2021 depth

[Appstate88]

I will put money on this season being one of the most dominant seasons ever for our OLine... just call it a feeling.

Navy, I agree. I believe our starting 5 can be good. Winning starts with the lineman. They must work together as one unit. Baer will be leading this group on the field. He will need to set the standard, keep them focused and be able to motivate them if things aren't going well during a game. I'm more concerned about depth. If 2-3 of the #1 Bulls get dinged up or injured during the season, I hope Cardwell will have the next man up ready to go. We need 10 OL players ready to go to dominant a season.

#1 Bulls - Hardy, Daley, Hunter, Helms, Hodges
#2 Bulls - ?,?,?,?,?

At this level, we sure do need another 5-7 for depth

Is there any intel on true freshmen? Any of them raising eyebrows or turning heads? How about Sutton’s brother Coen?
I was just looking down the roster and we have some big offensive linemen (tall)

It’s not as easy as picking the #2s on the Oline. Because if one of the starters goes down, you may have guys slide over. For instance, if you need to replace Hunter, Helms could rotate over and someone could step into the guard slot.

I made a comment in another thread about the O Line being a concern, but I didn't intend for it to be interpreted as an extreme concern. It's a common topic based on turnover and youth. That said, we have a lot of young talent at the OL position. Our recruiting has been strong. The concerns are because of experience and youth. Hopefully, these young guys are able to step up, and our starters can stay healthy so we don't have to over use the youth, but can get them some reps.

Hennigan is bullish on the oline if you listened to BGP.

everytime we have turnover on the OL this always comes up. But, yet, once the season gets going our bulls always get it done.
