Instact Impact Player

[theclassickiller]

what incoming player (or sophomore who hasnt played a major role) will have the biggest impact next year?

i think its going to be chris watt. i think he could be what we always hoped sam young would be. he will anchor a line waiting for a leader to step up and show intensity and be aggressive. even though he will be a freshman he will have an instant impact and i think we will seem him play from day one.

i also think tyler stockton could have an huge impact on the defensive line. he just looks scary as hell and ive only heard good things about him.

 

[NDOM]

Manti Te'o, E.J. Banks, Cierre Wood, Or Carlo Calabrese. One of those if not all of them are gonna be good.

 

[GO IRISH!!!]

Shaq, Wood, and Teo. Possibly Motta as well.

 

[Irishlew]

i think Cierre will almost certainly be our return man this year. Te'o will start from day one. Motta should be a big help on special teams with potential to get PT at LB. Stockton is a beast and will get PT as well. I believe Carlo, Shaq, and most of our freshman will be learning from the bench this season. But Shaq could earn PT in the spring if he out plays Walker and Goodman.

Impact player? Me... in a girl's dorm room. I guarentee a quick pitch to loosen up the inside defense. After a little play action, I'll be able to quickly penetrate the (vertical) goal line... for a quick, quick score.

 

[NeuteredDoomer]

But how many times will you be able to score in an hour?

Depends. If she keeps playing the prevent defense, I'll just keep handing it off to my backs with good hands and fingers to plow into her line. Once she starts to stack up against the pounding, I toss in a little quick checkoff over the top, hitting her up the seams trying to penetrate into a different hole.............. in her defensive scheme. Eventually she will break... and I will do more than pull out a Sharpie (and CrackerJacks) in the Ezone.

You need a lot of depth to be able to do that. Creativity. Misdirection. Be in good shape with lots of stamina.

Butt a lot of DEPTH. Then towards the end, you can shove it up the ass.

True... but if she sees it comming, I will end up with nothing short of a painful turnover and be run out of the stadium. I won't have another chance of comming onto her field until the revival of our now exs rivalry next year.

Usc versus Oregon State. If I were doing commentary I would say "and the trojans penetrate deep into beaver territory" LOL LOL LOL LOL

 

[theclassickiller]

i dont get it... someone please explain!

 

[GOLDENISTHYTATE]

Nicholas Tausch and Ben Turk - our new kicker and punter!!! It would be fantastic to not have to be nervous about 20-yard fgs and 30-yard punts.

 

[TDHeysus]

Offense - Watt / Defense - Manti (I hope Zeke Motta turns out to be one those Florida recruits that I always hear about)

in addition to the implied BIG expectations from Floyd, Tate, Clausen.


Cierre Wood could ignite some competition with Armando Allen, that in itself can be a positive impact.

Yep.

 

[The Polish Irishman]

I say KLM and Filer.

 

[ndlb41]

Brandon Newmon, Sean Cwynar, KPL, Hafis Willams. I think all will make a big impact this year.

 

[GO IRISH!!!]

I pray that someone along both lines makes a HUGE impact this year. We need to DL to cause havoc and, more than anything, we need the OL to start playing dominant football. Someone needs to step up and be the man. I am really pulling for Sam Young to live up to his potential this season. I really hope he can cap his career with a huge senior season.

 

[Clausen2Kamara]

KLM and Te'o on D and Wood and Shaq on O

 

[fightinirish68]

i hear a lot about klm but hes kinda small for the end position

 

[irish4ever]

Brandon Newmon, Sean Cwynar, KPL, Hafis Willams. I think all will make a big impact this year.

KPL??? Kapron Lewis-Moore???

 

[fightinirish68]

kapron lewis moore..KPL duh haha

 

[Clausen2Kamara]

KLM will be a big contributor next year IMO..

 

[HawaiianIrish]

Watts on Offense and Te'o on Defense

 

[ndlb41]

ya,ya i screwed that up!! I meant KLM! sorry, i am so ashamed!!

 

[IrishAddiction]

Hafis Williams on defense end, and probably steve filer as a LB.
