Kentucky:

LT: Darrian Miller (Sr) 6'5 292
LG: Zach West (rJr) 6'4 308 -or- Nick Haynes (rFr) 6'3 319
C: Jon Toth (rSo) 6'5 298
RG: Ramsey Meyers (rFr) 6'4 305
RT: Jordan Swindle (Jr) 6'7 304

Kentucky's OL should be quite a bit better than in '13. Miller and Swindle played pretty well in '13 minus a few false starts (Swindle) and missed assignments/miscommunications (Miller). Where Kentucky was really bad was at the interior line positions.

C Jon Toth had the flu just prior to the season and played all year at 270 lbs. He was also a rFr and struggled making the correct calls at the line. LGs West, Godby and whoever else was trotted out last year just flat out sucked. They were uniformly awful (see UT game allowing 5 sacks over the LG/C positions).

'14 should show an improvement at C and the OT positions for sure. LG is still a question, but Meyers at RG has been very very good so far.

I think that in '15, UK will have its best OL in a very, very long time. UK will return a Sr Swindle at LT (3rd year starting), rJr Toth at C (3rd year starting), Meyers at RG (2nd year starting), someone at LG (West/Haynes) with at least a year of starting experience. RT will be manned by either a rSo Kyle Meadows (6'5 293) or rFr Josh Krok (6'8 308).
