Including Banks and Slay, since Dan took over in 2009 we have put 10 players in the NFL, most of them earning quality playing time.
We have had 3 straight bowl appearances and we consistently put players in the league. It's becoming a trend to hear Mississippi State University called on the first and second day. I'm excited about the upcoming season. Since some people are talking about the struggles in baseball I will happily talk about our football program.
We are going to be playing Tyler under center more, probably in more of a pro-style "use the run to set up the pass" offense. Because of this, Robinson will see a much increased roll and produce solid numbers accordingly. As much as I like Milton, Robinson should be a beast for us and will be the better out of the two. LDP will still be our main back but with Robinson's power it is going to be hard to keep him out of those Ace formations.
I hope to see Holloway get a few chances this fall too. He's electric.
Geoff Collins has his chance, let's see what he can do for us with the full off-season to prepare his defense. Most of you already know how great it is to have David Turner back.
It's good to see Nick James taking himself seriously. I wish Quay would get it together upstairs, it seemed like every time he would get in for a play or two his name was called. I think he has all the natural ability but we'll see how it plays out. We're going to need all the help we can get up front to help out our green secondary.
Who are some signees that you are looking forward to seeing on campus (or are already there)?
How do you feel about the football team? The Defense?
