LoL lateral
The flip side of all that gibberish you wrote above is how do we end up with the Top10 OLs on our Roster, all were nationally ranked as the 800th player or worse when they came out of HS.Utah started FIVE freshmen on defense last night, including two on their D-line. All of their top four cornerbacks are true freshmen. How does this work? Maybe they know how to coach them up? Nevermind - Jimmies and Joes ALWAYS beat X's and O's, amirite?
Their leading tackler last night was a true freshman safety named Cole Bishop. From Fayettteville, GA!!! Eight tackles, seven solo, one sack and one pass defended. A three star whom Kirby prolly puked at. I know Tech tried to croot him. Anyone know what went wrong and he wound up way the hell out in Utah?
Their left tackle is a huge monster JUCO trasnsfer from London, England who just started playing football a few years ago. Their best receiver is a 5'8" former HS QB. Their thousand yard starting RB was anotrher JUCO transfer was literally living in a car a year ago. He replaced another kid who no one wanted and who became PAC-12 freshman of the year before he died of an accidental gunshot last December. That kid, Ty Jordan, was SPECIAL.
AFAIK, they have one former four star on the defense - one of the freshman CBs. Their QB is also a former four-star who transferred from Texas. I believe that is it.
MaxPreps and Rivals and 247Sports do not have a lock on deciding who can play and who can't. No one offered any FBS scholarships to Aaron Rodgers. Josh Allen barely got one. Carson Wentz? Wound up in FCS. Rivals had Aaron Donald as a three star. Etc., etc., etc.
We can have all the 404 and WH and money down and juice in the world, but we will NEVER out-croot ugag, Bama, Clemson, UF, etc. for prep ranking websites' 4 and 5 stars even in our own backyard.
Maybe we should find someone who can spot the talent that the geniuses at Rivals and Maxpreps miss, or who somehow wind up in JUCO, AND who can actually "coach 'em up?"
Coach Johnson? How are you?If you can't pound it into the end zone with 4 shots from the 2 you don't deserve to be in the playoff.
Congrats to NIU. At this point, they probably feel bad that they needed a two point conversion to beat us.maybe, but it doesn't really matter with how bad we were as a team

That T-Fr safety was a Top100 Player in-State (Top75 actually), the kind of Recruit that I have talked about GT going after since Day1, he was committed to Duke, turned down GT and flipped to Utah because he liked their Defense and thought Utah could help him get to the NFL, guess he didn't give a damn about Duke's 40 yr plan, he chose Utah for FB reasons.
We have no idea how that same Player looks vs lightning fast WRs in the SEC, but he is a good player, like I have said on numerous occasions, their is so much high level Talent in GA we should have better players on our Roster.
The question you should be asking, is did that Fr Safety from Utah get better Coaching than our Safeties, or is he a better player because of all the things he does in approaching the Game, film study, paying attention to details?
Both of these teams are playing at a level with which our team is only familiar as spectators.This game is awesome
