Anyone else really concerned about Hoover being gone?

Now this really hurts me to say as an App State guy (and also because I saw Hoover light up my team in high school for about 250 yards), but does anyone think our running game is going to take some time to get over Hoover being gone?

I think Hoover might finally get the credit he deserves when our running game suffers a bit. Granted, our O-line and backs are complete studs, but I think Hoov was a big part of that combination.

How's Fiametta looked in camp? I was there last year and he's a physical speciman.... I just hope it translates into performance.

No. Not at all. Hoover was a great panther. It was time for an upgrade by going younger. 10 years from now lets hope we ask the same thing about Fiametta.

It may have been a good move I guess....mainly injury-wise. He has certainly taken a pounding over the years.

Oh, and while I'm at it:

Don't fire Fox.

Don't change to a 3-4 defense.

It's too hot to wear all black.

I still have a Delhomme jersey, so bring him back. I'm too cheap to buy a Moore jersey.

Peppers should have gone to the NBA instead.

There. Now I don't have to start 5 more threads tonight.

Fiametta may play better with the experience from last year added with the fact that he will "own" the FB role, and be expected to perform as a starter, and not with the beloved Hoov over his shoulder, waiting for the next snap.

I hope to see him blowing up holes for Double Trouble all season!

      Testing Huddle Consensus

      By MHS831 · Posted

      It is ridiculous how some people react when someone disagrees with their opinion. First of all, this is before the combine and there is a lot more info coming out.  If you have locked in on a pick you are a doofus.   That is right.  A doofus.  No, that was a test.  We have fake photos, names, and we are on the internet.  It takes zero courage to call people names--see? There are people who make solid points and back them with facts.  It is not important that you change someone else's mind or prove yourself to be right; it is important that we consider all viewpoints.  WRONG THINKING: I don't give a crap if Snow agrees with me--he likes being wrong, pathetic loser. CORRECT THINKING: Snow is not in agreement with my position.  What are his reasons?  Do I still believe my position?  Hmmm.  He has some good points.  I see his reasons.  I will stay with my position, but I appreciate the mature exchange of thinking. At no point should I attack him personally because that is what turds do in sanboxes when they are 6. It is not my position to focus on him--I should focus on his position.  I am not a child. This is sarcasm, but unfortunately, necessary.

      I Think Ashton Jeanty will be the Pick at #8

      JFC, what is wrong with the Huddle. Someone says Hurney drafted CMC and there is no correction? Our last good draft in 2017 was Gettleman drafting CMC, Samuel, Moton and Butker. Marty took over after the draft. All I know is that we have been so bad at drafting from 2018 to 2024 that people can’t even remember what we did in 2017 and before. All that said, I 100% promise to move my fandom if we take Jeanty at 8.

      Considering that currently they will not pick again until pick 57 one would think that every player in-between could be in play as well. If they really want a pure edge rusher they will pick the best available after Carter. You may be on to something there MHS.
