I would not be comfortable where they are at at the moment with that JUCO kid at one OT spot and a true freshman currently at guard with the 1's.
While I agree with you on the JUCO at OT, I don't have any qualms whatsoever with start a true freshman at guard. He won't be asked to do near as much at guard as he would have been at tackle. That made me much more nervous. Also,he has been in the program since January and went through spring practice so it's not like last week was his first time on the field in college.

Guard is obviously much easier to transition into than OT in this league (or any), you still have to take some lumps with a true freshman starting on the OL anywhere in this league with all the great DLinemen in this league.
