A 17-year subscriber.Who asked "Five or more losses this season will result in Herman’s termination?"? That question is SO OFF base. Is this person an aggie poser? Who else would be wondering such a question (and maybe hoping for it)? I am just stunned by it.
Can you please answer the question?
I probably agree with you.I’ll have to go with the player the coaches are raving about - T Graham.
You still haven't answered the question.
Yes, I used production as a key point to discussing the questions of this team.
why should they be collective upgrades? Neither belongs in the same sentence with Omenihu.
I probably agree with you.
It has to be noted, though, that Graham was not a plus player a year ago. He struggled to rush the passer and at times the coaches preferred to keep running out Hager, despite the fact he wasn't any better.
He's the most bankable player on the line and he's a major question mark at this point.
Hence, the top section.
So, with equal playing time, you are asserting the production would be just as good?Here is your production analysis:
“The production of 2018 along the defensive line with the three starters featured a combined 115 tackles, 31 tackles for loss and 12 sacks, which came on the heels of that trio recording a combined 69 tackles, 19 tackles for loss and nine sacks as juniors.
With the departure of that senior trio goes a ton of production and never was the impact of their departures more profound than on the opening week of spring practice when their spots in the line-up were filled with the likes of junior Taquan Graham, senior Gerald Wilbon and senior Malcolm Roach - a trio that combined for a mere 3.5 tackles for loss and two sacks in 2018.”
In order to have the meaning you impart to them, these numbers have to be calibrated to relative playing time. You would also need to include the tackles number for the current returners.
Except he was a sophomore that started the entire season, instead of a reserve that barely played meaningful snaps because of a lack of production.That sounds a lot like an analysis that would have belonged to Omenihu coming out of his sophomore season.
I think there's some confirmation bias in this opinion.I don’t think the gap between roach and omenihu is larger between the Hager and graham.
So, with equal playing time, you are asserting the production would be just as good?
That isn't apples to apples... at all.To compare apples to apples, you’d have to take the 2017 production of Omenihu, Hager and Nelson (69 tackles 19 TFLs and 9 sacks) and adjust the ? tackles, 3.5 TFL and 2 sacks of Graham, Wilbon and Roach upward to correspond to the 2017 playing time for Omenihu, Hager and Nelson versus the 2018 playing time of Graham, Wilbon and Roach.
I’d also like to know the fumbles caused/recovered stats and if bowl games are included because one of the biggest plays of 2018/9 was Graham causing Swift’s fumble in the Sugar Bowl that Wilbon recovered.
I love both. I want both.My B/S questions never make it. I think they are hard hitting and thought provoking.

Yeah, I'm the one in this thread that is reaching...You’re reaching now.

I believe the Defensive Line is going to be every bit as good as last year. Roach and Graham have plenty of experience, great talent, and being upper classmen, their bodies are very developed to go with that talent/experience. With Junior College Jones onboard along with Ojomo, there is talented depth. I expect the Hager position will be upgraded. Wilbon is experienced as well, and backfiling Nelson is not as big of a leap as it was for Nelson backfilling Poona Ford. Add in Coburn as backup, or even Ojomo here and the talent depth is as good as this past year at this position.
My concern for defense is not the DL, but the two LB spots held last year by Johnson and Wheeler, and the Corners losing two experienced seniors as well. Replacing Gary Johnson is gap priority #1 to figure out.
I don't think apples to apples means what you think it means because what you've suggested ain't it.It would be a precise apples to apples comparison. It’s the results of that comparison that we can’t know without someone doing the work.
But he missed a good part of the year with an injury. Is it possible this is why he didn't progress fast enough?No, he played in 2/3 of the games.

we all have our personal favoritesWinds of Winter criminally underrated. Also, need to flip Hardome and The Lion and the Rose.
