Today's item: the secondary
No group got more scrutiny this year (and last). They had some terrific games this year. They had some horrific games this year, too.
The pros:
* Still very young. This year was a true freshman, several true sophomores, and, board favorite (No. 11) Taylor (a junior).
* Very experienced group heading in to 2023
* Very athletic and fast
* Tort thinks very highly of this group
The cons:
* Remeber that game in Erie?
* Remember the game 72 hours ago?
* Lots of blown coverages this year -- especially early.
* Some killer (stupid) personal fouls at extremely bad times ... happened a lot, actually.
* Good QBs in dry conditions shredded them this year (ESU, Gannon, Shepherd Rd2).
The top 9 DBs return in 2023. That's a lot. But, is this a group that needs some upgrade this off-season, or, are you comfortable with a year older version in 2023 (when the league will have a lot less big time QBs)?
Secondary. Are you buying or selling what the CO-OP shirt slinger is selling?
Regarding Taylor, he can be a great player if he just focuses on playing football and doesn’t get caught up in the other nonsense. In my opinion, it was a wash this year in terms of his positive contributions versus negative. That’s not good enough for someone with his talent. He needs to learn it’s a “we” game and not a “me” game. If he can mature and do that the entire group will be better. If he can’t, I’d rather not see him out there.

So he doesn’t know how to win with class. Duly noted.
What goes around will eventually come around and hopefully you Swifties will take what you dish out.

Well said Nation, I got more respect for a guy that chirps all the time than one who talks smack only when he up…#30 SU great player no doubt but very unlikeable that’s for sure.

The secondary is fine numbers wise, one more transfer corner in order to move Taylor to Safety is there wish list.
If they do add a stud CB and move Taylor to Safety, who is getting bumped?
I agree with you ... I think Taylor (No. 11 for those curious) would be a great Safety.
