True fish generally dont start and when they do it's usually because of need, not so much because they're ready


That said, some guys will get in a little here and there. I don't mean an obvious pick like 5 star Jerome Myles here but someone a little further down the pecking order based on rankings.



My pick is 3 star Landon Rink

He's already listed as a hefty fireplug at 6ft 2 294 lbs on the roster. He's aggressive, physical and just has damn good instincts for the game. Plus he's at a position where we need rotation. I can see him getting some play time. Normally OL, QB and DL are my least likely to see the field as a true fish but I really liked his film, and he's filled out physically

TK Norman at WR might be a little surprise and get some productive pt.

There's a difference between needing a true freshman or him just being a true freshman stud and making an impact. I would have no problem with the second one.

Jerome Myles, not so much a surprise that he does contribute, but more so how much. I think he emerges as Reeds go-to target.

We've had way too many guys make the freshman all American team over the years.

Agreed, what's that saying about how you lose one game per freshman that you have to start? I don't know if that applies to redshirt freshmen as well, but thinking about last year - Marcel and Dezz Ricks come to mind. I don't remember if Terry Bussey started at any point. But this year, projected starters should include 12 seniors, 7 juniors, and 3 sophomores. We have the most veteran team we've had in quite a while.

That said I do see Marco Jones and Jerome Myles making a name for themselves this season.

Salmon! But in a bind I'll go with Halibut.

Need Armstrong and two DTs to absolutely step up (depth/rotations). Can the fish DTs get strong enough to withstand the wear/tear of SEC football (typically difficult to do unless a 5-star man-child, and that's not always a given), as they played against inferior OL in HS.

Agree that Marco J. (as a straight pass rusher...hoping he improves on setting the edge as we were awful at that last year) and potentially Myles (need to see routes/cutting vs. competition) will be the easiest for many of the casual fans in the stands to take notice.

I liked his film. Could be a good player.

Rashad Johnson on defense. Jamarion Morrow on offense.
