This year is still up in the air, but with everyone questioning the talent level, I thought it woudl be interesting to look at the potential lineups for next year:

OFFENSE
LT: Donnal, Van Sloten
LG: Scherff/ Tobin
C: Ferentz, Blythe
RG: MacMillan/Blythe
RT: MacMillan, Van Sloten
QB: Vandy, Derby, Ruddock
RB: Coker, McCall, Canzeri, Freshman
WR: KMM /Shumpert, Hillyer
WR: Davis, Grant, Bullock
TE: CJ Fed, Derby, Hamilton
FB: Rogers, Weismann

Defense

DE: Alvis, Spears
DE: Pasat, Raymon, McMinn Recruit?
DT: Carl Davis, Gaglione
DT: Cooper, Johson (recruit)
LB: Hitchens, Poggi
LB: Morris, Alston
LB: Kirksey, Dibona, Collins
CB: Lowery, Castillo
CB: Hyde, Campbell, Lomax
S: Law, Recruit
S: Miller, Sleeper


K: Meyer
P: Kornbarth

KR: Canzeri, Bullock

I'm sure I missed some people.
What do you guys think?

Mark my words...Austin Blythe will be a starting guard next year. He'll be 300lbs of nasty and quickness. They won't be able to keep him out of the lineup. I believe Tobin and Orne are done after this year also.
 
Not gunna lie, Defensive line depth is the only thing that worries me. Would love to land Darboh or another Freshman WR that could come right in and play.

Walsh could also be a factor on the oline. We've had some really nice Oline classes the past 2 years. Not worried there.

Bigach should factor in the Dline as well.
 
Cooper and Davis as starting DT's has a lot of potential to wreak havoc. Potential alone doesn't get us wins, but I like where they should be a year from now.
 
With that many new linemen without any experience things could get really, really ugly. Pretty much always a recipe for failure.

Also, could be one reason KF is content on playing all these Fifth year seniors and walkons. Let these guys hold down the fort while the current underclassmen get strong enough to take their place in the lineup.
 
Raymon is the guy who I can't wait to see...this group has the potential to be very good, not sure if it will be next year though.

Then you might want to do a little snooping around. Dude almost left immediately and word from those watching practice is that they were not too impressed. Additionally, sounds like he and coach K aren't getting along swimmingly.
 
There is a ridiculously small chance that Reiff stays, but I highly doubt it. Also, we could potentially lose Keenan Davis to the NFL. Don't forget that Rodney Coe is scheduled to return in the spring. I've heard he's put on some weight and he could be an impact player at DE if we decided to use him there.
 
Coe scheduled to come in Spring? I don't think that is how it works when you don't qualify out of high school and actually play in JUCO.

But I do agree he ends up on the Dline eventually.

Wrong. If you go the JUCO route, you have to put in two years.

yeah unless Coe got enough credits and 0% shot of Davis going pro. McNutt will have enough trouble getting drafted.
