84HuskerLaw Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I seem to recall a mention lately that the coaches are expecting to have solid 8 or 9 linemen that have legitimate skills and we should be able to find a solid bunch. From there, you find a couple more decent back ups to spell guys for a few snaps here and there for a month or so while more young'uns get more comfortable. We should be OK absent serious injuries. But we usually have to count on several during season so it could be touch and go at times. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted August 3, 2016 Author Share Posted August 3, 2016 I get the feeling they like the 7 guys listed above. After that, there are 2-3 more that are close but a step behind. Quote Link to comment
Scratchtown Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Things look good at that position but I'm sure things won't be great the first 2-3-4-5 ish games of the year. Toward the end of the year I expect them to be playing pretty well. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted August 5, 2016 Author Share Posted August 5, 2016 Dwayne Johnson didn't even make the fall camp roster for the second year in a row. Kind of surprised he's even on the team at this point. 2 Quote Link to comment

Mavric Posted August 5, 2016 Author Share Posted August 5, 2016 I noticed this last year in some practice pics - didn't ever pay enough attention during games but obviously they were doing it. I thought perhaps it was a shotgun thing but apparently not. Don't understand how that can work very well. Quote Link to comment

famoustitles Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 http://www.bnd.com/news/local/community/highland-news-leader/hnl-sports/article93703872.html Here's a really good article and interview with Tanner Farmer. He's not lacking confidence for him and the team. I'm really looking forward to see how he performs this coming year! Quote Link to comment

Husker Psycho Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Gates... Farmer... Foster... are all from the 2014 recruiting class. Gates and Farmer were 4 star recruits. That was a good recruiting class for us for offensive lineman. 1 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted August 14, 2016 Author Share Posted August 14, 2016 This appeared to be the depth chart at the scrimmage today: LT - Gates, Gaylord, Farniok LG - Foster, Barnett, Raridon/Hannon C - Utter, Decker RG - Farmer, Whitaker, Wilson/Brokop RT - Knevel, Hahn Quote Link to comment
