This may make you feel better about the future of LSU's offensive line.

Projected 2005 Offensive Offensive Line
LT 76 Andrew Whitworth Senior
G 71 Nate Livings Senior
C 64 Rudy Niswanger Senior
G 68 Terrell McGill Senior
RT 75 Brian Johnson Junior
*And, I believe that Terrell McGill and Nate Livings still have a redshirt year that they could use. If McGill gets beat out by Arnold or Herm maybe he would consider using it.

Projected 2006 Offensive Line
LT 75 Brian Johnson Senior
G 73 Will Arnold Junior
C 63 Ryan Miller Sophomore
G 74 Brett Helms Sophomore
RT 79 Herman Johnson Sophomore
*Five senior offensive linemen on scholarship in 2006.

Projected 2006 Reserves
77 Peter Dyakowski Senior
59 Doug Planchard C 6-3 291 Senior
78 Paris Hodges OT 6-5 316 Senior
69 Garett Wibel OL 6-3 295 Senior
Max Holmes C 6-4 286 Redshirt Freshman
Ciron Black OL Redshirt Freshman
61 Josh Dicharry OL 6-2 308 Senior (walk-on)
60 Michael Murphy OL 6-2 276 Sophomore (walk-on)
67 Robert Smith OL 6-2 259 Sophomore (walk-on)
*And, this list does not include any offensive line prospects that Miles may sign during the rest of 2005 or 2006.

 

Without a doubt we are just fine next year.

 

I thought I read somewhere that Dyawkoski and Hodges are transferring. Not sure.

 

If that JUCO lineman, Meyers' commitment holds true, we'll have yet another solid lineman (Meyer's is 6'6", 360lbs.) and I believe he would be a Junior next season if he doesn't redshirt.

 

BB, you're a little out of the loop I guess. Myers has committed to USC already, yesterday.

 

Beat me to it. I just saw it on rivals and I was coming back to correct myself.

Damn you're fast! ;D :thumb:

 

It's hard to keep up with everything that goes on, especially when the announcement is made on the left coast at night.

 

it's a testament to our talent level when a guy like garret wibel, a kid who dominated at 5A Rummel and was a top recruit, will never be a starter according to max's projection. I mean this guy pancaked more people in HS than ihop!

btw - congrats - you made dandydon today!

 

Don't think we have to worry, the line has plenty of depth for the next 2 years. that gives Miles another year to pick up some o linemen.:thumb:
