I remember the guys in Savage's first class bulking up and leaning down a lot, and quickly. I'm thinking the deficiencies we're talking about now have to have something to do with the COVID protocols going back to Feb. or March.

I see some players getting thicker, while others (mainly DEs and LBs) failing to do so. I seriously wonder if tg is telling Savage that he wants a lighting fast defense and doesn't want them slowed down by gaining too much weight.

Or maybe we're not recruiting the right players on D.

Or maybe Savage isn't getting it done.
The problem is these guys are not lightning fast. The secondary and LBs are slow and light. The DL doesn't have a quick first step either.

Just to clarify, I said tg "wants" a fast D. I never said we HAD a fast D.

While we're better with Campbell, we're still a bit soft in the middle with the skinny LBs.

Move a couple of those jacked up WRs who can't catch to safety. There's no room at TE.

maybe we could work him at fullback.

Spoke with a local coach about Gervon. He’s working through the typical adjustments of a freakishly big/fast guy who thought he worked hard in high school. Looks like he’s taking that seriously, I hope so, but we won’t know until LSU.
I fully expect him to explode. He was disruptive often even last year.
