proven anything yet, and that I’m not counting chickens before eggs hatch.

If I was going to argue, this is what I’d be arguing… The cupboard actually is pretty bare. We really don’t have any proven solid DL on this team outside of Batty. We shouldn’t be relying on a bunch of unproven freshman to lead the charge on the DL on the way into the B12. Thankfully we got some grad transfers to help out, but Tuiaki failed at finding and developing talent. Glad we have someone new to coach up this crop so they don’t utterly fail as much as the previous crop of DL.

Had you read my initial post, you would have actually seen that I made the point that I am more optimistic with the new coaching staff.
