Patricia (Official Thread)

    I just don't think Day squanders the post-NC karma reserve he's got on a bad DC hire. We can all speculate based on the past, but we don't really know anything until there's feedback from inside the Woody. What I'm reading from both the coaches and players is that they're glad Patricia was...

    DC Matt Patricia (Official Thread)

    I think there's room for agnostic optimism without deeming it a home run. Follow the evidence. The evidence so far, while not in-game, has been in the weight and locker rooms and practice field and has been positive and articulated positively in contrast to Knowles. Maybe this doesn't...

    My bad. Mods, please move to the Patricia thread or 2025 Defense, if there is one, if so inclined.
