June isn’t here yet.He won't - he's a Senior.
How about a practice uniform thread? Wouldn't that be fun?
or even better, now that people are invited how about a practice attendance thread. Then every can lament the fact nobody is taking Fran up on his offer to come watch.How about a practice uniform thread? Wouldn't that be fun?

Good eye. There’s also one picture where it appears Enrique is playing LT. Looks like they’re moving the OL all over the place around to try to figure out the best fit.
What I found interesting in this is it looks a OL with Cruz at LG and the Georgia transfer Miller at LT. Granted it's early days but it caught my eye.

Whatever it takes. I want the best 5!

Wasn't Miller the Virginia transfer?

If he adopts the new S&C program WATCH OUT. Otherwise, maybe he chooses elsewhere.I wonder if Ellis will get on the field? He needs to lose about thirty pounds to play effectively.
That was my thinking too. Maybe he's better suited at guard.Cruz wasn’t that good last season at tackle but he’s a great athlete so maybe guard, with different assignments and where he can use his athleticism to pull is a better fit.

Yes, when I do these too quickly, I can be a typo machine!Isn’t the R Relentless?
springs the time to experiment. Fall needs to be dialed inGood eye. There’s also one picture where it appears Enrique is playing LT. Looks like they’re moving the OL all over the place around to try to figure out the best fit.
I like it.
He’s from Virginia but he transferred in from UGA.Wasn't Miller the Virginia transfer?
Yeah I think people need to accept the fact that being the best of a bad group doesn’t make you good necessarily. He’s struggled with bad weight from Day 1 and his upper body hasn’t really changed. Honestly I think you’re talking months and months of work to get his body into a position where he can compete with some of the new guys coming in. And even at that - I don’t know if he’d be in our top 4 OG’s. I think his body just needs a lot more work than that.I think we need to let Ellis go, guys. I’m not sure why the board latches to certain players who have continuously not proven it.

I’m kind of at the point now that he needs significant work body wise to be a consistent contributor (and by that I specifically mean not chronically injured) and you have to ask yourself is the juice worth the squeeze.Well, does he HAVE to be in the top 4 OG's, to be worth keeping?
Honestly, with the injury issues we've consistently had with our OL over the years, we could do worse than having a former starter, waiting in the wings in the 3-deep.
I still have nightmares about having Rhino as a starting OL.
(and that's nothing against Mr Elmore, just the horrific lack of depth we had)
IF we can replace him with a better, more mobile dude, then sure -
you want Fran to get as many big, mobile, hostile, talented OL as he can.
But if he can't, or can't right away, then having this dude around is a no-brainer, as long as he's doing the work and doing what the coaches ask of him.
I haven’t been looking at the spring practice and winter workouts with 100% vigilance, but I have been checking them pretty closely.Yeah I think people need to accept the fact that being the best of a bad group doesn’t make you good necessarily.

Best thing for him might be a redshirt year just to get his body correct.
