[QUOTE="Deltajacket, post: 221819, member: 143"] We actually have decent depth on the DL if you take a look at the spring roster. I counted 5 scholarship DTs and 7 scholarship DEs. That's 12 scholarship guys to cover 4 spots. One or two of them bounce back and forth between DT /DE. I'll agree with you that DT is a tough spot to fill, but don't forget that we only play two of them at a time. OL wise depth is always seems to be an issue in the spring. Our guys seem to cross train at multiple OL positions but when you have to put 5 on the field every down, you certainly need more than the 11 scholarship guys that we show for spring. With Burden out and Griffin hobbled, it forces walk-on's to play a substantial role. I know we've had several scholarship OLs quit the team for various reasons over the past two years, but that type thing should be expected and accounted for in recruiting. I agree with you completely on the running backs. We put two A backs and one B back on the field at a time. Yet we have 12 scholarship A and B backs available for spring. Percentage wise our recruiting looks a little skewed. I hope we focus more on the big men in the trenches in this upcoming recruiting cycle. [/QUOTE]
