Looks like a bigger Randell Johnson.

One of my favorite FAU players of all time.

Anyways, I feel like I am becoming one of the few that's worried about the receiving core.

DeAndre McNeal is on campus now and supposedly looks good, everyone is raving about true-freshmen Willie Wright, still have Bussey, still have Whyte, still have Terry, still have Mitchell, and a few other newcomers.

But none of that matters because DJ14 is going to scramble for 30 yards every play.  :Big-Grin:

According to the new roster, McNeal has been switched to TE. He has the size for it, but I feel like we could use more help at the receiver position. But it's still early, there's plenty of time for that to change.

I like Wright to be the next Lucky/Bussey, a good bubble screen guy from the slot.

Maybe I am overreacting, because we still have Pico and a few new guys, including STA's Jordan Merrell.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yeah I noticed that as well.  I thought we were pretty set at te.  Also a little confused because I've always understood that you need as many good wr options as possible for briles offense to reach full potential.  

On the subject of dropping some schollies from some players, I have no problems with it.  I remember seeing some of the redshirted players not suited up on the sidelines last year thinking man some of those guys had no business being on a D1 program anywhere.  There was also a few instances where I would leave the stadium after a game, walk to my car in silver lot and go to a restaurant on Glades.  There would already be 3 to 5 of the same above mentioned redshirt players already at a table eating as I walked in 15 to 20 mins after final horn blew. I would just think to myself how is that even possible. There was no way in hell those guys were even sticking around to hear what the coaches had to say after the games, so yeah guys like those getting dropped I have no problem whatsoever dropping.

In this O the TE acts like a slot WR lots of times or is outside to block on WR screens. Would be nice to see a WR/TE put his man DOWN just not dance with DB and BOTH then be in the way basically!
