3 EMU defenders......Crosby, Hoying & Calhoun, with Hoying the highest overall.

2 EMU linemen......Nielsen & Leatiota (somewhat surprising). Congrats to them, obviously doing very good individual jobs, but if the entire OLine isn't working well as a unit, I think that's why we're seeing the struggles.

4 out of the 5 Sophomores, and Leatiota a Junior.

I didn't realize that Liatiota I was a junior. I assumed he was a senior because he played at a Juco. At least emu will have two or three years with this group of linemen. Still needs an infusion of more Talent though.

Yes the entire OLine returns next year, but the starters very likely to change, especially if the struggles continue. Highly likely Sow takes one of the OT spots next year, Donnellon pushes for more & more playing time with another year of experience, and I have a feeling the Rohrschneider kid improves rapidly into the 2 deep at least. STill need an All-MAC caliber OT (or 2) with 2-3 years of eligibility from the Juco ranks.
