@TerryP You're thinking all this changes at the end of the month, right?

When Coach calls for my input, I will refer him to this article.

It's a pretty good list: the right names for a two deep. A few I don't agree with (and I wonder if the graphic is just "content filler." If we look at his "Most Experienced" lineup he's got two tackles which I don't see in the first five. George is more of an inside guy. Randolph is one I see more as the sixth guy off the bench in a heavy formation.

I don't believe we'll see the same group finish the spring as we'll see start in the fall. Steen's arrival in the fall shakes up the tackle(s) position. Right now I expect to see Steen and Latham on the outside, Ekiyor and Cohen as guards, and a battle for center between Dalcourt and McLaughlin.

I'm anxious to see what Booker brings to the table. It's very rare for a freshman to be ready to man a tackle spot but that staff has told him they expect him to compete for the position this spring.
