Predictions are fun.
We finish 14th overall.

10-15 is wishful thinking but I think if we get Tee we may be able to flip Ramsey and Hatcher. I also think maybe Thigpen and Martinez can sway some guys to sign.

If Tee comes we will get Top 15. Defense has to be a priority with WR and a Top RB....
LB
1. Trey Johnson- We have to make a Huge push here, and I think we will. Could be a day 1 starter here, we don't have a 2nd OLB
2. EJ Levenberry
3. Quinton Powell- Just decommited from Florida. USCE leads, but Tee Martin was his main recruiter at USCW
DB
1. Jalen Ramsey
2. Mackenzie Alexander
3. Marquez White
4. Von Bell
All of these guys would start day 1 on our defense. No question in my mind. We get 2 or 3 of the guys above our talent on defense will be much better...
Both CB spots are open and so is SS. We are not talented at those positions. Same with an explosive DE and OLB. The talent on D is just so poor and the depth is even worse.

I agree except that I think McNeil will be a very good SS

I thought McNeil regressed to be honest. Though his 2 best games were UGA and S.CAR... Not sure he is fast enough, but a full offseason will only help.

Playing day in and day out in the SEC against teams that are in the top 10 will take a toll on a true freshman. Just something to think about. Maybe he hit that freshman wall that everyone talks about.

Levenberry committed to FL St I think. JMO he and his dad just wanted attention and Sal read them like a book.......it didnt make sense. Makes sense now since he didnt give our new staff even a chance to say hello.

I would be happy with 13th. We have a TON to do if thats happening as IMO we are about to lose our jucos and maybe 1-3 more by EE or NSD.
I dont see Vonn Bell but I think we will see some new names for sure.
Green and JRM and ? will be our top guys
