It will be interesting to see how this kid looks in comparison to the rest of the class considering he's a year older and had an extra year in the weight room!

Leavitt and McCray and Lowery are 3 of the biggest OL recruits that we have had recently....all 3 are in that 6'6-300 pound plus range and who have the high school pancake city vids,

Proper attitude and weight training and good health should make them 3 of our best recruits.

Was thinking the same thing. I think we got some very good lineman in this class.

For the most part, Frank has redshirted OL coming in as freshman, right? That extra year in development in a position like OL where size/physical development is noticeably important.

Even if not from year 1 to 2... From 4 to 5...

I've seen crazier things happen.

For the most part, yes, though, lately I have seen youngsters break through across the line. Wood, Watson, Powell, Lucas and McQueen all have played very early.

Partly they played early because of the gap year in recruiting, and because of the injuries to Johnson, Lechner, Prior, and Smith last year.Together it meant younger linemen on the field, which in turn hurt the program. The situation is much different now. The 2011 was huge (after adding Everhart, and moving Haser from DL). Those guys, plus a few from 2011 and 2013 shoud tote the load the next two years, so hopefully the incoming guys can redshirt. (Projected Starts for next year in bold). I see the players from 2014 really emerging when they are redshirt Sophomores, as the class of 2011 graduates.

2009 - James Davis (left), Skyler Allen (didn't redshirt), Sam Johnson, John Lechner, John Prior (xfered in)
2010 - Mark Smith (out the last two years), Bryce Dietz (career ended)
2011 - Mike Curtis, Mike Lucas, Mark McQueen, Lucas Powell, Jacob Welter, Seth Everhart (walkon), Justin Haser
2012 - Gibbons, Watson
2013 - Wood, Murdock
2014 - Leavitt, Lowery, Pruehs, McCray, Dudziak, Langenkamp

He is not in the eDirectory, and I think I heard that he would be coming in the Fall.

Are we sure he is coming? He is not on the new roster link. Also, don't you grad from a Post-Graduate school or JC to become eligible?

Nobody despises to lose more than I do. That's got me into trouble over the years, but it also made a man of mediocre ability into a pretty good coach. Woody Hayes
