He will not be coming in for the game today because Dwyer's game was rained(lightning) out last night. They play Jupiter tonight at 7. He will be here for the Florida game with a large part of his family.

heck, as a commitment I'd much rather come to the Florida game as well. This worked out in his and his families favor. This could help us as well if we bring in some other potentials for the game to have this big guy in their ears

He was coming in for today's game to give his official commitment in person, but it fell through after last night's weather. He had told Gonzales, Stud, and Les earlier in the week he was committing. The Florida game was always going to be his official visit. Also, I don't think it has been mentioned, but he will be a January enroll.

Forgot to add, I think Vadal and Avery are coming in for the Florida game. Patrick got to know Vadal a little at the Nike event. I think he has talked to Avery some also.

We need to recruit some Gs that can play center. We lose T-Bob this year.

I think T. Turner or C. White will be moved to center at some point. Maybe Elliot Porter.

I'm really excited about our offensive line over the next four to five years.

2012:

LT: Chris Faulk - Jr.
LG: La’el Collins - So.
C: P.J. Lonergan - Sr.
RG: Evan Washington - So.
RT: Alex Hurst - Sr.

2013 and on:

LT: La’el Collins - Jr./Miller
LG: Corey White - So./Alexander
C: Trai Turner - So./Ferguson
RG: Jonah Austin - So./Elliot Porter - So.
RT: Evan Washington - Jr./Edinburgh

I am just wondering why all the OT? We lose both our starting Gs this year T-Bob and Will. I also know they have moved Collins to guard as a try.

You have to wait until his eligibility is up to ask the NCAA and it's not a gimme.

I think he's there to get some PT before eventually moving to the outside. A lot of OT do this. M. Oher did that at Ole Miss. J. Ogden did that for the Ravens.

We and most other schools recruit more tackles because they are versatile enough to move inside if needed or they can't cut it tackle.Pure guards can't transition out to tackle because they don't have the feet most of the time.Centers are different in regards to recruiting tackles.Not nearly as many tackles can transition to center because of height.Center is also a very cerebral position so therefore not all lineman can effectively play that spot.
