    We are lining up a beavy of 3 star and under rated offensive line gems that our staff has out evaluated all other top 20 programs in the country.

    I wouldn't knock this guy too much. If he can gain functional strength, he has top end athleticism (really good 40 and shuttle for an OT) and has a frame that can make him one of the best OT prospects we could add in quite some time. He is nowhere near as raw as Conner and way higher ceiling than Nelson. He just needs a lot of time with Savage.

    Almost all of the freshman offensive lineman need development including the ones who supposedly don't and I like the track record on getting guys to add needed weight and/or strength. I won't pretend he was likely our first choice but he sounds like he could be developed into a good one.

    Good frame and athleticism for OT. Could be a nice developmental tackle.

    True statement. Sadly this is the statement for all of the OTs we have been recruiting for the most part.

    Bring ‘em in. I don’t see any issues with getting athletic projects from HS and filling immediate needs via the portal. That looks like the route we are heading.

    No sure if this has been posted, but 3* OT Ja'Kavion Nomar decommited from Pittsburgh and the Gators are making a strong push (yes they have offer) for the 6-7 285 from Belle Glade.

    I would have thought the staff would be more on Trent Ramsey than they have been (which hasnt been much)

    Not really sure what to make of him. Because how he runs he looks like he is not as good an athlete (40 and shuttle) as Nonar and certainly does not have the height and reach. If he then is an interior guy, I am not sure that he has as wide a frame as I think we need inside.

    Willing to consider that Conner and Nonar have great potential to be solid OL additions in year 3 and 4. More risk and perhaps greater upside, but frame, measurables, and athleticism may be there. Can’t teach height or arm length

    And if a good line for the next 2-3 years is already in place, we are fine. I gue we we see soon.
