Oline tidbits
Levon Myers mentioned in his podcast interview (posted on Huskiewire) that Josh Ruka is playing next to him this year. That means that either Ruka has moved to left guard or Myers has moved to right tackle. The former seems more likely than the latter. We heard earlier that Lincoln Howard has moved to guard. That implies that the number one oline left to right is Levon Myers, Josh Ruka, TBD, Lincoln Howard, Max Scharping. Center candidates would probably be Shane Evans, Luke Shively and Scott Topole.

Ruka has dropped close to 20 lbs from last year. Big Ron Brown keeps going up, he's at 365.

Scharping 6'6" 311
Ruka 6'5" 312
Myers 6'5" 309
Howard 6'5" 307

That is a very big/tall line.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Hughes and Veloz get some PT this year too

Scharping is going to get drafted when he leaves here. Going to be a big player the next couple of seasons.

Have met his parents tailgating a few times. He has a close knit family.

I'm excited to see what Velez looks like, was impressed with him out of HS.
Pride mention Max should get drafted, those are big words he must be very athletic. Myers should get a hard look. Bostod gives value to this group.

The starters are the same as noted before. Ryan Roberts has moved to O-line from tight end.

Can't believe Myers is a senior already. Where has the time gone?
