Word is Magee will play at RT. I'm pretty disappointed we aren't gonna see Deculus.

I looked at the participation chart last night, because I can't remember seeing Deculus play at all, but he's listed as playing all 4 games - maybe on special teams?

Maybe I missed it, but he's one player I've been watching for.

You can't call a True Freshman a bust but how is a top 50 OT that's an EE not getting any playing time when the other 2 Freshman OL in the class are splitting reps? I was hoping they were going to have him focus 100% on being a tackle but now a redshirt Freshman that started the season not even on the depth chart has passed him.

He's out there on all FG and extra points attempts.

He's a Tackle. They want him to start at LT next year so they're grooming him instead of trying to teach him how to play RG and pull, etc. I really wish they would give him some reps this week though. He can't be much worse than what we've seen.

To the other guy about the 4 plays- I'm pretty sure he's on the kick protection team.

Damn I hope this nothing serious. We have already lost Campbell for the year.

Oh, I get that. And Magee has about the right frame - he's built sort of like a tweener - tall, long arms, but thick - his natural position is guard, so this could be interesting. Playing guard is a whole lot about attitude and aggression, plus being in the right place at the right angle.

Being a tackle is like dueling or fencing - you have to anticipate, move your feet, get your hands right and get your opponent where you need him to be. Very different skill sets, especially in pass blocking.

Missed practice three days reasons unknown?

Seems odd.

He's hurting a bit. Hearing he won't go on Saturday.

I hope not because that will mean they want him to suffer a season ending injury before Saturday considering he's played in every game this year.

Can't possibly be any worse and most likely will be an improvement. OL Coach is nutty clueless.

Oh well, just grin (Frown) and bear it. Swan song this year for JG.......

He hasn't played well at all. Wander if he's been hampered. He was good pre injury last year. KJ needs to sit if he plays another game like last week. He looked lost and uninspired. Put a young hungry kid there and see what happens

Play him only in his proper position. Good.
