Offensive line making stridesMT’s offensive line has a lot of young talent, and the growth is starting to be seen.
Freshmen Chandler Brewer and Josh Fannin have seen an increased amount of reps as a few players remain out of practice. During 1-on-1 drills, Brewer showed great footwork and hands against a pass rusher.
Redshirt junior Maurquice Shakir has continued to improve as well. Shakir held his ground against junior Peter Bailey during 1-on-1 drills, showing off his enhanced blocking ability.
I’ve already talked about the size of this crop of offensive linemen. If this group continues to learn under positional coaches Geep Wade and Rick Mallory, they will be a hard group to get through.
This is more music to my ears. Based on all of these updates the starting CB's will be Bones and Singletary. It also looks like Hale will start at DE. Backups beng Nesmith and Bailey. Bailey must be out top pass Rusher. I wonder if Jones is healthy this fall as well.
Good thing we are loaded at RB. Thomas can't stay healthy.
I'm ready for football to start now!. Surprised we are starting the 5th instead of the 29th
