A grad transfer OT with 3 years to play sounds like just what the doctor ordered for our OL depth.

Are we pounding the portal?

 

[Cusefan69]

Would love Cuse to bring in a guy like this. Has already been in a P5 S&C program, practiced against top talent and has some years still to play and was thought highly enough of by a school like UT to get offered.

[Toga]

I like the fact that the staff has offered a few Offensive tackles in the last couple of weeks if one commits and is ready to start from day 1 does that mean Servais would move back to center ?

There's no doubt what position is the staff's #1 priority is from the transfer portal. This guy looks like he holds a bunch in pass blocking.

You know. I showed restraint.

Yes, but I've been drinking, so no restraint here.

Was going to play guard at Texas

Would be great if we got two upperclassman OL a OT and interior but not sure if the numbers work for that.

My son is at Iowa Western. Place turns out to be a sports factory.

I think it comes down to whether Bergeron passed him on the pecking order or if he was too hurt to play tackle on the blind side.

If they find 1-2 OT's better than Servais than I think he should play Center next season.

I think this is the goal.

He was hurt. Healthy, it makes sense to keep Serv at T. Berg would be left out.

It makes sense that we are recruiting guys that have been developed.

I have family connections to the Texas program. Tyler is a good kid, thoughtful kid. I've gotten to stand next to him and he is probably the largest human being I've ever been around. He came to Texas a very soft 360 and worked hard to reshape his body to a more manageable 330 (as of last year - I have no idea how hard he worked in his opt out year). He's definitely a guard, but has the potential to be a road grader type. I hope he ends up here.
