Plus add a transfer.


That is great for protection plus the run game! There is also talk of returning most Defensive starters or rotation guys.

If we pull that off in the age of the transfer portal, that's another win for this staff!

Number one, we need to add to it because you can never have too many Offensive Linemen. Number two, I would like for an offensive line to have one rotation deep. I really want us to be two deep across the line and three deep across if we can do it. Defensive line as well.

I hope so, but doubt most return on DL. I expect we have to go to portal for DL

In order to have a legit shot at winning the SEC west we need to be 2 deep at OL and DL. 4th quarter fatigue reared its' ugly head a few times this year.

Strategic recruiting is more important now than ever before. You better make sure all your underclassmen are ready to move into the starting rotation as juniors or they will be looking to transfer.

The portal won't allow you to be 2-deep everywhere with upperclassmen, those days are over, even for the Alabama's. Players want to play above all else.
