Just missed the cut: DE Tyler Lacy, K Alex Hale, LBs Malcolm Rodriguez and Devin Harper, DTs Israel Antwine and Jayden Jernigan, OL Taylor Miterko, CWB Logan Carter, WR Rashod Owens, OL Cole Birmingham
It’s nice, for once, to see a lot of defensive guys on this list instead of the typical “three-headed monster” nonsense (QB-RB-WR). Good diversity.
Glad to see Presley high on the list. My top ten would probably include Rodriguez somewhere. And I selfishly would also like to see WR Anderson on this list because I feel like we’ve been waiting for a breakout from him for the past two years.
Correct. It means unchanging, staying the same, etc. I agree with many other writers who have described Sanders as just the opposite. Hopefully a healthy o-line and more experience will in fact lead to consistent play at QB, but I remain skeptical.
Rattler was probably the lowest regarded/least productive on this list relative to the end of their respective season, and even he was a Big 12 Honorable Mention.
In the Big 12, conference championships ride with the QB.
All corners should be T1 for me. The defense will be fine up front. It’ll be fine in the middle. It’ll be fine over the top. But with RW gone and some fresh faces needing to step up on the outside, if those guys can’t cover we are going to get slaughtered through the air. The offense can be managed no matter who the players are with good schemes and playcalling, but the corners will be on an island and if they aren’t ready for it, opposing teams will destroy them. If they are, the defense will be dominant.

I mean his passing numbers were nearly identical in multiple categories in different years, that’s literally the definition of consistent.
Now he did play two less games last year, but they still would not be far off, and like previously mentioned being consistent is not inherently good or bad, IMO he has been consistently a solid QB. I think he takes a step forward this year
