They could be better than him too. Francis for a lot of holding calls his first yearSo OL is what is going to hold this team back next year. wtf Mario
This is what happens when you constantly recruit 3* projects that don’t belong. Going to see a lot of freshman getting snaps next year and expecting them to play anywhere close to what Francis was his freshman year is asking way too much.
Off season has officially startedWait, are people non ironically panicking about a Mario OL lol
No I think this window was a disaster for Mario’s ability to build the class the way he wanted. We’ve obviously hit on some real players but I think if the portal was open another week he’d land us someone good - just got ****ed by this stupid window and no spring window also a killer.I dont understand the portal plan at OL? We lose almost our entire OL and we only bring in Jamal Merriweather via the portal who's just depth? The only thing that makes sense is Mario is so comfortable with the young guys on the roster that he didn't feel the need to go after anyone in the portal outside of an elite guy like Seaton.
They’re unknowns TO YOU. The staff who has spent multiple years recruiting these guys and has placed multiple OL into the top 10 of drafts feels good with them. That should give us comfort.Can Okunlola play LT at a high level? Can Cantwell start right away? He's never faced real pass rush and there'll be an adjustment.
Who plays RG?
A lot of question marks. You'd expect this staff with their specialty being oline, a recruiter HC + financial backing to put themselves in a better spot with less unknowns. Kinda shocked
Size will not be the problem. Talent for most part won't be the issue. Experience will be. We will see how they coalesce together.ofc vs ACC teams 100% easy, its when you get to the playoffs you need size and talent pause. This will be a huge hole all season that teams will take advantage of at times.
you cant question anything anymore lol. Its fair for people to say they are worried about the OL just as in its fair to say they trust the coaching. I think this will bite them in the *** (down the road in the long run) but they will coach tf out of the players here for sure. Both things can be true.Brother we are replacing 4 of the best offensive lineman in the country and replacing them with a bunch of players with little experience. It's totally understandable if people are questioning them right now considering we didn't land on starter in the portal.
That’s fair but I trust Mario & the staff. I can say the line won’t be as good while also saying the line can be just fine for another playoff run.Brother we are replacing 4 of the best offensive lineman in the country and replacing them with a bunch of players with little experience.

Was still a **** good player. Expecting that out a Cantrell isn’t realistic IMOThey could be better than him too. Francis for a lot of holding calls his first year
The calendar screwed us. Mario didn’t want to recruit during the natty run and it cost us.No I think this window was a disaster for Mario’s ability to build the class the way he wanted.

Start whoever the better pass blocker is between Samson and McCoy. Start the other one at LG/RG.No idea what the staff is gonna do at LT
I thought we wanted Mensah to come hereTake all the Seaton money and bring in Duke's whole starting O line for depth.
Not sure how much quality is left in the portal at this point at OLWe can’t be done. It’s not a championship OLine
