Re: A10 Outlook for 2024-25
NYG, 4 more starter quality players would be great from our perspective. But, I don’t think 4 more would come here as it would be too crowded for PT. Plus, not sure we can even afford them. Also, yes it is too late for one of the core starters we have now to enter the portal since it’s closed but b...

True. But I’m referring to Johnson going to Georgetown. He was there working and un-announced at Georgetown for a while before “blurry picture” type leak escaped. Yeah but everyone knew he was gone, or could be gone. Was reported over a month ago. There are people that know who this guy is, but won...

The packline is just a wrinkle of man to man defense. Sure, time in the system helps with the nuances, but it's not even as complicated as zone, which people scream about us not playing. Our defense didn't suck this year because we played packline or Archie forgot how to coach defense. Hell, our de...
