Early Schiano 2.0 classes were heavy on linemen and D.
That is the foundation on which the program is built.
I think we’ve clearly made great progress there.
This year’s frosh class was the first with several talented skill guys who redshirted.
We all know how important special teams can be.
What I’m curious to see this spring is whether this infusion of talent/speed starts to make its way into our program first through special teams.
Also if our philosophy on PR/KR changes. This year we were clearly thrown off by the injury to Long, Rochelle’s struggles an emergence of Dremel.
We clearly could not afford an injury to our top receiver but the move had to be made to get a reliable returner.
That said, I felt we left a lot of yards on the table by rarely, if ever, even attempting to return kicks.
Is it possible someone may emerge to give us a weapon reminiscent of electric players from what seems like a bygone era:
Eric Young, Terrell Willis, Nate Jones, Willie Foster, Janarion Grant, Aron Cruickshank?
