great piece here.
Agree on the RB staff. Denson could get something out of nothing, I have no issues with his player development. What was grossly obvious was his inability to recruit the position. I do think part of that was they wanted him to open up a pipeline to Florida, where we have now learned the Virginia's/ Carolina's/ Georgia territories are a bit more profitable and where we should have been spending our time.
Should Tyree end up Irish, you have to tip your cap first to Lance Taylor, but yet again to Kelly. Talk about a transformation. Overhauled the staff and has hit a homerun at every position- key part in that success was having the vision to retain Mike Elston. Taylor was the perfect hire at the perfect time, big boy recruiter who can get it done- and looks like he has with Tyree.
Curious on what happens at RB the rest of the 2020 cycle. Was part of the deal with Tyree that we wouldn't bring in another back? or is there wiggle room to grab another back to compliment Tyree's skill set?
Either way fingers crossed!
Go Damn Irish!
