[QUOTE="danny daniel, post: 163076, member: 1376"] CPJ indicated that while he was comfortable with the AB situation, some had specific talents that he might utilize in their best roles. I am including Willis as a scholly AB in this discussion. In 2013 we used 8 ABs in rotation ( Bostic, Zenon, Andrews, Days, Snoddy, Perkins, Hill, and Godhigh, altho Goodhigh got a lot of possessions). Hill was ill and missed a lot of PT but I believe we finished the season with 7 healthy ABs. In 2014 we started the season with 7 ABs (Bostic, Zenon, Andrews, Days, Snoddy, Perkins, and Hill). Days moved to BB in mid season and Snoddy and Zenon had season ending injuries, leaving 4 healthy ABs for the OB. In 2015 we have 7 AB candidates (Snoddy, Willis, Searcy, Lynch, and Freshmen Cottrell, T Marshall, and Jarrett). All three freshmen could play but it would be nice to RS one with Benson, Green, and Gantt coming in 2016. Walk-on McClellan could also get som AB playing time. Roles: I would speculate that that Snoddy would get the most possessions on all sorts of plays. Searcy and Lynch are more likely for sweeps and pitches and pass receptions. Willis is the better blocker and suitable for short yardage as he is a strong down hill runner. It will be very interesting to see which freshman does what and how well, but we should get a good look at at least two of them in 2015 and they could be significant contributors along with the "role players".
