What is our offensive lineup gonna be. I know defense will be a little better but again we are gonna be very thin on the defensive line.
I put my best guess in another thread, but here is what I see
I'm assuming that Cam, Golden and Bond are gone at WR. Banks is gone and Blue apparently is going to draft so here we go
QB - Arch, Owens, Lacey
RB - Baxter, Wisner, Gibson, Stewart
WR - Wingo, Lockett, Butler
WR - Moore, Ffrench, Livingstone
WR - Portal add, Niblett, Dubose
TE - Niblack, Shannon, Terry, Washington
LT - Goosby, Cojoe
LG - Hutson, Kibble
C - Robertson, Cruz
RG - Campbell, Umeozulu
RT - Baker, Chatman
QB room is green as green can be. Will need Arch to stay healthy.
RB room is shaky at best. Baxter can be very, very good but he has yet to play 4 games healthy in a row. Wisner will be a year better. Gibson needs to develop. No clue on Stewart as he is a freshman
WR room needs a portal addition or what would be even better is for Golden and/or Bond to come back. It is a very good room one way or another. Combo of Wingo and Moore will be so much fun for two more years
TE room is where we were at last year and then Helm went bonkers. We need that from Shannon. Niblack is a tremendous athlete, but was massively disappointing. Shannon is a giant, even bigger than Helm. I'm very excited about him. Also see what Michael Terry can bring to the table.
OL is going to be very green, but very talented. Replacing both tackles and your center can be disastrous. Hopefully they are serviceable. Having a mobile QB is going to be helpful, especially early on.
Edge - Moore, Burke
DT - Shaw, Terry, Charles
DT - January, Hills, Sharma
Edge - Simmons, Vasek
LB - Hill, Smith
LB - Lefau, Spence
Nkl - Guilibeau, J. Williams
CB - Muhammad, Wilson
CB - Black, Mack
S - Williams, Filsaime
S - Taaffe, McDonald
Edge room is very good and especially if Moore comes back. He probably should, but who knows. If he leaves we need to hit the portal to add a guy, but still have Burke, Vasek and a future award winner in Simmons coming back.
DT room needs a portal edition besides Shaw. Not sure what is left, but we need something at least like Bill Norton as he was very good for us this year. January saw action although limited, but he looks the part. Terry is supposed to be a stud freshman and he will need to be. Charles and Sharma are highly ranked freshmen as well. Need a portal sign
LB room got a nice addition in Brad Spence. This room needs to improve greatly if Texas wants to get over the hump
DB room loses two studs and a probable first round pick and Thorpe winner. That sucks, but this room is crazy talented. Guilibeau got a lot of experience and will need to take the next step. Muhammad's turn to go after a Thorpe award...it was nice to see him bounce back after Clemson tore him up. Taaffe comes back will be huge. Freshman Williams should see significant time behind Guilibeau and I'm hoping he is every bit the play maker as he should be. Black or Mack need to step up and fill the shoes of Muhammad as the CB2. And then there is McDonald and D Williams. These two could both be every bit as good as Mike Huff, maybe better at the safety position.
