Bennett said 3 in an interview this week.

Only the ignorance of Kentucky can unite GMG in such a beautiful way! (and we all know what they do to goats there)

So defer graduation from high school?

I don’t want to drag this discussion out too long but I would argue Ruder is a legit dual threat. I am not arguing that he is the same player he was in high school or that he was recruited here to be a running QB; however, his recruiting profile makes it clear he was viewed that way. Despite his fairly average passing stats, he was the top prospect in KS and the 15th rated dual threat QB in the nation. His senior year rushing stats were: 114 attempts, 746 yards, and 16 TDs on the ground. Plus: Verified Results FORTY 4.46 SECONDS

I think Ruder is more of a running threat than you are giving him credit for.

Reading former players make analogies about Covid and rushing stats is pretty entertaining

Brett, I really don’t think race should be an issue.

Also ready to consider Trice.

Looks like this might have been news to the players?

I think that this likely explains, at least in part, why he returned. After a somewhat disappointing senior year, it would have been extremely difficult to get picked up by an NFL team when not healthy. If he can recover and thrive in this new system he will have greatly improved his chances.

Memphis and E Mich offers.

I sure hope not since Sanders is a senior and this kid was a freshman starter with three years left.

Are we sure Bennett didn’t just take this job to tank it and get revenge for NT ending his head coaching career?

Oh I don’t think it is the cure for the common cold or anything but I have heard many players mention that they valued their position coach’s NFL experience. I think specifically in reference to Cobbs. Filani certainly wasn’t an NFL mainstay but he was drafted - which is more than anyone from NT can say for the last 15 plus years. Harrell can point to a few years learning from Rodgers. And both coached under Mike Leach. And of course we know Cobbs had a solid journeyman career. Definitely all more than an invite to a mini-camp or tryout like many of our guys have had. Again, we are all rooting for success here but hiring an inexperienced Dline coach as we switch to a new front deserves some scrutiny.

That is some extreme hyperbole. I think it is more than fair to question or voice concerns about both Bennett and coach nepotism.

what a great name for a LB. come on Trice, help us bring this guy here!
