will have a different look to be sure. The seniors will be Alphonse Taylor, Grant Hill, and Brandon Greene. Of those three Alphonse seems to have the best chance to start and this year will have likely decide that with him going up against underclassman Bradley Bozeman. Grant Hill's starter expectations has been present since he arrived but now his health concerns has turned those expectations into doubt. Brandon Green hasn't made a serious push in the OL rotation unless you consider TE.

I'm saying all this because next year we'll have a OL unit that'll be rich in talent while lacking in experience. Players who'll be sophomores this year will include Cam, Casher, Bozeman, Peirsbacher, and Hassenaur. Besides Cam starting, if we can get these guys into the rotation as much as possible this year will go a long way in getting them the experience when 16' arrives. These guys will shoulder most of the heavy lifting.

This year's OL class coming in will likely redshirt but what a talented unit Mario assembled. Cotton, Warmack, Kennedy, and Womack will (and need to) provide instant backup for the upperclassmen. In time I could see Cotton and Warmack playing guard, Kennedy Center, and Womack playing RT.

All in all, I believe Mario will field an excellent OL with each year as each OL recruiting class being as impressive as the last. Lastly, I mentioned above how Cam will start this year but two more sophs could also join him with Peirsbacher and Bozeman. The possibility of three sophs starting!!!
