There will much better answers after spring practice...then we will know what to expect from Deculus and Ingram( I think both are EE guys) and we'll see if Cushenberry is developing along with Campbell...maybe even a surprise from Savage...who knows...

Why our OL will be stout next year (See Below). Defense will be stout with Shelvin in, and if we get Wilson with Mathis added in then we will have the best DL in CFB. But as I mention below we need new blood in our strength program.

LT- Austin Deculus 6'6"-330 Fr. (2017 Class)
LG- Donavaughn Campbell 6'4"-340 So.
C- William Clapp 6'-5"-310 Jr.
RG- Maea Teuhema 6'5"-325 Jr.
RT- Toby Weathersby 6-4"-310 Jr.

LT- K.J. Malone 6'4" 310 Sr.
LT- Garrett Brumfield 6'3"-310 Jr.
C- Andy Dodd 6'4"-320 Sr.
RG- Adrian Magee 6'5"-310 FR. (RS)
RT- Willie Allen 6'7"-320 Fr. (RS)

LT- Seth Stewart 6'8"-320 Fr. (Prolly RS) 2017 Class
LG- Saadiq Charles 6'4"-320 Fr. (Prolly RS) 2017 Class
C- Lloyd Cushenberry 6'4"-308 So.
RG- Jakori Savage 6'5"-315 So.
RT- Edward Ingram 6'5-325 Fr. 2017 Class

15 scholarship players. I put Deculus as the starter because I think he will be our best OT and will be better than Malone come September 2017. The other 3 2017 recruits are put into the 3rd string OL and 1 or 2 will probably Redshirt (RS).

We only have 2 Seniors in the top 15 scholarship players, and why I put Deculus in the starting group is he has a whole season under him so we can win the National Championship in 2018 as that 2018 OL will be smothering! For that to happen I think we need to make a coaching change for our strength & conditioning program. Let Canada install his system with and help Grimes groam this great group of young men.

Plus other practice players below gives us 20 total offensive linemen for practice and games for 2017:

LT- Rory Luke 6'4" 275 So.
LG- Michael Smith 6'2" 290
C- Jabrail Abdul-Aziz 6'2"-290 Jr.
RG- Turner Simmers 6'4"-280 Jr.
RT- Justin Mikush 6'4"-285 Jr.
