How concerned are you about the LB's if Lanning is penciled in as the #1 right now at MLB?
I was concerned at the MLB spot before so nothing has really changed. Really hoping Harvey has a break out year because he could be a really good player
Our coaches don't seem too concerned about it because they didn't recruit the position very hard. We only brought in two true linebackers, and both were in-state high schoolers. Rather than the typical middle and two outside arrangement, our defense is evolving towards shared responsibilities with the "Star" & "Leo" hybrid positions.
This staff does have a penchant for stockpiling defensive linemen & d-backs, however.
Wow, you really need to stop trying to evaluate college athletes, you are really bad at it. 1 out of 6 predictions in this post alone were correct. Even for baseball that is a really, rally bad average.

This made me laugh. I hope we can complete some passes this year, I can't imagine if it actually gets worse.
Our O-line is going to be very solid this year. They are an extremely well coached group that improved as the season went along. That was without Campos who will make the line that much better. You will find out in the Fall when we drop close to 40 on you.
We're in better shape than we were last year at this time with O-Linemen. Not concerned.
That'd be pretty cool, but I'd say not. No need for it. Lanning would be a solid TE, too, but we also don't need that either.
Yeah, when I think of programs that have no need for help along the OL and at TE, ISU immediately comes to mind.
We recruited the hell out of both for two years, filling up the spots is no issue. Last season seemed to prove that the staff is highly skilled at developing OL talent (I mean, lines are kinda Campbell's thing in football life; Toledo often had strong lines as well), so I'm honestly not too worried about it right now. I'm just hoping we have less growing pains at the beginning of the season than we did last season.
