Damn really?! I’m having a hard time reconciling this in my head. Is it possible we are good this year? Like for real for real?

We're still really young, but we are on the cusp.Damn really?! I’m having a hard time reconciling this in my head. Is it possible we are good this year? Like for real for real?
That's ball carriers... most of our fastest guys are DBs and the same is likely true of the NFL.We have 5 players faster than anyone in the NFL? Bodes well...
Did you find it?
Do you have some recruiting news we can talk about? It’s the dead period so there won’t be much out there right now. Maybe some highlights from some our our recruits’ current games, but that’s it.Is there ANY chance we can bring the conversation in this thread back to Recruiting? Please?
No, but NFL players slow down some from their college days. This is ball carriers (as pointed out) who played week 1 of preseason, and not all the stars saw the field that week.We have 5 players faster than anyone in the NFL? Bodes well...

Hopefully we run some consecutive fly patterns and see how many sprints their DB;s can handle.3 of our top 5 are wideouts.
If you stay on the cusp for just the right amount of time, the payoff can be very lucrative.We're still really young, but we are on the cusp.
Tech has a track team, right. How many of those guys are faster than the FB guys? We should just suit up the fastest guys and, bingo - profit, right?No, but NFL players slow down some from their college days.

My takeaway and why I posted it, is we are fast enough. It is the other skills which will decide our fate. But we won't be able to say we are too slow to compete.
My second takeaway is our players practice fast, which means the are familiar with what they need to do on each play. I think that is a very encouraging measurement confirming what the coaches have been claiming all spring.
Starting next season our experience and talent level will begin to pay big dividends.If you stay on the cusp for just the right amount of time, the payoff can be very lucrative.
Faster is better than slower just like bigger is better than smaller. Yes we need to perform and get some wins but speed is always a positive.Tech has a track team, right. How many of those guys are faster than the FB guys? We should just suit up the fastest guys and, bingo - profit, right?
How about we get the top 5 guys on the NFL list and have them run against the top 5 Tech guys in a side by side drill? Who wins?
This speed discussion is inane.
Spare me the "we are faster now" nonsense. So what? Can they catch, block, hit at speed? Time will tell. Until then the speed to results correlation is near zero.
