Hmmmm.... I think a certain game on September 7th might help with one of those “hidden targets”.

That target may even be committed to the team that’s gonna get their ass handed to them in Austin, September 7th.

Maybe the guy has shared what he's comfortable with, and everyone should stop trying to go around poking shit with sticks when it clearly came with the caveat of "The staff doesn't want his name out there." Casual Encounter nailed it, some of you fuckers could fuck up a piece of pizza or a blowjob from a porn star. 

You're saying you don't want Surly to pull a Ketchum vis a vis Kyler Murray?

The plan at LB is:

-Tillman looks great and might end up starting this year (is he the most unheralded signee? at least the most unheralded early enrollee, but critical if he really is developing in such a manner this early)

-Gbenda takes a similar jump on the learning curve as he settles in (he was expected to be the early contributor but wasn’t an EE)

-Floyd gets medically cleared (I don’t see it)

-One of the JUCO signees makes an appearance as a player

-stay on Chris Thompson and see what happens if Auburn falls apart (does the payment to the parents keep him locked in with a new regime? is this guy an EE?)

-one of Hullaby and JQJ becomes an LB

-if Overshown isn’t made of glass, does he eventually see LB-esque action with a DB label this season and does that work for him and the defense? 

-Owens might fit that bill eventually if Overshown doesn’t 

-they have a target that they do not want to be public right now (they’re hoping he stays hidden, a la Gary Johnson in 2017, or he’s committed elsewhere and they feel really good about a flip)

-they will scour the transfer/GT landscape all the way up to next summer

So yeah, none of us feel like LB is sorted, but Orlando has a lot of optionality, which he craves. 

Interesting info. Thanks. Seems like Todd views scheming and preparation of the defense as whole as his main responsibility, which it is. Recruiting his position group is secondary and a lemons—>lemonade kind of thing.

Well, if a porn star offers me pizza or a blowjob, I'm taking the blowjob.

Then maybe fire one of your two WR coaches and hire a LB coach/recruiter? Just spitballin' here.
