I watched a little of their game against Alabama last night. Very athletic team that was really always in the game. They were down by 11 at half, but outscored Bama by 3 in the second half to only lose by eight to the #2 team in the country.
I agreed with the process, not the execution. 99/100 times we score from that position so I'm not going to retroactively criticize a decision I agreed with in the moment.
BUT how we don't have a QB sneak in the playbook is beyond me. All we had to do is get under center and get a single inch of a push. Giving Army a free 3-4 yards to get downhill by getting into shotgun in that scenario was absolutely a bad call.
We have 25 seniors on our roster. Here are the top contributors:
Blair Conwright: Somewhat inconsistent, but has 24 receptions for 373 yards and 4 TD's.
Ridge Texada: Top cover corner, but should be replaceable.
Jordan Brown: Third on the team in tackles and been here his entire career. I thought he would have a greater impact this year.
Damon Ward Jr.: Love him and how he plays but he can't stay healthy. Second on the team in receptions with 26 and 4 TD's. Should be replaceable.
Nick Rempert: Had a few moments but his 11 catches are replaceable.
Jake Shipley: 11 tackles and 1 sack. Replaceable.
Rod Brown: The biggest loss. I think it was pretty obvious what he can do when not doubled in a three man front, as he probably had his best overall game against Army. Will be a big loss.
Jayden Hill: Strong season in run support. We found him at a D2 school. I think we can find another or hope a youngster steps up.
Jaylen Smith: Leads the team in tackles. Has kind of come out of nowhere.
Jett Duncan: Stalwart on the OL and our most versatile lineman has he has proven he can play any position.
Gabe Blair: Hope he redshirts and returns next year. Would soften the blow of losing Duncan.
Leke Asenuga:
Landon Peterson: Started all year when healthy. Big loss.
Terrell Dawkins: Pretty solid year
Regarding C. Morris, I would be surprised if he left. I may be way off here, but I have heard the story multiple times that he loves this offense and rediscovered his love of the game here.
