1. Evans
2. Lewis
3. Moses
4. Allen
Two out of:
Wilson, Hamilton, Jennings, Benton, Cowan, Miller, Davis
5. Wilson
No idea which one I would guess for the last spot.
6. Probably Cowan I recall the Staff thought he could be a potential alpha on defense one day during his recruitment. Then again, much like Evans, Ben Davis has all the tools if he figures it out. I dunno. Bama loaded !

That is something that I feel we could be in short supply of this year.

My biggest compliment to Wills is he is very violent when he puts his hands on you. Womack was beat a time or two on the edge. He is by no means bad but Wills looks very good. Just my .10 cents

If you had told me he would start at RT over Leatherwood back in February I may have laughed. Not that I didn't think Wills was a beast but I really thought Leatherwood was easily the second best lineman in America behind Sarell. I thought Wills had a shot to play if he moved to guard. Good for Wills. I am excited for the kid.

Any word on practice today?

They didn't practice, basically just did a walk thru today

So where does that leave Leatherwood? Jonah is entrenched at LT and Wills is about to take over at RT. Can he move to guard? If not, I smell a transfer to UF coming. We almost lost him to the Gators anyway.
What happened to Richie Pettibon? He was looking very promising as a freshman, got hurt, and he's disappeared since.

I'm really kinda stunned at Wills rise to the top. He's come in and jump over a whole bunch of talented guys in like two months time.
He must be really really good. Weve got a logjam along the Oline. The competition to be second string is really tight. I hope we steam roll a lot of teams this year and our 2nd unit gets to gel. I loved watching Blake Sims and Kenyon Drake run the zone read in mop up duty.
If Saban put in an entire second team offense, it would be made up of all 4 and 5 stars except maybe Womack, assuming Wills starts. Hell, Saban could probably win ten games with that group and the starting defense.

Pettibon getting injured sucked, it made him lose out on playing time last year and put him behind a lot guys.
Now he's stuck among the plethora of C/G types...

In warms ups for the scrimmage this sat, Leatherwood was at the 2nd String LT position.
The line up was
Leatherwood, Warmack, kennedy, Hass, Wills
Obviously with Wills taking reps with 1 team when it actually started.

He is just very violent and controls people well with his hands. Even people in the stands who don't know much about football were commenting on how angry he looked.

I think I saw where the staff said Wills can play any position on the line so it might be that Wills moves inside and Leatherwood stays outside.

How does the line look in terms of discipline? It seems they have been prone to mental mistakes/penalties over the last few years and could be very dominant if that was cleaned up.

In before he wasn't given a fair shake and is actually the best.
