Who is the front runner for the job once Wes graduates? Is it wide open, or are there a couple who are clearly better?
Sounds like the coaches are pretty high on Crouch, but he's also the only one of the backups that's had a chance to practice.

If our o-line can improve, Vaughn and Moran could become one of the best RB duos in the Big Ten, if not the nation.
Agree wholeheartedly that we definitely need solid O-line guys for this team, but can we please get excited about locking in three high-level commits early in a class at key skill positions, something we haven't seen in a good 6 years or so? Pretty please? Thanks.I am excited about these guys as all of you, but let's temper these expectations a bit. Yes they are two four stars, three when you add Moran, but the big boys sign four and five star guys each year AND they run behind multiple four and five star OL.
I know I am a kol joy, but I see these wild expectations every year in bball and now football.

At worst, it is not bad news. I think given what most would consider to be the shaky status of the staff, this has to be considered very good news.I haven't heard about any (sane) fans booking Rose Bowl tickets or even BIG Championship tickets, have you?
Fans are right to be very happy about the recent commits. I think most understand that the team has a long way to go.

So I saw that Dwayne Hendrix visited Pitt last weekend. Any chance he visits us? Have we evened reach out? Would be a phenomenal pick up in my mind. He would probably start day 1 after his sit out year as a redshirt sophomore.
And of course Tim Salem was recruiting him for us, he's now coaching @Pitt

If he goes to Pitt it isn't because of Tim Salem
So it's nice that we keep getting offensive recruits and all, but our offense isn't our issue, it's defense. Any news on a 4 star defensive lineman, linebacker, cb committing soon? That's our needs. We want lots of 4 stars all over, but our d is the NEED!
