The Victors

Hill himself as compared his scheme to Minter 2023, that's the comp I've been making since he was hired (unfortunately On3 deleted all my articles) Current B1G, Indiana is the closest I guess with a multiple 4-2-5.*

• Not sure I have much new but I'm deep in football mode right so Q&A if anyone has any.* - By gbmcq August 6, 2026 at 03:18:46 PM
  • Sounds like there's some high end WR/QB recruits waiting to see how our offense looks (Wade, Guerrant, Bidden etc.). Do you have a sense of what baseline expectations would be and what would be considered enough improvement? - By Ks August 6, 2026 at 05:14:47 PM
    • You can apply fan eyes to this narrative, does the offense look efficient, fun? I hate to sound cynical but if the money is right, and the offense is as good as 21-23, they'll come. Or they'll go to the highest bidder no matter what.* - By gbmcq August 6, 2026 at 05:27:01 PM
  • Hows Staehling doing at LB?* - By TBW1 August 6, 2026 at 05:06:09 PM
    • Now that he's healthy he's getting a lot more talk. Something I've noticed with this staff is they do not project out with the depth chart, if you were gone in the spring, you have work your way up. I don't know how they'll use Bowles, NOB, Taylor and him yet, I'm not great with Hill LB scheme.* - By gbmcq August 6, 2026 at 05:25:13 PM
  • My sleeper pick for this roster is Vallejo - I know it's early but any vibes on him in particular on the DL. Hoping to hear similar to Mason Graham. * - By django August 6, 2026 at 04:40:53 PM
    • His tape screamed Mason Graham in style, but he is not coming in with that kind of hype. I do think he'll play this year, Davis too.* - By gbmcq August 6, 2026 at 05:23:51 PM
  • What is your guesstimate on passing yards, rushing yards and TD/TO for BU for the year?* - By TBW1 August 6, 2026 at 03:50:17 PM
    • 2700 passing, 800 rushing, 4/1 TD/INT* - By gbmcq August 6, 2026 at 04:32:11 PM
  • Does the new staff allow any press attendance at designated practices? If so, impressions...* - By onb August 6, 2026 at 03:42:32 PM
    • Not really, and no cameras allowed for anyone who is there. I have someone who will be there Saturday so I'll be able to have impressions then.* - By gbmcq August 6, 2026 at 04:30:41 PM
  • Regardless of how OL personnel shakes out & actual production level, are there indications that BU *trusts* them more? (ie, That much of the “happy feet” he was starting to display last season has been corrected?)(m) - By LKLIII August 6, 2026 at 03:31:26 PM
    • I honestly don't know how to answer this without true game film. What I will say is I've been told the offense for Bryce will be 1st and 2nd reads, largely at levels with a check down, and he has an internal clock before he runs. They also like him out of the pocket and throwing on the run.* - By gbmcq August 6, 2026 at 04:29:26 PM
  • which team last season do you believe JD Hill's scheme is most like? - By Adamantiumblue August 6, 2026 at 03:26:44 PM
    • Hill himself as compared his scheme to Minter 2023, that's the comp I've been making since he was hired (unfortunately On3 deleted all my articles) Current B1G, Indiana is the closest I guess with a multiple 4-2-5.* - By gbmcq August 6, 2026 at 04:27:28 PM
  • who is sarting on the DL? How are the snaps divided amongst the backups?* - By Arctic August 6, 2026 at 03:26:34 PM
    • JHD probably doesn't play starter reps Week 1, but JHD, Brandt, Nichols at DE, Pierce and Etta at DT. Edokpayi, Marshall, Meadows will rotate at DE and DT is pretty wide open right now but Palepale, Lea'ea, Kanka, and the freshman have been spoken about the most.* - By gbmcq August 6, 2026 at 04:22:27 PM
  • Which coaches have the most/least soothing voices?* - By brick August 6, 2026 at 03:23:29 PM
    • Soothing, Jim Harding or Micah Simon. Not sure there's a bad one?* - By gbmcq August 6, 2026 at 04:20:29 PM
  • who scores the first touchdown?** - By kal August 6, 2026 at 03:22:18 PM
    • I was going to say Marshall before I saw your answer.* - By gbmcq August 6, 2026 at 03:29:26 PM
  • Does this staff remind you much of Harbaugh's staff? General competence, etc.?* - By toffee August 6, 2026 at 03:21:49 PM
    • I guess there are two lines of thought here. - By gbmcq August 6, 2026 at 03:28:56 PM
