Two deep for 2014:

LT La’el Collins 6-5 315 Sr.
Josh Boutte 6-4 333 RFr.

LG Vadal Alexander 6-6 342 Jr.
Jonah Austin 6-6 324 Jr.

C Elliott Porter 6-4 300 Sr.
Ethan Pocic 6-7 301 So.

RG Fehoko Fanaika 6-6 348 Sr. -or-
Evan Washington 6-6 334 Sr.

RT Jerald Hawkins 6-6 301 RSo.
Andy Dodd 6-4 322 RFr.

* scary thing is that we could potentially lose every one of our starting OL for 2015!

If there is a spot Pocic will play. This year they were too high on him.

Damn. Our smallest lineman is 6-4 300

They should be able to maul in the running game next year

No lack of experience there. Hopefully these guys come out of the off-season in the best shape of their lives and ready to maul opponents into submission.

This. They'll get their 5 best guys on the field. Fanaika will not start ovr Pocic. Boutte is another guy who could start at RG. He's got the body for it.

Why would Collins move back to guard?? He's trying to get drafted as a tackle and improve his stock there.

This is probably correct. Would like to see if anyone pushes for LG or C, especially LG.

I think Pocic slides over to RG.

LSU's former offensive line coach said that La'El was the best OG in the country in 2012, better than the two guys that went in the top-10 of the NFL draft.

That's why I say he moves back to LG, if he indeed returns.

This. Collins isn't switching positions and Pocic isn't going to take his spot.

If Vandal and Pocic are at the OG spots AJ better grow some in the spring because he will have a tough time finding throwing lanes over those big boys at 6-6 and 6-7.
