| 2013 Offensive Linemen, including new recruits. (Posted on 1/12/13 at 11:20 am)
I know that La'el Collins and Josh Willford will be solid. Any thoughts on who else will step up and provide an impenetrable wall for ZM and gaping holes for our RB's???? Elliott Porter OL JR Trai Turner OL SO Jerald Hawkins OL RSFR Derek Edinburgh Jr. OL RSFR La'el Collins OG JR Jonah Austin OT SO Josh Willford OG SR Evan Washington OL JR Vadal Alexander OT SO Plus recruits coming in: Ethan Pocic Carl Malone Jr. Andy Dodd Josh Boutte Fehoko Fanaika

I think Alexander and Turner will take a big step forward for next season and Fanaika will contribute early.

I really like our freshman OL we have in this class. Rettig is going to have a great line in front of him.

They will have Porter at center. T. Turner and V. Alexander on one side and L. Collins and Williford on the other. Those will be a monstrous starting 5. The two guards could be matched up on either side but L.Collins and Alexander will be your starting tackles. Collins on the left.

Pocic is going to be an absolute stud.

Not sure I agree with this. Williford does not have the mobility LSU likes in a guard. I thought Turner was considerably better. The only way Williford starts, IMO, is if they move Turner to center, Collins to tackle, or if there is an injury. I doubt the first two happen.

Dude JWilliford started every game at gaurd as a soph. He's the biggest guy on the team at 6'7 335 and one of the strongest. Id bet every dollar I have (if healthy) he'll start every game next season. Hell LM even mentioned him in the adv article. He had a head injury, and thats something coaches/trainers dont take lightly these days.

I hope so, but the coaches haven't seemed open to moving Collins.
