    Huh? D-2? Must not have had a full offer from Davis?

    My feeling is that the defensive JC guys we got last year are representative of what we can get from JC and since they’re in the running to play more next year, along with returning players and red shirts; does it make sense to recruit more players for just a couple of years? We’re not lacking players, we are lacking all league type of players and we are going to have to grow our own by recruiting freshmen and developing them. Obviously there are exceptions but we shouldn’t bring in large JC classes.

    I understand the Big Sky is tough, but we're something like #115 in defense in the FCS. I don't think moving up to #100 will cut it. Is it the players, coaches, scheme? Tucker had big success at the JC level, but we rarely stopped anybody last year. And now the competition increases.

    We need to do something. Unless we want to conclude it was just a youth issue. I'm not saying large, but how about a pass rusher or solid DT?

    We need to hope Dr, Mike’s source was right about the scout team. There are some redshirt DLs. Maybe one of our freshmen DBs can win a job. Some underclassmen have to step up. Our returning starters need to improve, Our coaches need to do better. I just wouldn’t expect us to land a transfer who is going to start for us. Maybe I’m wrong.

    We seem to have a solid group of Sophomores, a huge bunch. But #110 or #115 in defense is way down. I'm hoping improved special teams play helps, and maturity. But we have a long way to go.
  • Riveraggie

    Looking on the bright side, our defense had its moments. There is some talent returning, plus all the underclass men, redshirts and freshmen.
    I think we can be a lot better than 110 to 115. If not it’s coaching. But our coaches have records for success. I’d like to see improvement in special teams kick coverage. Little improvements can add up. Offense will be better.

    No Bob Foster here, but I hope / think ST and a better pass rush would help. And tackling.
  • Riveraggie

    I agree with you on the need for improvement. I hope last years recruiting class has a few additional players who can really contribute because we brought in 30 guys. We'll find out soon. If you look at both last year's and this year's additions, we have recruited every position. I hope we hear some good reports out of spring practice

    Hawkins already lauded Mr. Perryman, and Cam Trimble was supposed to be a BEAST... Fabian Hunkin (?) Is also a big man. Frosh LB Airey (20 tackles) and Duncan (30 tackles) had an impact... on offense we should see Harrell back at WR (6'2") and Carson Crawford.

    Edited.

    All the better that we landed a local stud considering the only other QB we still had an offer out on got his preferred walk on to Alabama bumped up to a full ride offer :-O

    This kid has the potential to be an outstanding QB for the Aggies. He completed 65% of his passes in his senior year at Christian Brothers for 3100 yards and 55 TD's and rushed for 650 yards. Welcome to #shredville!

    Does anyone have any observation regarding Gunner Faulk in comparison with Hunter Rodriguez, another “local” to Sacramento Area QB, but with one year at American River? Both had great HS stats, both similar size.

    I honestly didn't even know ARC had a good football team until I heard about Hunter Rodrigues' accomplishments. Of course I follow community college football not at all so that's to be expected.
  • movielover

    From tape, it looks like Gunner is extremely mobile. Over 600 yards rushing in one year. I thought I read Rodriguez was mobile, but I think his rushing numbers at ARC were low. There may have been an injury in HS or beginning of ARC that impacted that. Need a better source. I think Gunner transferred in from out of state which may be why he didn't have more attention.

    FYI, WR recruit Lance Babb*** has followed our Doss updates.

    I know there just the tapes, but i agree with movie that we may have got ourselves a real jem in Gunner Faulk. I went back and looked at some of the sac bee stories on him and it is obvious tha he is not only a gifted athlete, but a kid with a lot of moxie and character. He is a kid who moved around a lot because of his military dad. That’s a tough way to grow up and yet he has succeeded both in the classroom and on the field. He comes to CB as a senior and is voted captain. That says he is much more than just being a good football player; he’s a leader. Very good job by Hawk to land this young man!

    From being QB poor for several years, great to have several young guns in the program. We wish them all well.
