Please tell me where I asked for a coaching change? So tired of people doing this. Makes it impossible to have a conversation.
As for Farniok and Jaimes...if you saw tremendous development amongst those two over the last three years, then we were watching two different teams. Jaimes was rated middle of the pack for B1G tackles THIS YEAR, after starting from day #1. I'm not saying he was bad, but lets be honest, you had to think he would have been much better by his senior year, but the grades don't show it. As for Farniok...c'mon man. He had two decent games all year. The rest were below average to abysmal.
Again, with that said, I know it takes time to develop linemen. If you're going to use those two as an example, and I know it's a small sample size, that isn't a glowing example of "development." But to be honest with you, I'm not sure Austin is the one to blame here. I think the lack of development comes more from Duval than the o line coach...whom I think can get the job done if the S&C staff isn't turning the linemens feet into cinder blocks.
Sorry, but your words are used by the never Frost crew, didnt mean to lump you in there.
I think Jaimes is a likely NFL player, but like weve seen not a true tackle.
We are getting closer to true tackle nFL talents though.
Farnioks good, but has been moved around to his detriment imo,likely would have been a decent guard with no questions on him.
He invests in himself enough here, dont be surprised seeing him playing on sunday.
As for coaching, I simply cant believe, as good as Corcoran was coming out of High school, hed play so well day one.
Same for Benhart, something going on there, they arent figuring it all on their own, and yes, they are young yet.
Players can get ruined, or stunted for a time, and the two best MR guys ight have had thise happen, yet still might make sunday.
The rest are too young to really tellon development, we are in that in between stage, where we should start seeing glimpses of whats to come.
We see some of that next year, we know theyre getting developed.
