Our RFR OL better be as good as advertised AND stay injury free. While Gilbert wasn't going to win any popularity contests, losing 26 games of experience is going to hurt depth. There are a lot of questions for 2010 season. OL? unproven with 'potential' WR? Hill and who? Jackson or is he going to play AB? Melton? NT? Lanier - unproven but has 'potential'

Hell, we won 9 in '08 without an experienced QB. I have to assume the departures of bebe and JD is the main reason people think we'll take a step back. The loss of bebe is IMO much bigger than JD just because we some proven RBs, but our WRs are a big unknown. I think we'll see fewer dropped passes, which were something of a problem last year, because we will have some good competition for the WR spots. Stephen Hill will have a much bigger impact this year, barring injury of course, and we just need one more guy to step up. I'm not saying the passing game will be night-and-day better than last year, but with an improved OL, I expect the offense to be AT LEAST as potent as it was last year.

Didn't he practive at AB last year? Is he moving to WR as rumored?

The offense will be FINE. If there was going to be a problem, it would've been '08 when nobody knew anything!! Improve the defense from pathetic to average, and we should be competing for the ACC more years than not.

People are skeptical because we are losing the #1 RB in college football, as well as the #4 WR. There's a pretty big drop off at a football factory like SC or Texas when that happens, even more so for a non-football factory like Tech. Last edited on Mon Feb 8th, 2010 10:20 pm by Geori |

I am holding out a little hope that with some new player additions, a new DC, and a new system, the defense might be able to make a few more stops next year, but I realize that it will probably still be a major "work in progress". As CPJ basically used his offensive system to make the offense run without a great O-line, I am hoping that CAG can do a similar magic act with the defense. I dont care where we finished last year,we must and I repeat we must do better this year.Our season depends on stopping folks so we can get the ball to the option guys so we need to get it done.Hope Old Al can work wonders.
