Well we've been clamoring for a change in the ol. Today Kyle Flood announced a major change. Andrej Karic has been benched. In the reshuffled ol Junior has been moved to lg And Derek has gone back to rt. The change is that Tope well start at rg. Hey Diablo is right let the coaches make the changes. Flood has good resume. I'm sure he knows what he's doing.

Is there anyone who doesn't know that Jordan and Jacoby are out? They're having surgery this week and while no timetable has been set for their return it wouldn't surprise me of they're out for the rest of the season. Jordan has a broken clavicle. To no one's surprise Alfred will fill in for Jacoby and Marcus W. will come in for Jordan and Keaontay's brother Kelnontay will get some time.

It looks like our 5* db commit Denver Harris is starting to wobble. AL is coming into the picture. However, Jacoby Matthews the #3 player in LA and 5* db in his own right will make an official visit for the OSU game. Our cb coach Terry Joseph is from LA and is building strong relationship. with him.

Thought Garth might get a look at RT, but moving Kerstetter back to a more natural spot and giving Tope a run works too. It couldn't get any worse.

I hope Karic develops, but oh my he was really bad in pass pro and not much better in the run game.

I've got to believe Christian Jones' days are numbered too.

Huge loss in Whitt. He is far and away better than any replacement coming in. Just hope for someone to play as good as they can. Losing Jones sucks depth wise, but I honestly think Collins is a better player on the edge than Jones.

Denver has been an Alabama lean for a while. We're going to have a top 6/7 class. What we need is 4-5 OL with 1/2 being a top rated one.

Here's something else...with Whitt out, time to move KRob around more Sark. Get him more involved...if you can and he is able.

I wonder with no ot commits maybe the coaches think there's promise with the ot that are already here. With signing day 2 months away our 2 ol commits are both iol. If we can get Devin Campbell to Austin that would make 3 iol. Needless to say our coaches know where in the ol we are weakest.
 
Hayden Conner has been moving all over the ol as a 2nd tanner
teamer at every position but center. I'm sure he's been on the field some. He's one of only 2 ol we signed this year. Also another freshman Casey Cain has been playing on special teams and maybe he'll get some time at receiver before the season ends.

There are about half a dozen out of state kids the coaches are working on. The in state kids are few and far between and already going elsewhere.

Conner has played 48 snaps. All in mop up time.
 
Well i'm glad the coaches saw the issue from Saturday and are trying to address it. Will it be any better, maybe not but at least they are trying to fix it. Moving Kerstetter back to RT is a good move, it's his natural position.

I believe our issues on the line are lack of talent. With that being said I still think there's room from growth from the young guys. Hopefully Flood can get it worked out before the end of the season.

A couple of thoughts here.

If Cincinnati makes the playoffs and if they can hang on to Luke Fickell for a few years then all of a sudden the new Big XII doesn't look so bad after all.

Like most people on here I to thought let's be in the SEC next year. After watching our lines against AR and OK now I'm thinking you know maybe we should wait another year 😅

*** btw we will be playing those teams on a regular basis when we start playing in the SEC.***

Our OL will be much different by that time. Our OL cannot possibly play any worse than they are now.
