    It seems the offensive line is down to about 6 players since the loss of Wilkerson which tells me some of these recruits of the last couple of years are not getting the job done or else they would be inserted in the lineup rather than shuffling around a couple of guys. The line next year could be a big concern especially if Whitworth leaves.

    I don't think so.

    Maybe Saban doesn't want to waste a redshirt year on some of these top guys like Ryan Miller for 3 games...

    It will be young but has the potential to be good.

    Herm....Arnold....Niswanger.....Livings.....Kevin Meyers

    thats a possible starting five. With Ryan Miller, Brian Johnson, Planchard, McGill, etc etc, as reserves.

    And If AW does stay, they will be really really good.

    We will miss Big Ben though....we already do. Great Leader.

    Who is Kevin Meyers?

    Whitworth going to the NFL as a junior would be a joke.

    He definitely will be back.

    he is likely definitely gone regardless his lack of production this year. I sure hope not, however.


    Looks like Ryan Miller if he develops as expected could be one of the best we have had here in a long time.

    I think linemen just take longer to mature. I mean Niswanger is playing full time for the first time this year, and he was from the same class as Clayton, Wilkerson, Spears, and Whitworth.

    Kevin Meyers is the JUCO OL that just committed.....CNS wanted him badly. #1 JUCO OL this year. Hopefully he can step in right away.

    People in the know have said that AW is a most likely a gonner. Supposedly he has graded out well all year :nope: and is still likely a #1 draft pick. I think if he stays he's a top 10 pick next year, but what do I know. I'd probably jump at the money too.
