LT- Tatum, Morris
LG- Jahmir Johnson, Locklear
C- Kennedy, Ry. Johnson
RG- Carvin, Lampley
RT- Neihaus , Wright
While I think several of the freshmen will see some playing time, i don’t think they are day 1 starters. Morris could take RT if he shows out but with Wright not being an EE and not appearing to be in as good of shape as Morris coming in I see him getting in 4 games and redshirting. Lampley comes from a high school with a strong support program so I expect him to be more game ready even though he is a summer enrollee. McBride and Akporoghene are gonna be good but need more development.
Yeah I think if Morris starts since is EE. It’s clear LY line won’t cut it. Wright in shape, there’s a good chance he’s in the rotation if not starting, and would expect starting by the time UF rolls around. Also really think Akporoghne size can’t be ignored and think probable that he and all the OL signees are in the 2 deep rotation. We better, cause if not, we’ve got problems. Having Kennedy healthy for spring would be a huge plusI imagine most everyone agrees with Johnson LG, Kennedy C, and Carvin RG. Who plays tackle all depends on when Wright and Morris are ready. I expect they will start at tackle most if not all of the season. Don't know why but I feel like Wright will be LT. Like to see Lampley and Akporoghene work their way into back ups at C and G by mid-season.
I would shake this line up....
OT - Jahmir Johnson/ Wayne Morris
OG - Trey Smith/ Carvin/ Calbert
C - Kennedy/ Ryan Johnson
OG - Carvin/ Locklear
OT - Darnell Wright/ Tatum
I don’t agree about Johnson but I assume he will get bigger and stronger by August.LT- Tatum, Morris
LG- Jahmir Johnson, Locklear
C- Ry. Johnson, Kennedy
RG- Kennedy, Carvin, Lampley
RT- Wright, Neihaus
I think Wright or Morris will start but not both so probably Wright. Could be at either tackle. Morris could play inside to start his career.
I think they'll keep Ryan Johnson at C. He got progressively better and was probably the best OL at the end of the season. I hope Tatum gains some power and weight and locks down one of the OT spots.
