That's also a list of the numerous losses that we have incurred. Notice how may of them actually had eligibilty left. :cool:

[JerryBeeds]

I know most people would automatically say Troy, but I think Shropshire is our biggest loss...

[Tidetalk]

How many starters does SC lose on each side of the ball?

[JerryBeeds]

John Strickland will be a big loss as well, we need a solid center.

Strickland wasn't bad per say, he was a little slow getting of the line. :cool:

[JerryBeeds]

Neo, do you know who our center is going to be.

That's a negative captain.... :cool:

I've heard Fran Pearson or Chris White. I've also heard that SOS isn't very impressed with either one of their performances up to now.

I say Boyd because he would have been world class in Stevie's offense. The humanity!

We may get him back, so don't fret... ;)

Ditto that.

Although Williamson was the best player we lost, I will miss Rathe the most. I really wanted to see him play this year. He deserves a shot

[HSVTider]

From an outsider's point of view, losing Boyd is a pretty big loss considering that fast slasher type backs do really well in the Fun 'n' Gun system. He could have easily been a 1000 yrd rusher this year..maybe more. Good luck.

He chewed their butts all spring. They can hike the ball, just cannot stand up to block the noseguard. :eek: :D

Losing Boyd is/was tough if he does not return, but luckily we have some depth at TB. I also agree he possibly could have been at least a 1,000 yd. all purpose back. :)

I will have to disagree cockinorlando (did you change your name from Orlando cock?). I believe Rathe was overrated. He just tossed the ball up for grabs too many times. The Kentucky game makes me sick. I am glad he got the victory but he almost gave it away enough times to make me old! He almost threw 2 interceptions on the winning drive. Both prevented only because the Kentucky Defender dropped the pass. It could have gotten ugly quickly. I am glad he is gone so we can focus on the future as opposed to these 1-2 yr. Qbs we have had lately (Jenkins, Pinkins, and Newton). If nothing else we need consistency!
