[QUOTE="Jerry the Jacket, post: 696876, member: 65"] Well when the other 3 freshmen get here that will make 19 guys plus a handful of walk ons competing for 5 positions. Most teams actually only play 7 to 8 guys in their offensive line rotations. that means 11 or more guys standing around and hoping something happens that might allow them to play. So far, I don't think Austin Smith has played a down. He has been here a couple of years and I think at some point you either prove you can play at this level or not. I don't have any inside knowledge but just based on my experience over time, guys like Austin and Luke Johns, who has a similar track record, will not be impact players. They contribute on the scout teams and certainly have value but you have to wonder if they are satisfied to just serve in that capacity. That is why I would not be surprised if they decided to transfer. With such high numbers, the coaching staff will have to encourage some movement to insure proper roster management as well. Go Jackets! [/QUOTE]
