Not only does not give them enough credit, he has some fact wrong. Said that Zeek Bigger was the only Starting LB returning, well that's wrong, fact is that Brandon Williams had 6 starts last year, Falls had 2, Overton had 3. So he is a bit off there. Also, still has Stanley on the team (out for season injury) and if you read his break down of the D, he seems to think we run a 4-3-4. Say the back 7 is the issue. Wait, that would be 4 DB's and 3 LB's, that's wrong we run a 3-4-4.
Also for the O-line, apparently he has no idea we are bringing in to highly rated JUCO OL, one we flipped last minute from UofL.
That said 7-9 is what you see, could be more if things go well, but we have to avoid the injury bug, especially on the OL.
Also, his math is way off on returning starters. Only 9 total, sorry no, Carden, Hardy, D. Grayson, Jones, two OL, Worthy, that 7 on O and there are others with starts on O, D we got Williams, Rose, Bigger, Overton, Williams, Hawkins, that 6 returning with starts, total of 13 or 14 think I missed a WR that has 3-4 starts.
