Ole Miss's OL vs. Scout Team
- Thread starter MSU124
- Start date
they had been heehawing about how their oline was coming along. And they have already named Gross a starter at Dtackle.
If that's true, they may pull a goose egg in the...
win column this year. Good grief that is awful! Tulane just might have a chance against them if they don't learn how to block.

You're getting Strong and Gross confused.
Gross is starting DT, he's about 265. Strong is a DE on the scout team.
Still, a 265 true freshman DT that is blowing up the OL is probably not a good sign for either side of the football.
according to the spirit articles, gross is closer to
250lbs than 270 lbs. and he has been named a starter already.

It really is going to be ugly 100 miles to the northwest this fall. That offense is going to make Croom look like an offensive genius. I've got tham at 3-9, but there's not a game on their schedule that I think is a real safe bet. And that includes the Central Arkansas game next Saturday.
i remember our "sloan years' when in august
all the discussion was how we had this 400 yd per game offensive. by october we'd figured out we had a 400 yd a game defense. i thing strong may be a really good player but this sounds a bit ominous to me.

Make no mistake, Gross can play. He may be a little light at DT, but his first step is crazy. Very reminiscent of Peria Jerry, actually. He'll need to bulk up to handle SEC interior linemen, but he's going to beat plenty of guys on quickness alone.
As for Strong, I think he's more of a hybrid OLB/DE. The fact that he's scout team and blowing up their OL is a very bad sign, though. I've got them at 2-10, but anything from 0-12 to 3-9 is possible.
