Bethley at #11 seems not high enough. I can't think of more than 5 guys possibly more important than him.

agree as the best of gary's teams have been strong in the offensive and defensive lines and bethley is a big key to the defensive line.

think hunt and wells should be higher as someone absolutely has to step up wide receiver aside from taye.

coy has to get better at center against physical interior defensive linemen, but he isn't the only returning starter for the frogs. myers has 13 career starts in the offensive line and hollins was a starter in 2018 before the injuries.

all three definitely need to elevate their games, but there is a bit of experience in the interior of the frogs offensive line

I thought something like this was true about the OL but was too lazy to look it up. This makes sense

McMillon was bad last year, and Hollins was a disaster in 2018. If Hollins is playing, we're in trouble. Good kid, but just not good enough at football

coy was physically overmatched and has to get stronger

he has shown good feet, understands angles well, but struggled against big interior defenders

reminds me a bit of hunt in his development and the way he plays the position

Hunt's a good comp.

Also, is Q White a tackle or guard this year?

I'm looking forward to seeing Jaquaze. He basically had a redshirt year, and we need depth across the DL.

great question on white and i am curious to see how players get moved around the oline by anderson.

thomsen had white as a tackle, anderson seemed to like taller guys so maybe he slides inside and gives the frogs another body inside to work with to try to find at least three solid guys inside.

off the top of my head they have coy, hollins, wes, white, any myers who have played inside at one time or another, the grad transfer from csu is a possibility, you have lanz, burnette and avilla who have been in the program going on 3 years, plus hayes and bolden.

they should be able to find 3 guys and then you still have the questions at tackle

sorrells and pat are guys i am curious if they are going to contribute. don't forget george ellis as well. he is a guy who needs to step up or get passed over
