Its a good move, it fits how Lamur plays anyway. The LB unit will be a huge upgrade this year.

The Linebacker unit and the safety positions should be just fine this year. It's the 2 tackles and two cornerback spots that worry me.

So, two thirds of this 'upgraded' LB corp was on the field and starting in the Pinestripe Bowl and managed to play a part in holding the 76th best rushing attack in college football to only 6 yards per carrry?  And the third piece of this puzzle so far averages an impressive 4.5 solo tackles per season?   :woot:

Sock, or just one of those awesome, eternally pessimistic douches that frequents this board? Tre was a true Frosh, Lamur had literally no experience at LB and Brown will be a huge improvement even if he doesn't live up to the hype.

While I believe you are wrong..your delivery deserves merit. Good show.

Didn't ELamur start at safety in the PB?  Tre was really lookingg good by the end of the season.  I would definitely say this LB corp will be much better than last year's.  Hell, just by replacing Rat with an actual LB should help quite a bit and the less Hrebec sees the field, the better.  (Guess he can play special teams, he seems like the kind of dude who would be good at that type of thing).

From the article above:

Quote
Cosh said that Lamur, who also started at linebacker against Syracuse in the Pinstripe Bowl, continues to improve as he learns the position.

Will they be better than last year?  Probably.  They're more talented on paper than last year's group and they'll have more experience.  But it's not a stone cold lock the production will be significantly better this year.

Just thought it was interesting that two thirds of this 'upgrade' was already in place for the bowl game and got collectively ran over by a pedestrian, at best, Syracuse offense.

Love Arthur.

Like Tre.

Not excited about Emmanuel, but he'll be fine.
