re: Will Anthony Johnson start as a freshman?

Will Blackwell-when healthy, IMO-is our best interior offensive lineman. It's not close, either.
Look at how preoccupied with getting off the ball and getting after Freak that Blackwell was in the National L Club Spring Game. Guy had two false-start penalties where he was sprinting off the line trying to initiate contact with Johnson.
Seriously, go back & look. He was lined up on Johnson, & Freak was giving Blackwell all he wanted. As a senior who should've been worried about prom, even.
This guy may not start, but the hole left by Nevis won't be anywhere near as small now that we have him, Ego, & Brockers in there.
Whomever mentioned Downs is a bit off. He's way down the rotation, unfortunately, He is not consistent, at all.

I think the fact that he got in early will be a huge boost for him. Strength is so important for DL so the extra time at LSUs weight room will help him tremendously.
That being said an 18 yr old is going to be physically behind a 21 yr old so I think him starting over highly talented more physically mature players is unlikely. He will definitely play a good bit IMO.

You really just name-dropped the sponsor of the spring game?
