    Donzo, you think Williams starts? I haven't heard anything about him yet. He's still young but it appears he's being passed by the class below.

    Good catch. I didn't list all the FR. Just the ones that I think will be in the 2-deep, but I'll add Grimsley as a boundary CB.

    He may actually end up at WR, but to start spring, he's a CB.

    Grimsley's here. He's on campus.

    I think the OG spot opposite Harris is wide open. Williams has as good a chance to land the starting spot as anyone. We'll see this spring.

    Williams played some last year and palyed well; he graded out high. He's the best OL, and only one left, fom the 2022 OL class. He progreesed and I believe is ready for PT in his 3rd season.

    I would like to see him around 320lbs when the spring roster comes out. He has the frame for it and would put him in a good spot to start.

    Heck, being hurt last year and missing the entire year, they may try to get an extra year out of him.

    This seems more realistic to me, especially regarding TEs.

    Mizell is skinny and fast. Let's see if he shows up in the 190 range. Jean is a borderline burner, has decent size and advance skills. The two freshmen are very fast but small. Jackson is the only WR who is big and fast. Don't know enough about Dikes.

    I will participate in the way too early prognostication.

    QB Mertz/Lagway
    RB Johnson/Webb
    WR Wilson/Hawkins
    WR Dike/Mizell
    WR Jean/Jackson or Burke
    TE Boardingham or Zipp/Hansen
    OT Barber/BCD
    OG Harris/Williams or Kearney
    OC Slaughter/Kearney
    OG Waites/George
    OT Manuel/BCD

    Edge Collins/Searcy/Gumbs or Pyburn
    DT Jackson/Watson or Lyons
    DT Slackman/Lyons or Banks
    F Boone/Taylor/K. James or Sapp
    LB Howard/Wingo or Nunnery
    LB James/Graham or Robinson
    CB Marshall/Johnson or Grimsley
    S Turner/Thornton
    S Castell/Douglas or Thornton
    CB Jackson/Moore
    NB Bridges/Denson or Johnson

    I have 10 former portals starting. That is not sustainable for the future but what we need now. Gotta hate Mullen.

    That's about where I see it. The OL will be interesting because you now potentially have 3 quality OT and if you try to get the best 5 maybe Barber slides inside. To me a BCD, Harris, Slaughter, Barber, Manuel line looks good. The F is also interesting as you have Sapp 3rd string. I would move him higher. Is Boone ready to go? I haven't heard news on that.

    L.J. McCray, a 5-star signee and one of the Top 5 players in the nation will be in the mix on the defensive front.

    I have Sapp 3rd bc CBN needs to take the next step, which I don't see with Sapp though he'll need to play. CBN needs the athletic younger guys to step up. I will believe Crenshaw is a starter when I see it . Barber needs to be much better/ healthier or we won't be better next year. OL and defense are our ceiling. Boone better be ready to go. We need him.

    No way BCD transferred to sit on bench. He will start IMO. Think someone moves inside to OG. Best 5 play

    No way McCray's not in the two-deep.
