My scenario with that included us getting Hawkins and Durham. Portal backs are likely happening

Could a standout game from Michael Terry change our mind about Jaden Baugh? Even though NIL is not caped funds are still limited, but that could change with Donor fundraising and aggression. Question for Board assuming these are on the table after a good Terry/Simon performance, which core offensive group would you want (FYI OL is consistent with each group) Don’t argue about if these are even possible. They may or may not be. I just want to see sentiment. Group 1: RB- Baugh RB- Hawkins RB- Simon RB- Terry RB- Cooper WR - Wingo WR- Mosley WR- Singleton WR- Livingstone Group 2: RB- Durham RB- Hawkins RB- Terry RB- Simon RB- Cooper WR- Coleman WR- Wingo WR- Mosley WR- Livingstone Essentially I’m saying Durham plus Coleman is same price as Baugh and Singleton

Brown is a stud but a one year rental. It all depends on his goals with the building of the program.

Duece is a good player. Massive loss for Auburn. Hes a perfect QB for a first year coach to build around

We can agree on the OL 🤝 Definitely needs to be upgraded. There is also no NIL Cap and it’s not enforced. If we want to get RB, OL, and WR plus whatever else we can. It’s a function of fundraising and external NIL deals. We will see how aggressive we get. I’m fairly positive we will land a Singleton level or better WR so we will all be happy 🤘🏻

I think Mosley can be really good. Does he have the speed of Golden? Maybe a full offseason can do him well. I think Wingo can be a dynamic player. He is extremely inconsistent. Parker Livingstone is a good deep threat but not much more. If he was WR4 then I’d be solid. We need true guaranteed WR1 IMO especially in a big year for Sark and Arch. You can’t bank on “I think the WR will be good” but you need to “guarantee the WR will be good”. Of course injuries can happen. If you have seen some posts, I said you may have to make some moves and push some guys out the door. I’d prefer to keep Mosley and Wingo but some guys seem like JAGs to me. Maybe the Bowl game Will change my mind.

lol happy to let mods here chime in since they can see information 🤣🤣 definitely not him/her. I just have a strong passion about our WRs. Was extremely disappointed in them and don’t see a a championship level group. Hope I’m wrong

Read my post above. I said OL is number 1 need. Indiana also didn’t play 5 top 12-15 teams. My difference in opinion is that I think our WRs are mid and not championship level. Wingo can be but you can’t rely on that. If he is your number 2… then heck yeah There is also no true NIL cap. That is separate from revenue share. If there is some donor pushback on amount then make room by pushing JAGS out the door. Also there is also a rumor going around, some WRs on the roster are waiting on Coleman’s decision. Id also be extremely happy with Eric Singleton (if that rumor that he is entering too is true)

WR is an extreme need. This is where my pushback is. Our WRs are extremely mid and even Bobby says WR is a need. I am aware OL is likely need number 1. However, if you want to maximize Arch you also need legit WRs. Sark has also only won win with round 1/2 WRs. We might have a day 2 pick (just maybe in Wingo) Until he proves he can be Kirby Smart, then give him all the weapons we need for both Sark and Arch

We have different opinions. I’ve said what I believe and even some of the mods said better WRs likely leads to more wins. Coleman would be great but I’d also be happy with a guy like Singleton, Williams, TJ Moore, Marsh, etc. We have one WR where teams have to game plan for (and he is extremely inconsistent). Two changes a lot.

I understand that WR was not necessarily the root issue of those games. OL was also struggling because teams could stack the box because our WRs couldn’t get consistent separation or win 50/50 balls. Coleman would have changed the outcome of one of those games.

Well even the mods here agree that a better WR for likely gets us 1-2 more wins. Ohio State or Florida. Picture having to guard Wingo and Coleman. That opens up a lot

This has my attention.

Never said we have to get him just to prevent Aggy from getting him. I’d prefer not to play him at Aggy though. However, M&A transactions can happen for defensive purposes. Coleman is likely good enough for 1-2 more wins. If we had Coleman this year we likely have 1-2 more wins and are in the playoff. This is a big year for both Aggy and Sark. Elko is heading into year 3 with a very solid year 2. I think the team that has the better year will regain all momentum and Coleman could be the difference. (Yes Aggy is very likely to efff it up too regardless) And when I mention cutting players, that happens now… Baxter was among others. Coleman is 3x the WRs Parker and Mosley are. If you have to make room for Coleman, then you have to do what you can. I prefer to keep them I hope you understand. Our WRs are extremely mid and not championship level as a whole. Coleman is HIM. I do understand that we have other needs like OL, etc. We will make that work if we have to

Caden Durham and Hawkins plus Coleman would also feed families
