Helllooo everybody and come along for the ride as I birth the Marquette Golden Eagles program on NCAA 14.
In this episode, we’ll embark on the Year 4 Offseason. Before that, however, we’ll review the happenings around the nation including the BCS National Championship game between #1 Ohio State against #2 Virginia as the Buckeyes look for their third Natty in the four seasons of this dynasty. In addition, we’ll check on All-Americans and Award Winners, and review our player statistics before jumping into the offseason.
To start, we’ll undergo the Coaching Carousel which is headlined by an opening at USC following the firing of Lane Kiffin. Marquette head coach Lance Leipold garners some interest in the Trojans head coaching vacancy, although he doesn’t receive an offer. Ultimately, Leipold decides to stay with the Golden Eagles after receiving an offer from Syracuse.
While Leipold elects to remain in Milwaukee, defensive coordinator Herbert Wright seems to be ready to step up into a head coaching role of his own as he lands with a Big 12 school. The Golden Eagles do end up with an upgrade, filling Wright’s vacancy with a former head coach.
After our most eventful Coaching Carousel yet, we’ll move into Players Leaving and Transfer Requests. Only one player has transferred away from Marquette thus far in the series, although the further we go along the more at risk we are as this roster gets deeper and more talented. We struck gold in last year’s Transfer Portal, bringing in two offensive starters for Year 5. Can the Golden Eagles get lucky yet again?
Then we’ll move into Offseason Recruiting as Marquette has two priority targets in four-star athlete Jason Smith and #41 OT Todd Kemp. Smith projects as the QB of the future although he offers flexibility as a very good receiver as well. Kemp was our top-rated OL from our recruiting board throughout the season and we expect to pour most of our resources into him to bring him to Milwaukee Five-star RB Ryan Larsen out of Kenosha, Wisconsin remains highly undecided, although Ohio State and Alabama plan on making late runs.
Entering Signing Day, Marquette holds the 27th-ranked recruiting class with 17 signees already, can they bring in their top targets and solidify their goal of a top-50 recruiting class this season?
Following the Signing Day drama, we’ll move into Position Changes as we flip guys around the roster to fill open spots and maximize the abilities of our personnel. We must fill an opening at right guard which will come down to two underclassmen, as well as solidify our linebacking corps and defensive backfield as we need to replace both starting safeties from last season.
In addition, we’ll transition JUCO FB commit Mike George to TE and see what we have in JUCO athlete Josh Terry who we have very high hopes for as a versatile, swiss army knife, and offensive weapon for the next two seasons.
With the meat and potatoes of the Year 4 Offseason behind us, we’ll get into Training Results and see who emerges as the top progression player into the Spring. Michigan State transfer Bobby Marcus progresses by +7 as he figures to take over the starting center job for the next couple of seasons. We’ll also look for junior WR Kevin Coleman to see good progression as he works up into a starting spot on the offense.
To close the episode we’ll review our roster heading into Year 5 and outline positions of need we’ll be forced to target in the next recruiting cycle.
In the next episode, we'll work through the Year 5 Preseason as we'll open with a deep dive into our Year 5 recruiting board. Marquette is now receiving widespread interest around the nation from some of the country's highest-profiled recruits and could be in for the best recruiting class of the series.
After an introduction to our Year 5 recruiting board and strategy, we'll move on to redshirts before previewing the depth chart and what to expect from this team this upcoming season. To close, we'll dissect the Year 5 schedule which is our toughest yet, featuring a bunch of ranked teams, including two SEC schools.
