We are ranked 106 out of 128 teams in rushing defense. We are ranked 126th out of 128 teams in sacks We are ranked 96th out of 128 teams in total defense WTF do you mean the staff is content with the DTs that remain? They better not be!!!

I'm not saying we are better than any of the teams I circled, but we are on the same level or higher (in the case of JMU). Those are all G6 or FCS schools i circled.

I didn’t say I agree with not trying to upgrade the DT position. I recall some saying that the lack of production from the DL in the run game and pass rush was more due to putrid play from the DEs not necessarily the DTs. If there’s any position that separates P5 from G5 it’s the DL so I’m all in favor of upgrading whenever we can. Also, every returning DT is either a grad student or senior. If we sign a DT in February, we could be left with 1 returning DT which is ridiculous. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I personally only want one DT and DE transfer this year. I dont think we need to stock up until next year. I like Thad Magnum and Blake Green are good, but we need 1 more run stuffer and 1 defensive end that can give us at least 4 sacks on the year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If we can get a DE that can give us 25% to half of their production I would be satisfied. My standards aren't that high. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
