We've already got Slay, who will start at CB next year as a JUCO, and there are a few names out there I think we will go after for DE and OT. We could possibly move Lawrence to LT and let Robinson or Clausell play RT, but I'm a bigger fan of us getting a JUCO LT. I think we will do the same to fill Pern's spot. Maybe Leon Mackey? Not sure, but he would be a nice addition and could start in Perns spot opposite Ferguson.

I hope that we are able to fill the left tackle spot with players that are already here. The last few Juco Linemen that we were counting on to produce never lived up to their billing (Phillip Freeman and the rodeo Star, J. D. Hamilton?). I wouldnt mind bringing one in for competition but are not dependent on them to be the savior of our line.

LB - losing 3 starters here is huge, lot of young talent but very little experience
T -maybe moveLaweranceto LT &use a redshirt freshman at RT (unless we sign a top JUCO)
CB - was a big weakness and still need more depth, hope Slay lives up to the hype
DE - need more depth (JUCO), but Cox may spend more time here due to depth at DT
P & Long Snapper - Hutchins & Feld were the best combination we've had in quiet some time

Croom. And that guy isn't here anymore. Mullen has already said we only want to bring in JUCOs that will start right away. I trust Mullen's ability in evaluating JUCO's that can make instant impacts, and I highly doubt we bring in guys like Freeman that never make an impact.

That being said about Mullen and JUCO's, this Justin Peacock guy is coming for a visit in a few weeks and I understand he is pretty talented and may end up coming here. I think he is a guy that could come in an make an impact on the OL instantly.

we are shaping up to have a team full of guards and small forwards next year. We will give the term playing small a new meaning. I can't wait to see 5 guys standing around the perimiter wondering why they can't get open.
