Figured I would create a new thread for post-spring game discussion.
- Glad JT got limited time. Our season rides largely on him.
- Marcus Allen looked good and it was relieving to see him run well. I think if he continues to get more comfortable back there this summer and fall, and if we can add Skov, we'll be alright at BB. May even have another one-two punch like last year if Skov grasps things quickly.
- AB is a little concerning to me. Didn't see them do much tonight. Really hoping Snoddy comes back a full 100%. A Snoddy/Andrews/Searcy rotation would be solid but we're going to be light at AB this year. Likely have 1-2 true freshmen in the rotation.
- I think my biggest question mark going into the season is receivers (including AB in the passing game). Jeune looked good and could be our next go-to guy. But the 3-4 dropped passes and general lack of big plays in the air brought flash-backs to the era between DThomas and Smelter (2010-2012). We need Summers to finally make a presence out there and get separation. He at least ran a nice route in the corner of the end zone for a score.
- Offensive line will be great.
- I'm stoked about the defense. Jabari was huge, and made a lot of plays. The D-line in general played pretty well and looked the part. I think if PJ Davis had played, the 1st team O might not have had as much success. If we keep everyone healthy, this could be the best defense under CPJ.
All in all, it was a typical spring. A couple of question marks, but still a lot of optimism for next year.
