I think changes need to be made to add some weight to our o-line. Also, I'm not too excited about Barksdale taking over at LT. I'm just not a huge fan.

I don't think they move him from RT. I think next year the battle for LT will be between Jermarcus Hardrick, Greg Shaw and Chris Faulk with Hardrick winning out.

I think they are great under a diff scheme. But under Crowton and his setup, they will be average again with pro talent.

He needs to go, when you loose the players, and he has from my contact with them, it is a lost cause.

Does every question have to refer back to the coaching staff?

cant be any worse...we had 2 first year starters, both have to get stronger this offseason. They were bad in the run game.

We will add considerable bulk to the interior OL which should help with this.

Dworacyzk and Hebert should add weight in the off-season and with Hitt leaving whether you go with Blackwell or Hurst you add considerable bulk in his place.

If T-Bob is still the starting center, he's really too small, they'll probably move Lonergan to guard. He's too good an O-Linemen to be sitting. Don't be surprised if Lonergan starts at center and T-Bob ends up being the backup. It was close this year and a lot of people you talk too felt that Lonergan actually won the competition.

T-Bob is the better center simply because he knows what he's doing compared to Lonergan. Keep in mind Hebert has been a center his entire life. Lonergan was just moved to center this year.

Hebert has a ton of talent. I think he was simply hampered by his serious injury this year.

Actually, a new coach should come in without any preconceptions. Open up the competition and start the best players. Let's hope that Faulk, Lowe, and Hardrick live up to the hype. Chase Clement at tight end; the guy is too good of an athlete to sit, and he might be too small to play DE. Technique must be taught to all lineman; we also need to get mean up front.

I think Faulk will start at a tackle position. And Parsons will be higher up the depth chart, possibly pushing Dworczack for a starting position. Any rotation should be an upgrade from this year.

Hurst appears to be the right guard in waiting, he played alot of minutes there against Ole Miss. I'd like to see Hardrick come in and compete for a spot somewhere whether it's tackle or guard. It appears there will be 9-10 guys competing for 5 spots. 7 of those guys have played this year.

I don't really care who they put in at O-Line, but I just want them to be Nasty and Physical.

I would not mind a few personnel fouls coming from the O-Line (No chop blocks of course). We got man handled a few times this year in the running game, so I say bring on the beef and put some damn size in the game.

The o-line could have been good this year if guys like Blackwell and Hurst had played more.
