On paper, this does not bode well. Someone tell me we will roll.

Smart move by Bunche.

So three of our 5 starters have significant playing time, 4 others have some playing time. We also have lots of depth with some quality but inexperienced back ups who can get experience slowly throughout the year.

Not seeing the problem. The majority of programs in the country would wish they had our o-line. Barring a couple of catastrophic injuries early in the season we're fine on the o-line.

 

[RBhurricane87]

Smart move by Bunche.

Seriously.

WTF was that kid thinking? He would be starting right now.

 

[Da_U_85]

Smart move by Bunche.

Seriously.

WTF was that kid thinking? He would be starting right now.

And he is most likely going to starting at a better school in UCLA. So prob a smart move.

I guess you equate minimal playing time / college game experience with lack of ability?

 

[CaneAlmighty]

Best offensive line since 2001

 

[UMFarArcher]

Best offensive line since 2001

Almost choked on my coffee.

 

[Canesfan1899]

Best offensive line since 2001

That's what we said last year, and that group under preformed. Nothing tells me this year will be different.

 

[TheSwagger1]

We should be OK (at least in an Art Kehoe way of being "ok") provided we don't have a rash of injuries (particularly we need Flowers & Feliciano to stay healthy so that we don't have to play Odogwu or McDermott [yet]).

 

[caneinpsl]

I'm worried about depth, but Isidora and Gadbois aren't chopped liver. Injuries are the real concern, not the starting five. We need Darling and McDermott to develop in a hurry.

 

[JHallCanes]

It starts in the middle. If Gall cant beat out Shane, we are in trouble already. I try not to trash our players, but McDermott is a major liability

Depending who you believe, Isadora was really shining before he got hurt. Guard is a tough spot for a young guy, even a cannibalistic moose-beast like Alex Gall

McDermott just isn't strong enough in the middle, really hope Gall is ready to take major snaps this season.

Repped and liked OP for the Al Gordlen thread that got nuked

THIS.

Dude gets straight raped against any decent DT. It's almost really hard to watch the exchange each play.
