How's OL looking at this point?

What do we think the OL is going to look like? Starters and first few off the bench?

I hope well. These are the unsung guys who are part of the puzzle that makes the team tick.

Looked fine Saturday against what is advertised as a top 15 defense.

I think the key early in the season will be how they deal with d-line stunts. Last year that seemed to be a week point early in the season and was one of the contributing factors to the loss against UNC.

Offensive lines can change a lot over the course of a few weeks and definitely over a few months, without changing the players

I've been a part of a couple football teams that got stomped on the LoS in August in scrimmages and then beat the same opponent into a pulp in October.

We'll see when the real stuff starts happening

Sounds like it has been:

LT — Nathan Roy
LG — Greg Johnson
C — Ashton Beers
RG — Marcellus Marshall
RT — Dylan Ray

Roy was hurt, so hoping it is minor, if not we are thin at left tackle

Sort of surprised the Washington transfer does not appear to be a starter. Thought he was more of a sure thing to start than Ray or Marshall.

According to Tony Liebert, that transfer (Kahlee Tafai) is battling with Roy at LT.

If Roy beats him out, that says more about Roy than Tafai, IMO. Could be Roy is just that good. Either way, they rotate in plenty, so both are going to be needed.
