It means a few possible things, actually.

The starters last year were not as good as a couple of unknowns this year.

Last year's starters are no worse than some unknowns this year, but the starters last year were bad enough that taking a chance on unknowns seemed reasonable.

Or, the newcomers just happen to be THAT good.

There is a phrase.

8/19/14 10:05pm

But that doesn't capture the "outsider breaking in" flavor I'm looking for.

I liked Playoff Players way better, just the way it rolls of the tongue

I like the phrase "Playoff Crackers". It would describe our team well.

Ului isn't locked in at LT. Just appears to be locked at A tackle spot.

8/19/14 2:07pm

Fusi was getting good reviews - but Koroma must be really good

Bronoc

8/19/14 2:17pm

Yeah, i am shocked Fusi is getting passed up.

2J said Ului to LT, Dre to RT likely permanent

That kind of confirms Bronco's assessment of him having NFL ability...

According to Jay Drew it sounds more locked than it is not

Interesting. Our new freshmen must be absolute freaks.

southernfriedcougar

8/19/14 2:21pm

and I didn't even mention Kanuch in my summary

Bronoc

8/19/14 2:23pm

If 3 of 5 spots are locked down by freshmen, that says a lot for our

Many thought Ryker was a freak starter as a Freshman and that he was the future

dfudge

IF Ului is really that good. I doubt he stays here for 4 years.

Lance71

8/19/14 5:28pm

Especially given his age. Draft stock hit if he he stays 4 or 5 years.

HawkCat

8/19/14 8:39pm

Then we'll get the best out of him in 3.

I'm excited about our Oline, sounds like they've been doing much better.

All these new players on the OL means one thing.

AFcoug7

Yeah, and hopefully it doesn't take the whole year for them to gel
