Graduating:

Jared Duke
Emmanuel McCray
Pierce Burton
Patrick Junen
Evan Swindall

As far as I know, all 5 have been major contributors this year.

That leaves us with the following SO thru SR:

SR Chase Hughes
SR Aaron Morris
SR Darone Bailey
JR Ethan Hutson
JR Tyler Mt. Joy
JR Justin Bell
JR Ben Still
SO Robert Conyers
SO Austin Golson
SO Laremy Tunsil

Did the following 4 true FR play this year and are we expecting them to contribute next year?

Davion Johnson
Amon'Ta Coffee
Ty Quick
Daronte Bouldin

Obviously Rod Taylor is coming in and could possibly contribute.

Probable Starting 5:

LT Laremy Tunsil
LG Aaron Morris
C Robert Conyers
RG Justin Bell
RT Austin Golson


What do you guys think?

Morris should be a RS JR... Did he not get his medical?

And yes Taylor at G... I agree with DMagic

You apply after the season but I doubt they don't give it to him.

It'll be interesting to see where they put Golson with Gennesy coming in or vice-versa. I think it will be:

LT: Tunsil
LG: Morris
C: Bell
RG: Taylor
RT: Golson

But they could also move Golson inside and start Gennesy at RT.

I have spoken with Chuck and a few other people and they may be wrong but they say that Golson will always stay in the interior. In fact, he will give center a go along with Bell. That's why Gennesy is such a huge need.

Aaron Morris is going to give RT a shot, along with Gennesy, and Robert Conyers. If none look capable I'm sure Golson will get a look as will others.

Morris isn't a guarantee to get his hardship waiver.

I hope he does, though.

There's a lot of young talent on that o-line but not much experience. I hope they gel quickly.

2015 will be nasty, though.

The upperclassmen don't look to have many big contributors. I think our starting 5 and the first couple of backups could be better than this years group but we won't be able to take many injuries.

Really need Aaron Morris to recover and be in shape and gennesy to sign and be good

If they are not better than this year's group, we are in trouble. Wonder if we continue to recruit Gennesy and/or look for another juco oline because we could really use it.

Neal spoke with a football coach to break down the egg bowl and the reasoning we didn't go verticle more was because State was beating our front 5 with just 4 DL and dropping the other 7 into coverage especially once Tunsil went out. So yeah, OL is huge for next year and I'm afraid it will once again be our team weakness. It should be more athletic and more talented but we lose a lot of experience and will be breaking in a new center. From 2015 and on we will be fine up front but we have a long way to go for it to not be a weakness next year

Golson getting moved to center is also an opinion shared by Neal as long as we finish with what we need in recruiting to do so.

We need Jordan Sims bad. Who else are we recruiting on OL besides Sims and Are.

Then we can expect another 6 or 7 win season.

You may not wanna hear this but it's pretty much a foregone conclusion that Sims is going to Bama.
