Minnesota now has 7 P4 transfers incoming and only one P4 transfer exiting

Yeah, hasn’t been much talk of the lack of outgoing transfers, but that has been pretty impressive so far this year as well. Pretty much Daniels being the only substantial loss so far.

And I don’t think they brought Daniels in to start. I hope he does, but this feels like a depth addition for OSU.

2 big time recruits. Anyone want to bet that BC will change their techniques and they will be less effective?

Jesus, you're a tool. Callahan has put multiple OL into the NFL at multiple schools, and will be putting another one there this year, probably in the first round. How many NFL OL have you coached?

Maybe you would be willing to decrease your consulting rate and the staff would hire you just to, you know, keep an eye on things to make sure they stay on the up and up?
 


Another great day for the future of Gopher football.

Portal recruiting has been superb and the schedule should be manageable next year. Great chance to have a great season.

I only talk OL technique with people that have done knowledge on the subject. You clearly do not.

Yeah, but imagine how many more we would have had if Jack Jones was coaching?!?! The guy clearly knows talent, he laughed at the idea anyone would want Daniels like 7 minutes before he committed to some crap school in Ohio.

Just read the short article by Burns. Ray has been a swing OL but mostly played RG during his time at WV and Kentucky. This will be his last year of eligibility. If the two transfer tackles win those jobs and Johnson holds down C, you’d probably expect Ray, Beers, Lewis, and Nelson to compete for the G spots with Roy as the swing T…or Ray now if he doesn’t win a G spots. All in all a pretty decent spot to land after losing 3 starting OL.

G spot competition sounds fierce 😲

It could certainly work out that way but keep in mind the guy from UCF also has position flexibility. He played quite a bit of guard prior to this year. If one of our younger tackles emerges. He could push the UCF transfer back inside. It’s a good thing, we have flexibility with him, Lewis has played both spots, and Ray has played all over.
 

question - if they move Johnson to a G, are there any other viable options at C?

I'm just not sold on Johnson at C. maybe it's fallout from watching JMS play the position, but Johnson just seems too shaky at C. I note that Marcellus Marshall has started at C during his career. I'd take a look at him at C in Spring Ball just to see what it looks like.

Seems I may be in the minority, but I hold out hope that our homegrown kids are going to develop enough to were one or two of these transfers become depth guys.

No, that's my point as well. Ray and Marshall both can play all over the line, so none of the homegrown OL should feel replaced and there are spots up for grabs. I feel good that we brought in some experienced and versatile guys but the spots are there for the taking for the young guys as well.
