Pretty much what I'm expecting, though with Arie at RG and Steen at LG, and Collins over Sunseri full time.
And Adam Griffith will probably be in the Kicker platoon with Foster...

I'm actually thinking LC26 may return kicks.
Will be FB, but Nuss told OJ Howard he'll play H-Back this year, and I don't see Fowler being there over OJ when he's already playing RB and FB.
Ehhh, not sure Chad can beat out Arie.
Expect LC.
I think it'll be Fulton. If John doesn't get turf toe against A&M he probably plays outside since that game in Nickel and Dee plays Star. Fulton looked really good this year and was just as aggressive at the line as Dee was. Geno will play Star imo, though he could start in base and slide down in Nickel/Dime. I think Jarrick Williams starts at Money too.

I'll sacrifice a goat right now if it means not having to have Foster on all kicks.

I found it interesting that he was one of the deep backs in the next to last kickoff Monday night. He's definitely a candidate to return kicks next year.

Hopefully Depriest will be less tentative next year.

Kelly seem to Able to take the center ? Has me kinda worried?
Posted on 1/9/13 at 8:57 pm to Dubosed
Yeah, Trey did look a little tentative, as you put it, this year. At times he looked like an aggressive MLB like we know he can be, but at other times he seemed a little, eh, like how I describe Belue. He doesn't always trust his eyes. A mistake a lot of first year guys make. He and CJ will tear shite up next year.

He's got good size, could add 10 or so pounds though. I think he's only at 295, and personally I like my Centers (damnit Vlachos) to be at least 305. Long arms, pretty athletic. Won't be as good as BJ in run blocking or probably pass pro either, but will likely end up being better than Vlachos when all is said and done.
The Wall of Kouandjio, should it happen, will be fun to see.

gotta see how Malcolm Faciane fits in at TE with Vogler. Was a good recruit @ TE.
Posted on 1/9/13 at 9:24 pm to AllBamaDoesIsWin
I think Kelly will be fine.Landon Collins on the other hand is going to be awesome,Mark Barron type awesome.That Cat is fast and Big.
Posted on 1/9/13 at 9:25 pm to LoneMDG
I actually forgot about Faciane. He could be the second TE behind Vogler, with OJ playing H-Back.
Does anyone else think that LC is gonna be one of the nation's most physically/athletically gifted players since PP7? 6'0" 210 sub 4.4 speed and a reported 43.5 inch vertical.
Not saying he is as good as PP7, but second behind him in that category.

Vogler took a big step up this year in being called upon to block in heavy sets. That's what really kept him off the field, his blocking skills were horrible out of high school(and he came from a Wing-T!). If you can't block, no use putting you on the field. Better athlete than BMW, but that didn't matter in this offense.
Faciane's knee set him back a lot, but should get an opportunity next season as the #2 TE in the heavy sets.

Do yall think Sylve will get any meaningful PT next year?
Posted on 1/9/13 at 9:54 pm to Tide_in_Tally
other than cooper....it's gonna be hard job for the wr's coach figuring out who to play...we are loaded at wr
Posted on 1/9/13 at 10:22 pm to Dubosed
I hope so too. To me at times he just seemed slow and wasn't able to make the right reads.
Posted on 1/9/13 at 10:28 pm to Tide_in_Tally
I think Levi brown plays RT. don't know why else we'd offer a juco lineman unless we expected him to start. Look at the past. Carpenter, Cody, Williams. All first year starters
