You don’t fix what’s not broken

Campbell should stay at LT

Rivers should stay at LG

Cooper should stay at RG

That leaves the only open spot being RT which is going to be Francis. Samson is going to be depth. If you upgrade over Cooper then good. If you upgrade over Clark then goos but there’s no need to create more questions by playing everybody at new positions.

If that’s how it works out in an open competition, that’s fine. But those guys need to continue to earn it on the daily.
 
If you can find someone better than Clark you take it in a heartbeat. He’s been a serviceable center. We just got so use to trash with Gaynor that Clark looked like the second coming based on comparison. I don’t want a serviceable Center. I want a nasty motherfu*ker who can uproot, drive, pin, gouge, bite, and call out the line calls. We’ve missed stunts ALL year in the middle of that line. I want a Center who can do it all.

Campbell gave up like 4 sacks against Clemple… he can sit. Campbell is broken and should not start on a high level OL. Only Rivers and Cooper

This kids feet are elite. Yes he will have some work to do but I don’t think that he has only gone against terrible competition (perhaps in games is what you meant). I saw some camp footage of him holding his own against reputable d lineman with good P5 offers. Yes, Mauigoa has been training at IMG and goes against Wayne in practice all the time. But don’t underestimate how ready this kid might be, especially if is an EE. Anyone know if that’s his plan, come in January?

This.

Now still Mauigoa could easily come in and be the man from Day 1. Zero surprise there. He’s elite also.

OL are hard to project but these guys both look like locks.

I think the exciting part of Samson is you can see elite LT traits in him already.

But if Mauigoa leaves here an All American Top 10 pick I don’t think it would surprise anyone

Would be by far the best recruiting at the position we’ve ever done to land both

Cooper is starting at a guard spot I think. He was one of the few guys actually moving players once he got in the game. Full off season and weight room will clean up a little of his body comp and he should be ready to dominate next year.

Cooper, Clark, Rivers all look solid headed into the off-season

Don’t want to pressure the young guys too much but they’ll push for time for sure

People are high on Campbell but I just don’t see it personally

No clue what’s going on with Zion but it’s still a lot of questionable depth though trending in the right direction if we can seal up this class with Samson

I think Clark has been playing really hurt all season. He’s good. Clearly been hobbled all season.

Just my opinion though I think we still need a lot of help on the line to your point.

Isn't backup duty "seeing the field"?

Sure but the discussion was about starters. If McCoy can’t help next year after getting a red shirt, he likely never will. I do believe he has talent to help us in 2023 but isn’t likely to be in the top 6-7.
