BUS: Where's the Beef?

Postby PerunaPunch » Wed Dec 09, 2009 12:00 pm

Defensive front three of Taylor Thomas (6'6, 290* lbs.), Marquis Frazier (6'3, 291*), Margus Hunt (6'8, 282*) backup up in the middle by Coulter (6'1, 270* lbs)

*Added 10 offseason lbs to Thomas and Frazier, 15 to Margus (who looks skinny at 267) and 5 to Coulter.

I wouldn't bet on running up the middle against that...

All of that information is good and correct.
Last year we were small at 220-258-260-215 up front at times.
Mason did a great job with what we had this year.

QUESTION:
Now go to the second team and give heights and weights??????
THEN, what if we have an injury????

We need two NG at 300 and then another big DE.

Back in the day ( I am 49) we had two O-lines that played 1st and 3rd QTR and another for 2nd and 4th.
Had D-line that sub'ed out every 8 plays.
You win and lose on the line and we need more for the D-line.

We are better but not enough to be satisfied.

More and better, More and better
Go MUSTANGS.

No but we do need men of more that average size and quickness that are tough as nails.

Remember, this is SMU and we expect all player to actually graduate.
No UT thugs please. I say that because I read that 23 % of the players on the last National Championship team... EVER got a degree.

It is important to me.

Yes academic ability is important, but size is important as well. Need big uglies. Don't care if they're pretty if they're big and can pass their classes.
