What about Wimbley? Is he moving to the DL? I have forgotten his position before the move to RB.

It's Holloway, Ojaipony's lovechild. Who will not be starting at end.
JoeKidd said that HWSNBN could potentially bump Holloway back. Seems like at least one person has a different player in mind as HWSNBN.

Wright will start at NT and Barnes and Wood will be the starters at DE.
As stallion said, Minor will be in the mix at DE or NT. Look for Eli Nabushoshi to get some time at DE, especially in pass rushing situations.
Maybe Jarrett Spencer will show something, I know he has been hurt a lot.
Would be great if Holloway is on the team, I wouldn't hold my breath though.
Hollie needs a RS year, wouldn't be surprised if he ends up on the OL too.

I believe Holloway has been moved to the OL form what I have been told.

all 85 will start on Offense, Mason will be given a fine selection from the 3rd and 4th string leftovers.

Yeah, I find that hard to believe.

I think this is accurate. Heard good things about Nabushoshi, although I haven't seen him myself. I do like the potential of Cameron Smith, especially on third and long. I think Minor starts the season as a second string DE. McCleneghan provides depth.
Riley-Ayers is the third string DT.

You might be right, although Hollie measured in at 6'4" and Jay Ratliff is often called "undersized" at 6'4".
Completely forgot about Nabushosi. He's in there somewhere, but where he fits, I don't know.

Think Stallion is saying Hollie would be a bit tall for 3-4 NG not undersized.

Hollie is just too tall to play NG and June says he may move to the OL anyway. Coach Mason has been playing guys at DE that run a 4.6/4.8. Hollie runs a 4.8, but if the boss wants him as an quick OL, so be it. I keep wondering when June will realize that Wimbley should be a quick NG and quit wasting the young man's talent sitting on the bench as a third string RB ?

Ditto. Wimbley was needed for depth. Now we have it at that position (don't forget Nlemchi, too, and Williams hopefully is back). I say it's time to try Wimbley back out at NG (poor kid had to slim down though and he'd had have to bulk back up to play at that position but doable by Fall).

That's what I'm saying, too (although I guess I didn't say it clearly). Jay Ratliff is the same height as Hollie, and for a while, Rat was called the best NT in the NFL. If he wasn't too tall to play in the middle of the 3-4, I'm not sure how Hollie could be. Rat plays with great leverage and stays low, and if Hollie can do that, he's not too tall, either, right?
June said he might end up on the offensive line, but is starting on defense, right? If so, he has to play in the middle if he's north of 300 pounds, doesn't he? Then at 4.8 isn't bad, either. Either way, I wonder if he redshirts.
I agree, I'd like to see Wimbley back on defense. With his strength and quickness, he could be a beast.

Wasn't Wimbley the one who when at NG that could only go one or two plays at a time in practice? And then at RB he gets winded after a 10 yard run. He may have some more issues than just conditioning. Something is not right when a young man working out with a team cannot last more than 2 or 3 plays at a time.
