Should still be a good group, but they need an edge threat to develop, or Tenuta will have to blitz like crazy. A part of me wonders if Valles can add a bit more weight ...<br /><br />That said, good for Harold. Strike while the iron is hot, and he's coming off a good year. The situation here was dysfunctional for most of his time here, and yet, he still developed and matured into a legit NFL prospect. He should be, assuming a good workout season, a 2nd-4th round pick type of guy. I'm not sure if he profiles as a starter at the next level, as he's not a base 4-3 end, so if he does project as a starter at the next level, it'd be more as a rush backer type in a 3-4 set. Either way, he should provide some value as a pass rusher in the Not For Long league.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7193007137551439191.post-88973264669041263362014-12-11T07:16:41.066-05:002014-12-11T07:16:41.066-05:00The frozen corpses of fans who made this trek with...The frozen corpses of fans who made this trek without a store of victories to provide nourishment through these dark days are a constant reminder of our favored circumstances. <br /><br />That, and the fact that our football team sucks. <br /><br />SSFRAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7193007137551439191.post-39143483746233120972014-12-09T07:58:15.986-05:002014-12-09T07:58:15.986-05:00One of the things that changed after that crucial ...One of the things that changed after that crucial timeout was that Bennett put Evan Nolte back on the floor. I was really impressed with Nolte's defensive intensity -- moving his feet, keeping his hands up, poking at the ball. We didn't see that aggressiveness from him last year. If he keeps that up, he's got solid minutes in the rotation, regardless of whether his three is falling, and even with DA back.<br /><br />It's nice to look at our bigs and see just how many different matchup problems we can give opposing teams. And you know we've got a coach that will take full advantage.<br /><br />Sucks about the women's soccer final. Sampson never got a national championship either. Brian came damn close though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
