Sounds like Taylor planning to be back next fall.
- Thread starter patdog
- Start date
Well they better go buy some offenses lineman.
Lenny better spend on OL. Taylor taking 30 sacks won’t work.
Unfortunately I don't think they are capable of doing so.
As bad as this OL was, what’s even worse is they really tried to improve it.
Don’t be surprised with some new assistants next year.
Really gypsy? I would be surprised if there aren't! Should actually be required for this trainwreck to continue down the track!
whatever system they're using to evaluate talent (if they're even using a system) isn't worth a shite. and the talent won't improve next year. who's going to come play for a dead man walking?
Lebby will have to pay a “tempo tax” on recruiting, forcing them to overpay for linemen that are scared off by the injury roulette and draft-stock risk. Veteran OLs (4th–6th-year guys with 30+ starts) see the film: 19 missed starts (SEC-high), +190-220 extra explosive reps vs. slower peers like Vandy for comparison (Healthiest OL in SEC). Result? MSU’s NIL collective shells out 25–40% premiums. Agents cite “rep math”- Why add 200 reps when Vandy pays less for clean film?
Then we will need 9-10 quality guys for a rotation to withstand and maintain Lebby’s extreme tempo.
3 million for KT, 10 million for an O line and student body tryouts for defense
How do Ole Miss and UT deal with it? No flame-I mean that. This is good information. I understand the logic of wear and tear being riskier, but we’re not the only ones who run tempo. So is there literally no other option than to pay the premium ?
Yes, no other option. Lebby’s offense will have to pay much higher premiums for Linemen (on both sides of the ball). Both Ole Miss and Tennessee do sustain and balance—longer drives—Ole Miss 32:12 TOP/game, (#12 nationally); Tennessee 30:45, (#25 nationally) mean fewer returns, dropping defensive snaps to 72.5 (#28 nationally) for Ole Miss and 69.3 (#7 SEC) for Tennessee. Result: Minimal drift (Ole Miss +3% 4th-Q D efficiency; Tennessee +1%), vs. MSU’s -18% plunge. OL/rotation- both Ole Miss and Tennessee (7-9); State (5-7). Also both Ole Miss and Tennessee actually move the chains. They have a real run games. They mix tempo with huddle. They finish drives. And again, they rotate bodies. Same philosophical tree, totally different pruning.
Interesting. So yet again, our inability to get quality lineman comes back to the head coach.
They're offensive alright...
The portal musical chairs is going to create numerous opportunities to upgrade both lines. We don't have to get 5 star players. Just getting a mid-range 3 star DT and DE is going to be an upgrade. If Lebby can't close the deal with 4 defensive linemen and 4 offensive lineman who can start the day they unload their stuff then his *** needs to be gone before 2026 rolls around.
