Maguire opted to move on. Apparently giving up football.

One thing that could help develop depth is that with a new rejuvenated offense, we may actually get a big enough lead to develop some younger depth with playing time.
Go Tigers!

Extremely thin here. Better hope we stay healthy at LB.***

Philosophical question here: can a unit lack both experienced depth and lack talent according to Tnet?
I feel like I have seen several iterations of this headline over the last few years when describing a green position unit (inexperienced but talented). Hell, I think we've seen that about our WR group in the past few years, which I would argue they were both inexperienced and lacking talent.
What would it take for a positional unit to "lack talent" according to this site? And how can you tell a player is talented if they haven't played in any games? You can know that they were talented at one point in their HS career. Or you can have a freshman that comes in and wows in Spring/Fall practice before every playing a down. But if a player has not shown any talent on the field of play in college, are we just saying that their 4* ranking as a 17 year old is the reason they will be good several years later?

I have a great feeling about Woodaz. Seems like he could become a Boulware / Skaliski guy

This time last year we were all here speculating on what the defense and offense would look like for the upcoming 2022 year. I think a lot of us had our doubts about DJU. After all the poor DABO decisions on QB1 and questionable Offensive play calling we still came out with an ACC title and an Orange Bowl appearance. (any Team would see this as a great season) but as Clemson fans we expect more!!
But, in the end when we thought all may lost and we as fans were in the Transfer Portal going backwards to becoming a mediocre ACC Team, DABO came back to his senses and made a hire with a dead ringer no one ever expected in G. Riley.
Now we all have new found hope DABO is back on track after being in concussion protocol most of 2022 and is making sound decisions for 2023. We have talent in the skill positions with current and new signees, with continued team development and a new offensive look I think the future is looking bright for 2023.

The starting 3 will be really really good. TJ Dudley and Jamal Anderson will be ready to contribute IMO. I believe both of them have huge upside, especially Anderson.
It gets worrisome after that with Kobe McCloud and Dee Crayton. I don't know if either of them will be ready to go. Neither have an impressive high school tape IMO.
This is a position where it would be nice to bring in an experienced guy from the portal, similar to Hunter Johnson and Paul Tyson. Bring in a veteran that understands their role that will be asked to contribute and to teach younger players.
Too bad we don't have the scholarship numbers to make that work.
