Enough Receivers?

Postby Duke Blue Blood » Tue Sep 02, 2008 11:07 pm

I finally broke down and watched the game. Thank goodness for TIVO and the ability to fast forward.

In June's offense (as we all know) he has a a lot of 4 receiver sets. In order to execute this offense, we need four GOOD receivers. If these are really our best four, what happens with an injury. Just seems like we don't even have a solid four, much less any depth..

Sanders is a stud - we know that.

Robinson sure looks like one - I wouldn't be surprised at all if he surpasses Sanders as the team's touchdown receptions leader this year.

I agree, Haynes looked good on the touchdown, and I think he made another catch or two, didn't he? Also saw him run someone over on a downfield block.

Cole Beasley got a lot of hype in the preseason - I'm eager to see him get the ball in his hands.

B.J. Lee had some moments in the preseason, and we all know about his wheels.

Coach Jones keeps talking up Terrance Wilkerson - will be interesting to watch.

I won't say that's enough - a team can NEVER have "enough" - but it's a good start.
Rise up, Mustang Nation!
Go SMU!

JJ likes to carry 8 recievers on the two deep, with younger guys on the 2nd team. He likes to have young recievers up to speed with the system, reads, and routes as the offense evolves with scripted and option reads ~20% each year.
