You can always move inside...Longo could very easily move inside, same with Hall, Shugarts as well...

It sucks when you don't have depth on the outside...Much like this year PSU game and 2 years ago when Barton went down and we didn't have a RT...

I would honestly say that if we land Hall we should be done with this class, and then go get some big timers next year...

Not only that, but we still have a bunch of guys on the roster that can and should play inside.....

Next year...Boren(JR), Browning(JR), Blankenship(SO), Miller(JR), not to mention Linsley, and like you said Shugarts can move inside.

Only Cordle will be lost after next season!

This year would be a great year for very athletic OL recruits.....

I agree it's much easier to slide inside then out but it just seems we have room for interior OL at this point. Even with Hall, I would love to see us go after Martinez. My guess is that before going after a kid halfway across the country, they want to see him visit first. Then again, he did come to camp...

Did I miss something.... ?

Scout reporting an offer and a Michigan game official visitor on his profile.

He's quite possibly coming for The Game, but at this point he does not hold an offer. The reported offer was refuted a while back. But I really DO wish that this kid gets an offer. There have been kids playing for SC and others that have turned out to be really great players that I wish we had gone after harder, including the ND verbal this year.

Not offering this kid is baffling to me...

Thank you. I've been wondering/waiting for yours or any other BP insiders take. This whole situation concerning him is baffling...on many levels.

What, very specifically, are we waiting on? For Hall? For academics? Competition evaluation? Physical tests? What can it be?
