So he's good enough to start at LSU, but at Bama, he'll sit the bench? So I guess in reality by your logic he sucks?

I swear, some of you guys are just freaking dumb!

As much as I don't like agreeing with you, I never understood that argument. "Oh man we lost a critical OL, but he'll never see the field there." Just dumb.

Or they passed Math 101. Shall we review the OL recruiting lately by LSU and Alabama by the numbers? Yes, I believe we shall. And LSU's Ferguson is counted only as a snapper and Shipley left at TE BTW.

2013 LSU signs 4 OL Alabama signs 4
2014 LSU signs 2 OL Alabama signs 6
2015 LSU has 3 verbals Alabama has 5 verbals

So yeah Womack will be competing against 14 (obviously not competing against himself) at Alabama and would be competing against only 9 at LSU for players close to his class. So yeah, everything else being equal, his chances of sitting on the bench at Alabama much better than if he was at LSU. Once again, I don't give a damn where the guy goes but to act like the depth chart doesn't matter, simply is naive. And yes, I didn't break down OT specifically because I don't know Alabama's OT personnel + guys these days are cross-trained anyway.
