Former walkon beau Barnes is promising. Zach wood will have a year of maturity. I wouldn't be surprised if some Grenier winds up with a medical related extra year

Won't Spike Davis be around next year also?

I would think that's not as far-fetched as some think.
Yes, Spike (Davis) will be back, along with Margus Hunt and Torlan Pittman and Beau Barnes. Zach Wood hasn't played, but I think the coaches really like him. Darrian Wright has played some and looks quick and stronger than I thought he'd be at nose tackle. Favreau will be back. Cameron Smith looks like an exceptionally promising athlete, at least on special teams, and some of his teammates have said good things about what he has done defensively in practice.

Seems to me we could use a JUCO DE next year big time. Moreland, if he gets in school, could be another DE option. It would be good to have him here in spring as planned. I like the size and speed of two of the 2012 DL recruits offered up to this point, but I don't see them ready to go next year.

What about O'Guin? Will he pan out?

Moreland should be a olb. O'guinn will be coming back from a severe knee injury, hopefully he can be worked into the rotation at the nose. The recruit that could be in the DE rotation that isn't here yet is Christian holloway.

Didn't realize O'Guin was hurt. Hope he can regain his strength and fill in at nose guard.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Stephon Sanders at DE next year at all. What injury does Grennier have that would allow a medical redshirt-he's already played in 4 years-too bad he doesn't have another year-kinda wasted his freshman year playing in 2 meaningless games

Put Sanders anywhere you want because he is very good, with the exception of receiver. I am sure he is already called Stephon "hands of stone" Sanders.

Is Moreland going to be able to enroll in the Spring?
