If Green and Walker didn't qualify/stay, then that leaves us with zero freshman linebackers.
It's not a huge problem; we'll fill in the gaps in their class in a couple of years with JUCO guys if need be, but that's disappointing.
the ish i heard on walker from my guy was "he was asked to leave." not sure if true.
I mean it's not a really big deal. Some SR walk-on will get a scholarship for his last year now.
The 2018 class is really, really small due to the small number of seniors, so a little attrition isn't a negative considering our recruiting hasn't sucked the last couple of years.
Consistently under recruiting and failing to fill a position of need has worked out well for us in the past. So yeah no big deal if you want a LB group manned by a bunch of Will Davis type players.
Wtf are you going on about? You do realize our two most recent starting LB's not only had big 12 honors but both are on NFL rosters, right? But yeah, you're right, our staff is really dropping the ball getting big 12 talent lbs on our roster. That's a red hot burning take you got there
And who is stepping in to fill their shoes? Our LB group has zero experience and sketchy depth. This is like having Hubenor be our starting qb or stonehands Burton our #1 WR. It doesn't work out well for us. They missed those positions and it killed us.
Yes inexperienced and unknown, because they were playing behind future pros. I'd be far more concerned if our recently departed LB's were run of the mill.very average players that none of our other lb's on the roster could beat out, but thats not the case, is it?
So yes, there is an unknown from an experience on gameday standpoint. But nothing has been proven otherwise either way, saying the coaching staff has failed to adequately manage that roster depth at this point is pretty dumb because you literally dont know how good or not good the current lbs will be. Just as dumb as another fan harping about the Huebener year, i mean, How DARE the coaches not adequately recruit complete STUDS who could start for any big 12 school to be our 4th string QB! Such failure!
