Dang, we'd be sitting pretty if that UCF DT didn't settle for Tech immediately. Need to lure someone that level in for the spring.

If we had grabbed him, then got Kanu, we'd be 100% set for the season. Especially you add in January who is expected to be a bigger contributor this year and we hope Hills can take that leap, like Baker wants him to. Then you add in the very talented 3 Fr? The room is looking great under Baker, considering it was left pretty bare for him and then we lost a lot of attrition in the portal.

Quick, don't look it up, but who played the most at nose in 2023, Sweat or Murphy?

I assume Murphy based on your question. But they're both awesome players who had clear NFL potential regardless. Murphy was making noise his first freshman camp. Great eval. Herman sucked in a lot of ways but had stacked DT and RB rooms when he got the boot.

Correct.  It was Murphy, even though he was 50+ pounds smaller.  Most think it was Sweat, and he did play there some.  Just one example of how the three and 1 technique tackles are often more interchangeable than commonly believed.

He was lacking at least self control.  May well have not been a miss.

Oscar Giles recruited all those DL through Collins and Broughton.

Bo did not recruit at all.

Especially when they're as strong and compact and use great leverage like Murphy does / did.

Yep, Giles had quite the run of studs at the position under Herman.
