Interesting list of "sleepers" thus far--Hardy, Becker, EJ Williams, Ndukwe, Beebe, Wheeler, Coogan, Bond, Black & Turner. Thnx.
I like all these guys but E. J. Williams is my pick.
@mobilehoosier Off topic!
You still down in Mobile, I havn't seen you in a bit on the boards. I took your advice. I'm now down on dog river drive south. Gods country! You still flying?
Is there a private message option yet on this board?
If men were any more stupid, we would have breed for the extinction of women. Proof yet again that WE are the best thing they have going for them.
I'll start with Rolijah Hardy, LB, #21 who started many games as a freshman.
I'll go with Tyrique Tucker on D and Makai Jackson on O.
Tucker impressed me in his time last year.
Jackson has worked with Sarratt (IIRC), and in think will blend well with him and OC.
Rooting for EJ to stay healthy & have the kind of year most of us think he can have. I like a good story, and he’d be one. Drew Evan’s would be another I’ll be pulling for.
Beebe on offense.
On D, a true 'sleeper' Depaepe.
Boogie stole my pick so I'll just second his choice; EJ Williams. The guy has great hands and has made some electrifying catches; he simply has not been target often.
EJ Williams as well ... dude can be a game changer.
Yes, EJ Williams for me too. He just needs to stay on the field.
Aiden Fisher commented at the media days that Roijah Hardy is a "freak" as he can run, jump & catch the football more naturally this year. "The game has slowed down for Ro."
Hardy and Becker would've been my first two choices, but since they've been mentioned, I'll go with Mario Landino. I expect a big jump for him.
Good call.
The strength and power gains Landino has made in one year, just by listed weight, but also the eye test, is amazing to me.
Martin looks the the run away favorite for me.
BEAT PURDUE
@red-hornet Bump. Fun to see who we thought was the "sleeper". Lot of good picks. And some misses.
