We already have the solid possession guys and guys that make the big play, but now we are just adding homerun threats on top of that...

This offense is going to be scary good with all the versatility we are going to have and homerun hitters...

Unfortunately, our receivers had major problems finding separation against SEC corners the past two NC game, which is a big reason we lost both games. I am not saying they don't have the speed; they just need to learn how to better separate themselves. May be Santonio Holmes can come back and give them some pointers.

It's not speed at all..... We had Gonzo who's running free in the NFL right now who couldn't get away from the SEC corners. IMO, there's a specific type of defense we need to practice more for and that being a pressure type. Blitzing and Press coverage need to become second nature to our offense especially if we have to play another SEC school next year. Lamar Thomas, Hartline, and Ray Small is some pretty damn good speed though. Plus you add Torian Wash, Sanzenbacher, and Posey as well who have more than adequate speed. I like robo's combo of size/speed but he's certainly not as much of a burner as the guys I already listed. They should all take notes from Robo on how to get seperation though because Robo did a nice job of that throughout the year.

10.19 hand-time + 0.24 conversion to FAT = 10.43
...still dumb fast. I believe Saine's best was 10.32. Of course I'd take a 10.3-10.4 guy with great agility (like Thomas) over a 10.1-10.2 guy with not as much agility. Tressel has accumulated some nice speed on this team (just don't tell the rest of the country... the Big10 is still slow).
