🏈 Look for the OL to get shuffled some...

With a couple cupcakes in our path on the schedule, don't be surprised if some experimenting goes on along the O-Line tomorrow. Specifically, trying to get the best 5 back on the field... that will almost certainly include Grant Hill at this point.

I'm stoked to see Grant Hill get in, heard good things about him. Definitely gonna light a fire.

Yeah I'm expecting Hill and Kellen Williams to play alot. Really, really hope Blake Sims gets to play alot, maybe even the entire second half tomorrow.

This might be the starting line up tomorrow:

G. Hill @ RT
A. Shephard @ RG
A. Steen @ C
Koundijo Bros at their normal places.

^^ You really think Steen gets the start at center? I would think we want to get Lindsay the first team reps.

What I was told earlier today - just take it FWIW - is similar to what Porter posted. The coaches are really high on Grant Hill. And since they are looking for the best five to get on the field, that's how the move may shake out. I was surprised too. I thought Shepard would be the odd man out. I really liked how Lindsay played last weekend. IF this is how it plays out - I'm no insider; what do I know? - then I think it sends a reminder of why Lindsay was behind Kelly all this time. I think it also sends a resounding message about Leon Brown as well.

Did Steen ever play Center? I know he didnt start but I kinda forgot and didn't pay attention as the half went on.

No, not at all. And I am perfectly fine with that.

Alphonse Taylor, well, we see where he is and why. Good thing we had a game like we did today. Kids like him need them badly. He did settle down and get into a groove as the game went on.

Grant Hill did okay. No bad mistakes, no tremendous plays. At least not one on either side of the extremes that my relatively untrained eye noticed.
