Position Review-OL
Along with RBs probably the deepest area of the 2014 team is the offensive line. Guys who have started at one time or another are:
Lincoln Hansen 6'6, 300 SR on a number of preseason MAC teams, Andy Wylie 6'6 320 SO, Jake Hurcombe 6'1, 302 So., Campbell Allison 6'6. 330 Sr., Darion Terrell 6'4, 325 So., Kent Collins 6'1, 260 SR., Matt Thorton 6'4, 313 So., Rob McFadden 6'7, 310 Sr.
Jordan Erbes 6'3, 280 SR has game experience, Dwayne Brown 6'3, 340 R-Fr., Garrett Parker 6'5, 300 Jr., and Darian Miles 6'2, 290 Jr. do not have any game experience yet.
The next generation of offensive linemen is on the way:
Jeremy Hickey 6'4, 290, Ka'John Armstrong 6'4, 270, Dakota Tallman 6'5, 300, Chris Hendricks 6'5, 270, Chris Bukoski 6'5, 265. All true frosh and likely to redshirt. Reminds of the offensive class where Hansen, McFadden, Allison and Erbes all came it.
There appears to be two walk ons:
Dustin Cole 6'3 290 and Cody McIntire 6'5, 295. Whether any of these will switch over to the defensive line is an open question. The offensive line is more geared to a power running attack than the smaller faster linemen favored in passing oriented game. So far we have one verbal for offensive line next year.
