I’m giving the “kid” a compliment on his vast improvement. I’m not willing to call him All-SEC yet so that’s why I’m still going to watch with a keen eye on one of our weaknesses from last year.

I'm not nearly as worried about LT as I was before the game. Traore can play and if Charles isn't there or can't get it done this season, Traore could very well hold it down. Magee and Hines are solid enough at LG but getting Ingram back would be huge

Traore isn’t a bum. He was the top rated O Lineman in JUCO for a reason, but a lot of JUCO guys still take a year to get comfortable at the FBS level. Looks like that was the case with him, too. Even if he’s a backup, he looks like he will be a capable one, and that’s a step up from last year.

I watch OL play and Deculus wasn’t that bad last year. The talent is certainly there. I was much more disappointed in Traore who was highly touted to provide immediate help.

Same here......have the exact same perspective.

I am a fan of AD and want to see the young man really realize his potential. I still think he can be something special.
