2027 Mark Matthews 5* OL from STA Flips to UGA from TAMU 2.0

Consider the source lol come on guys.
Interested Idris Elba GIF
 
Also getting Max back to push for the RG position. I think next seasons OL doesn’t need a portal starter, but I would like to see the staff add 2 portal guys to add to the depth and competition

Potential 2027 OL room

OT
YR 5 - Samson Okunlola, 6-6 330
YR 3 - Jacob Hawks, 6-9 340
YR 3 - Jaden Wilkerson, 6-6 335
YR 3 - Demetrius Campbell, 6-6 330 (could portal out)
YR 2 - Jackson Cantwell, 6-8 330
YR 2 - Joel Ervin, 6-6 330
YR 1 - Mark Matthews, 6-6 300 (assuming he flips)

*Keep and eye on JUCO OT Dorian Williams 6-8 290, was offered in October. I would take him over a portal OT*

OG
YR 5 - Jamal Meriweather, 6-7 305
YR 4 - Juan Minaya, 6-5 335 (could portal out)
YR 3 - Max Buchanan, 6-4 315

YR 2 - Rhys Woodrow, 6-4 315
YR 2 - JJ Sparks, 6-3 305
id still go center in the portal...( they arent that expensive)

i already even said some targets in fau's center and maryland's current center who is pretty good michael herhsey.

rhys looks like the center in waiting. i keep sj at guard...(this is my thoughts not coach)es

i like the juco guy as a back fill

i expect to lose like a minaya and maybe another ol to transfer.

not sure of matthews flips bit of we land him that would be major.

Im in the opinion on not over valuing are guys and on a mario team having elite of the elite in the trenches..we played around and did that this off szn n basically only targeted a tackle that lane kiffin out recruited us for n brought in a walk on level player in cline for emergency, Merrriwether a second option type in the portal and hawks late from juco.

Go get you 2 starter level players out of the portal and let the chips fall.

Im personally going after a Tackle as if Samson is gone...Playing around in the portal is how you get left out.

No it’s not
Nah. It's pretty **** similar actually. A QBs job is to throw the ball. The centers job is to snap the ball. If he struggles with snapping then the primary function of his job he struggles with. It's like having a call center with no phones or internet. Lol. I think sj will figure it out though. He's looked a lot better on the right side than he did on the left for whatever reason. BUT guard isn't his position. It's either center or West Coast here we come. My 2 cents that's all.

Does a Center require touch on his snaps?
Does a Center have different reads to snap?
Does a Center have more than one depth to snap too? (Ok, pistol vs shotgun maybe)
Does a Center have to deal with a pass rush while trying to snap?

You wanna say Malik Rosier who couldn’t toss a pitch on a sweep, maybe. Maybe. There is so much more that goes into the throwing process of a QB than a C with a snap. Imagine if a QB only had to throw 5 yard quick outs to the tight end all day. Even Kirby Freeman could’ve mastered that.

I think.

We will lose in the portal:
Minaya
Campbell
Wilkerson
And maybe one more like the kid from bolles

i dont see the bolles as he is a true freshman thats injured.

Minaya may be able to fetch some nil an playing time else where.

Wilkerson/Campbell were always long term projects...maybe one of the two get itchy but not both. These guys will stay an fight in the spring to see where it fits.

We should always have a top 10 ol so pley the portal EVERY Year for grown men to fill starter roles or back fill for lost.

Look we have guys transfer out that are starters at big programs on the OL.

I mostly agree but the problem is...only one portal now. These kids taking a risk if they dont jump in the initial portal. Will be interesting to monitor.

I don’t think Minaya has the foot speed to fetch NIL, maybe he could maul some NIL

Brother he wasn't talking about semantics. He was simply being as sarcastic as I was. A center who can't snap consistently is a center who's incapable of executing the primary function of his job. No different from any QB who's not capable of throwing the ball consistently. The fact Malik happened to be a dead on example since he was **** when it came to passing just made the irony stand out that much more. If we were analyzing details of the job you'd be dead on. The fact that worthless **** would put screens into the ground consistently just cut a lil sharper.
