Re: 2020 commitments (23) and offers
Exactly why he should be used "now and again." Maybe not on fourth down, but on first and goal from the one. Ifanse in the 'I' behind Fitzgerald. Hand it to Fitzgerald. One more thing for the defense to account for.bobcat99 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 06, 2020 3:15 pmBecause he's not much of a running threat at the college level. The cons outweigh the positives there, imo.

I understand the need for safeties and DL next season, but not sure the need for corners. There are six returning corners, Filer and Thomas are starters with three others seeing the field in 12 or more games, along with two outstanding incoming freshmen, I don't get it.VimSince03 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 06, 2020 2:35 pmDefense: Safety and corner (can never have enough).

Filer - Sr.
Thomas - Sr.
Ty'Rhae Gibson - Jr.
Price Jr. - So.
Zambrano - So.
Others who will compete for playing time:
Ty'Rese Gibson - So.
Bohannon - Fr.
King - Fr.
Jackson - Fr.
Lenzy - Fr.
Zambrano and Bohannon may have to also compete at safety to our lack of depth there (pure speculation). Adding one more wouldn't hurt due to the position's potential for attrition every year.

DE's Bobby Duncan and Trey Sofia are two Texas high school products Choate and Hout would love to get up here to rush the quarterback for years to come. They fit the mold!

A nugget: "Manning had just one offer at the end of April, from Montana State, but the evaluation period saw his stock soar, and he ended up with nearly 20 offers."

I mean, he changed his profile pic to himself in a Cat uniform, but doesn't officially say anything anywhere.
No idea what that string of emojis means haha. Feel like I should drink a Rainier and figure it out.
