I want to see batty tofa fauatea and Daley play a lot. I don’t think the three man front plays to our strengths this year.

I think DT might be our weakest position. O and ST are stacked. LB looks ok and

I agree with your assessment

Yes, I agree we need to dedicate more defenders to the box. But if the past

I listened to an interview with Phil Steele yesterday. Kalani has some secret DL

lilpenny

Other than last year the DL hasn't been very good under Kalani

ayfan

Hahahaha. This kind of logic makes me scratch my head

Next year is Kalani's 6th year as HC, if you don't have good DT's by your 6th

You don’t expect Mahe to be good?

Charles Darwin

Really I don’t think he has a clue who is on the roster. We are 10 deep at

travelcoug

6/18/21 5:45pm

Right. My post was literally a link to the depth chart. Hahahahhaha

Let me help you then

travelcoug

6/18/21 5:59pm

Those guys are solid depth pieces.

ayfan

6/18/21 6:09pm

Quit googling and tell me something you know from having seen them play

travelcoug

6/18/21 6:22pm

Wow internet tough guy here. You've literally said nothing to show you know

ayfan

6/18/21 6:33pm

And while you’re googling, could you provide a link to show me that we lost

travelcoug

6/18/21 6:29pm

Tyler Manoa, Mika Tafua for starters.Too bad you don't pay attention to the team

ayfan

6/18/21 6:36pm

Link?

travelcoug

6/18/21 7:40pm

Both of them decommitted from us after we started losing. It’s public info you

ayfan

6/18/21 7:45pm

So what you’re saying is

travelcoug

Also explain how you know a walkon Freshman is a legit starter. Oh wise one

ayfan

6/18/21 6:39pm

Btw

travelcoug

6/18/21 6:00pm

I expect him to be an okay back up this year not a great starter

ayfan

6/18/21 5:47pm

Who do you expect to start?

Charles Darwin

6/18/21 5:51pm

I think right now mahe and mariner probably are the starters but

6/18/21 5:56pm

Assuming BYU runs the 3 man front they seem to favor. Both of those guys will be

Moving Lo makes me think they feel good about the interior

Charles Darwin

6/18/21 6:36pm

Won't surprise me if it ends up Mahe & Haws as the interior starters, though.

In recruiting years it was 5 because most of the recruiting was done before he

What about Safety? Unless Udo gets healthy or Chaz is full speed.

DraperCoug22

6/18/21 4:48pm

We have pretty good corner depth. I think we cross train some of them. Not

ayfan

6/18/21 5:59pm

Malik Moore & Livingston are experienced & talented. Kapisi can move back too.

SinkingQuffa

6/18/21 8:43pm

Yeah I'm most worried about the safety position.

JuicyJam

6/18/21 4:58pm

If Mahe is healthy I think he’ll do really well, but yes otherwise its worrying

IntelCougar

6/18/21 5:04pm

Mahe has potential. But

They’re replacing Tonga but they’ve got 4 who have at least rotated for years now

JollyGreenGiant

6/18/21 5:06pm

Batty looked as legit as we've seen. Just has to stay on the field.

Lip Gallagher

6/18/21 7:58pm

Tonga is a loss but not irreplaceable. I thought he failed to consistently live

Forzaitalia

LB looks more than ok. It looks great. And DT has more experience than DE.

Lip Gallagher

Meh! I honestly disagree.
