theoldvet 6 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Recently received offers from FSU and Penn State. That speaks volumes about his potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're good for 2020. With what we've got right now that will still have eligibility left in 2020 we could line up Brahms or Irvin at center, Manning or Stutts at one guard, Hamm or Irvin at the other guard, Troxell and Jackson at the tackles. That leaves top-level recruit K. Jones and this year's other two OL signees to put somewhere. All these guys I've named will be two years older by 2020 and that makes a difference. These all were highly rated recruits that will be ready by then. What we're doing with increased numbers in this coming signing class is getting guys that will be in their second year on the team by 2021. That's when we'll need them. Planning three years ahead is necessary when dealing with OL guys. As someone noted above, it takes most of them more time for some reason.

Penn St does but an FSU offer on the OL has lost some of it's luster in recent years given their OL work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're in a similar, if not worse, spot than we are. Interesting to see if Kendall's new OL hire can right the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What the hell Gus is thinking by holding on to him is anyone's guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few other things in play FWIW: Dilly is helping him a lot with OL recruiting. Gus is now apparently listening to JB on the guys he wants per WDE. And JB is supposedly recruiting pretty hard per WDE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still need to see if it sticks after this recruiting class is over. Gus's track record so far in his career shows he doesn't make many long term changes.
