Lost: T. Gauthier, H. Mahoney, J. Jones, V. Boulware, B. Milo

Returning: N. Donaldson, C. Gaynor, C. Reed, Z. Hillery, Z. Dykstra, J. Griffith

Added: J. Clark

Maybe Adam El Gammal gets a look at guard.

Get ready for my curve ball...

Jordan Miller # 91 in your programs should get a look at OG.

DT is looking pretty solid with Nnoruka, Bethel, Ford, Silvera, Holley, Blissett, Hunte.

Miller is almost sure to get passed by the more athletic DTs that Simpson appears to covet, and we're in pretty desperate need of help at OG.

Jeremy Lewis, Damond Neely, Robert Hall...it's worked before.

If nothing else maybe Miller could become the next Freeman Brown or Ricky Perry.

No. Do you understand how depth works? Holley and hunte are rs guys. Ford hasnt done anything, bethel hasn't done much, and nesta is coming off his freshmen season.
 
I've heard it's possible scaife can be moved inside at LG if campbell, hillery, or brown impresses at right tackle. Interested to see how Barry sees the puzzle fitting together.
 
Miami's never been known for huge DTs, (big daddy aside) but they could certainly use a big body type for short yardage and obvious run situations. I think Miller can at least contribute a couple plays of being hard to move.

Yep. We need Miller for our annual bowl game against Wisconsin.

Miller played exactly zero snaps against Wisconsin, when it was plainly obvious to anyone watching that Miami's DTs weren't holding up.

Vince Wilfork, Damian Lewis, Cortez Kennedy, William Joseph, and Jerome Brown all say different st at 300lbs+. Not to mention we just had a 300lb All American DT.

C'mon on man learn the history an show the big boys there just dues..

Go Canes
 
Kennedy and Scaife at T, Reed and Donaldson at G (Maybe Miami gets Braun?) and then Gaynor at C. Boulware ****ed us by leaving otherwise he is at the other guard spot with Donaldson.
 
The only writing here is what's written on the wall by Simpson recruiting 3 DTs and adding a grad transfer.

Something's gotta give with 5 interior O-linemen departing and just one incoming.

This is super alarming: N. Donaldson, C. Gaynor, C. Reed, Z. Hillery, Z. Dykstra, J. Griffith
 
Looked like a mountain of a man with great get off. This new strength staff is going to be key (If they're the real deal) for a lot of these linemen, especially Donaldson.

It's time for Donaldson, Gaynor, Hillery, and Reed to take over. It's as simple as that. Would have loved to keep Boulware or add Braun or another grad transfer (maybe we still will) but the guys we've had in our system for two plus years need to be ready by now.
 
Best case scenario for the spring imo:

Kennedy and Gaynor cement LT and C this spring, respectively.

Donaldson and Scaife lock down the guard spots with Reed as their primary backup.

Starting RT emerges from a group of Campbell, Brown, Herbert, Hillery, El Gammal, Dykstra, Nelson.

That list of potential RT starters is scary.
