Notes from the presser

[cocky0]

Hillinski is 100% after knee surgery.

Jordan Burch will play buck when he joins the team this summer. (Hammond folks cannot graduate early.)

O'Donnell Fortune will play safety.

Offesnive scheme TBD. Depends on what Bobo sees this spring. Wants to have an offensive identity by the middle of training camp.

Randrecous Davis had a stress fracture and a rod put in his leg.

Collin Hill, Mo Kaba, Nick Muse, Spencer Eason-Riddle all out of the spring with ACLs.

Dylan Wonnum, JJ Enagbare, and Tyreek Johnson out as well.

Interesting that Burch would play Buck.  I had him pegged as a DE sliding into DT type role.

He’s the ultimate pass rusher. Stand up or put hand in ground

Thanks for the summary

I’ve heard a lot of podcast guys and recruiting guys say start him at buck and see if he grows out of it vs just making him an inside guy or limiting him.  Some think he can be 260 and freak buck/edge rusher.  I think it makes sense to try him at buck and can always slide him inside down the road like we did with Melvin on passing downs.

muschamp will assist rod wilson in the spring on linebackers.  he said its completely to do with verbiage and getting on the same page with the scheme of the defense rather than a sign wilson needs help.  after the spring he hasnt committed to any position group or whether he'll coach any at all.  i wonder if its a situation where he expects to call the plays on defense so he wants to take a step back from coaching a position or if he'll go full ceo with trob calling the defense, i doubt the latter.

Bold: which is exactly what is needed.

Tough news about Davis, he's had a lot injuries in his run here. We need some guys to step up on the perimeter. They're giving Dak a swing, but hopefully OrTre S can get back in the mix, Josh Vann can do a better job catching the ball. I guess Shi will be the #1.  We have a couple of 4*'s coming in (Wyman and Powers) as freshmen.

Yep similar to the way Fowler was used at Uf. Davis absolutely cannot stay healthy, at all. Hate it for him
