Moving from OG to C could be done during a spring.

it CAN theoretically be done, but it's a tough transition, especially for a former DL

the OC has to make all the calls, and be trained in how to see the field and make the calls

and then there is the whole snapping thing. just look at PJ, who has struggled to learn how to shotgun snap the ball

But, to think that is unreasonable is ridiculous.

it is pretty unreasonable to expect a guy to move from DT to OG to OC in 3 years

Not a guy (it's not just about Hitt)...one of the many OL who are no longer here. All it would take is for one of those guys to step up and show better than any of the 3 guys we have in the middle now. And, based on our 3 guys, that's very possible.

it's not as hard to move a lineman from guard to center or tackle to guard during as you want to make it out to be. It can be done and is done all the time. Sure you don't do it in the middle of the season, but that's the kind of thing that can be done during spring camp.
