Nice. We need a Tongan to put us over the top. Was disappointed when he didn't qualify.

Hopefully. The only position in question would be C. How far along has Elliott Porter developed? He's gotten a little PT this year but not a whole lot.

We are pretty stacked at tackle and guard, though. Faulk-Collins & Turner-Alexander will be awesome.

I think he's gonna be good. with Williford down, dude was backup C, RG, and RT, so I'm guessing he's got the assignments part down.

Yeah good point. Hopefully he is ok next year. It just seems like forever since either Lonergan or Hebert wasn't our center.

Could move turner to center. Fan and alexander as g-ot on the right side, faulk and collins as g-ot on left side.

Hill will have 1500 yrds and thats sharing with hilliard and blue.

Good to see he's finally making it. But man you have to be pretty dumb not to qualify, the standards are so low it almost sad.

DAMN he got jobbed by his CC basically. They told him he was taking a math course necessary for him to get to LSU. Turns out it was the wrong one and he passed it. He stayed back and passed the correct one this time.

He passed the class. If you take classes at a junior college in the south, most of them won't transfer to other regions of the country, and vice versa. Even if the classes are exactly the same.

Eliot Porter has been the backup center for a reason. He'll be a beast once he gets some more experience.

Same size as Lonergan, more agile though
