Turnpike Lane Intervention Needed

Are there though?

Most teams play a different style DE on the strong side than they do on the weak side. Both those guys look like weak side edge rushers. But sure maybe one can move to strong side.

If you’re Hunter Clegg and you want to play in the NFL

Hill and Popp together absolutely can make that pitch

Turnpike Lane

12/8/22 9:39am

I feel like Dan Lanning (at Oregon) or Lincoln Riley (at USC) probably does

Lincoln Riley would be an idiot to try and recruit kids to Oklahoma

Big Red Thunder

12/8/22 9:43am

Well I look dumb - was thinking of his track record at Oklahoma to recruit to USC and mistyped. Thanks

krindorr

12/8/22 9:45am

Well dang now you fixed it and I look like the idiot

Big Red Thunder

12/8/22 9:45am

That's why I owned up to it above - I was 100% the dummy

krindorr

12/8/22 9:47am

I’ll settle this disagreement and submit that you are both fools of the highest

12/8/22 2:39pm

Not Riley.

He's going to Utah and that's that... best to just accept it at this point.

Do you have 100% knowledge of this?

Yucatan

12/8/22 9:48am

If he doesn't stay at Stanford, he's going to Utah...

Coug

12/8/22 9:49am

With Fano going, who plays his exact same position and same year in school

Turnpike Lane

12/8/22 9:55am

I'm not sure the best players think like that

krindorr

12/8/22 9:56am

Until they get there, then that's what the Transfer Portal is for. 🙂

ManicBlue

12/8/22 10:00am

100% - every recruit (whether 2* or 5*) thinks they're going to come in and show what they can do

krindorr

12/8/22 10:05am

Correct in many cases, however the opposite thought process can also take place.

Yucatan

12/8/22 10:05am

The smart ones should. Depth chart should be a factor 100%.

Turnpike Lane

12/8/22 10:05am

Last I checked... there are 2 of those positions.

Coug

12/8/22 10:15am

Are there though?

Utah also has Van Fillinger filling an EDGE spot for sure (at least next year)

krindorr

12/8/22 10:32am

Fillinger was second team all conference on Athalon this year.

Bullrider

12/8/22 10:52pm

Clegg is going on a mission, so depth chart is nearly impossible to predict

displacedute

12/9/22 6:48am

Exactly, hard to predict anywhere...esp. with the portal. We will see how things look when he gets back from Armenia.

Cougstreak

12/9/22 8:16am

If he is any good, he will get on the field.

Stalwartbob

12/8/22 2:01pm

Why the eye rolls? A reasonable question when he speaks with such certainty.

Yucatan

12/8/22 1:14pm

Nothing is ever 100%, but it is a VERY high likelihood.

Cougstreak

12/8/22 2:00pm

How so? Maybe I'm uneducated on Popp's track record

CommodoreCoug

12/8/22 9:51am

Kyle Van Noy, Fred Warner, Harvey Langi, Sione Takitaki, Bronson Kaufusi

krindorr

12/8/22 9:55am

Alani Fua, Uani Unga...

Nuke

12/8/22 10:13am

Sounds like Bronco.

coolblue

12/8/22 5:42pm

It would be an awesome jump start in correcting this crapfest we have right now

Cougar TD

12/8/22 10:14am

He should think like Zach Wilson

Big-Q

12/8/22 1:52pm

How many are in the NFL right now and how many have excelled?

ManicBlue

12/8/22 2:05pm

Warner and Van Noy only active, a couple on practice squads.

Stalwartbob

12/8/22 2:21pm

Takitaki was active this year until his injury.

Rise Against

12/8/22 3:55pm

Looking at Defensive Line Play in the last 18 years

krindorr

12/8/22 2:35pm

I'll add that we've had some stellar LBs in that time, so part of it may also be schematic

krindorr

12/8/22 2:40pm

Can’t tell if this is tongue in cheek.

jimmything

12/8/22 3:36pm

The cougar faithful will need to come up with at least 50k/year in NIL money

Sircumference

12/8/22 7:22pm

um I hate to say "barf" but the Utes do. How many DL and DE's have they put in

BYU Grounds

12/8/22 8:04pm

krindorr ...with another one of his data filled posts explains it here - link

HarlemCoug

12/8/22 8:12pm

I saw that too. It will be an uphill battle. We need to first develop what we

BYU Grounds

12/8/22 8:15pm

Yeah, I've gotten a lot of angry board mails about that

krindorr

The devil would like a word.
