I know the big talking points are about defensive losses and QB production. But the thing that really worries me is the we are going into next season with very little depth on the offensive line. Behind the starters not a single player has ever played a game as a tiger and all are freshmen or new players.

That said I can't wait for Fehoko Fanaika to play.

Depends on who starts. if it is
Collins, turner, porter, alexander, hawkins. you have a new starter, and then you have williford as a utility backup guy.

When was the last time that we had 5 healthy offensive linemen from start to finish? One or more backup will start during this year, and freshman linemen are most often overwhelmed during their first year.

Why? I really don't have an opinion on him. I'm just curious what about him excites you?

O-line is the least of this teams worries IMO. You can say that there isn't much game experience behind just about any position on this team. You deal with injuries as they come.

Honestly, kick offs, punts, and kicking field goals is a worry to me.

Every team in the FBS has backups with no experience. Terrible thread! We have about 3 guys that can step in and play in the SEC. Feniaka,Williford and Pocic,so the offensive line is not the position to be worried about!

As a few posters have mentioned, OL is one of the position groups I'm least worried about - probably moreso than any other group on offense.

La'el Collins, Josh Wiliford, Trai Turner, and Vadal Alexander have all logged significant playing time.

Elliot Porter got valuable snaps last year whenever Lonergran was banged up.

Jerald Hawkins is more than capable of filling in a starting role at guard or tackle.

Ethan Pocic and Fehoko Fanaika are big bodies that will be called upon to provide depth at a variety of positions. Both - particularly, Pocic had great springs.

Jonah Austin and Evan Washington can also be called upon.
