That's a good read. I know plenty of you are mad that Mac didn't put Bowlcut's favorite third string QB last year, but Mac getting what we did out of that crap OL and other offensive talent last year was an amazing job.

 

[MertzJay26]

Agreed. I have high hopes for Mac for his time here and truly believe he will bring us a championship. If recruiting doesn't step up I have little doubt he will make the necessary moves to change that (Nord for starters).

I'm ready. Are we there yet?

Very good article and thanks for sharing. One thing is for sure Jay26......If Mac improves the play, which he has, the recruits will come. If he brings us some championships like you think he will, recruits will be knocking the door down. It will happen.

Good, goooood. Feel the sunshine flowing through you!

I'm a pumper and I'll readily admit there are questions about this team. I just prefer to believe that Mac has us moving forward considering what he accomplished in Year 1 (with the train wreck he inherited). At the same time, college football is too unpredictable for me to make any bold statements with my avatar or sig hanging in the balance.

This just proves that we don't need the best OL in the SEC or the best QB... we just need an average OL and a solid QB who can hit the open man and McElwain's offense will create the mismatches to allow our athletes at TE, WR and RB to make plays. I think we will have a good offense for years to come under McElwain.

I am not as confident in our defense at this point. Collins did an OK job last year with an extremely talented D. This year he will have a lot of talent again, but defensive recruiting has not been good the last couple of years and we are going to have a very young and inexperienced D in 2017.

*After we win our first title under Mac*

"But can he repeat with recruiting this terrible?"

Very good read. Thanks for sharing. It feels nice knowing that we're going to out-coach some teams this year and in years to come. That's why I predict we'll win the East again. Do any of you think that Butch or Kirby will have Mac's offense figured out this year? I certainly don't.

 

[GatorJ]

I think we take a drastic leap forward on offense this year. I am more worried about defense starting next year. We have got to bring in a stellar DT class this year. They are doing a great job of identifying rush ends but you live and die in the SEC on the line of scrimmage. If you cannot stop the rush you won't be able to stop anyone.

After all that talk prior to the season Mac didn't use much under center stuff at all transitioning into the offense over time like he did at Colorado State. That is a good sign I guess.

I think the key this year is getting a push in the run game. To be a good offense over a whole season in the SEC you must have a real threat there which we didn't last year because of the young O line.

He did say that the running backs was the best position group on the team. Now we just need somebody to open holes.

Hopefully that new RB can get over the fumbling problems because he looks like he could wear a defense down some. I felt bad for Taylor last season because he was not given any help up front but with so many young guys playing I guess it was to be expected.

Here's a good piece on the running backs.
