AUBURN, Alabama — Austin Troxell's injury is worse than initially revealed. The backup right tackle and future starter will miss the...

How in the world did he do this?

This really isn't good. We don't have near the depth and we cannot afford losses. SMH

Damn, I hate to hear that for the young man.

He’s got a pair of bad knees apparently. Every time he gets stronger he injures an ACL.

Balls!! This is not good, but others just have to step up and fill the gap!

Here’s to a speedy recovery and a recruiting class full of Oline guys.  Hopefully Prince is the next star left tackle for Auburn and attracts some top end talent.  Gonna need a good juco or grad transfer as well.  definitely don’t want a true freshman guarding the Qbs back.

Troxell, a sophomore, was projected to be the top backup behind starter Jack Driscoll at right tackle and the first man off the bench potentially at both tackle spots. 

 

Guys, it's not a problem. Right, @Mikey?

This is the 3rd or 4th knee injury. I hate it for him .

This was my immediate reaction as well.  I've been bitching about OL recruiting since the '15 class and here we find ourselves today.

Maybe we can plug and play our recent DT that's never played OL. That should work out nicely.

Except that there are no others... It's almost like we should've recruited some OTs in the past few years or something.

I think I have eligibility. So long as they let me have blowdarts full of tranquilizers to shoot at bullrushing DTs, put me in coach.

 

Edit: Ptoo! Ptoo! Ptoo!

...defeats the purpose...

[Dual-Threat Rigby 8,640]

Why do we recruit so many offensive linemen with medical problems?
