A couple notes on offensive line

[Hurracanes]

Spoke to a team source last night. He had a couple interesting tidbits on the OL.

- Tyler Gauthier is getting some work at guard. He's still primarily a center, but this is an interesting wrinkle that gives the line some more flexibility.

- John Campbell is getting reps with the 1s at RT. I wouldn't read too much into that (Searels likes to mix and match in spring) but the word is that Campbell is further along than expected. All of the freshmen look like players.

Keep bringing the tidbits D$.

Imagine what a Miami Hurricanes Offense would look like with an elite OL. Hasn’t happened since when, 2002?

75 is how I want an OL to look. Doesn’t look like a sloppy blobby pig.

As for Campbell, where’s the genius who rated him as a career backup type for the Palm Beach Post?

Gary Furburger has him as a possible bust, he named him and blades when asked who he thought the possible flops were.

Start fitting Blades and Campbell for their HOF jackets.

How cumbersome are those braces?

They're not - used to limit injuries.

Hillerys body is looking like he's about ready to go, looking like a prototypical tackle.

I wonder how Tre s looking ? He had a great frame , just needed size and strength.

I heard tre was gonna end up transferring from a friend at school (not saying it's a sure thing or anything like that but that's what tre told him)

Makes sense if it’s true , with all the talent coming and him being so raw he could see himself getting buried on the depth chart.

So we finally got with the times and have the knee braces on.

Amen to that! At first, I'm thinking ... geez, Campbell has knee issues already!!

Haven't they been wearing those for a while?

Yes

Really good news on Campbell. Wasn't he considered quality depth ceiling by most?

I don't think that's what the staff saw him as. They were after him hard.

 

[Yasuke]

Hillery will be getting a lot of time as the season progresses. Yeah I believe Tre Johnson is gone.

 

[jw410]

Tre who... lmao

 

[Loose Cannon]

Yes

Never underestimate the power of porsters in large groups...

Who the fck asks that question about kids on our team?
A bunch of weirdo pedophilic buttboys who subscribe to that site.
So glad I left that cesspool.

Yep, it was when I listened to his recruiting podcast. I think it was one of the questions asked , I don’t subscribe but do listen to the podcast occasionally.

He’s mentioned multiple times Blades was overrated and is more a camp superstar. He always menthoned the same two guys as reaches or potential busts.

 

[SmokeyRone]

Hmmm, Oline bois looking like grown *** mens. Maybe my skepticism bout da Oline making a significant improvement this year may have been misplaced. It's all about da trenches and da foxholes!

Yeah. We absolutely need an improved OL next year. So, its a presumption we may have a top OL in a couple seasons? Is this a good nucleus of young talent?

 

[JMG]

Thanks D$

Took the words right out of my mouth.

 

[k9cane]

this is starting to look like what an UM OLine should look like(just on my slanted eye test) But yeah, for the past decade or so we had way to many 'Section 8's'(projects) on scholly...
