Smith at Center was predicated upon how quickly the coaches figured Yoshi could become the starting LT correct? So is it ok to assume that Hardrick is looking like everything he is supposed to be then?
Really not sure what to make of Mendoza, he's a guy with a ton of talent and speed but for some reason can't find a place on the squad. Understood why he was moved to WR with the HB depth and then moved back to HB when Q was dismissed last year, but I'm surprised he's making such a move to defense and not back to WR or just staying at HB now... it makes sense on offense in that with Mike McNeill moving over there's depth at the slot that he may not see time there and he's probably not an X/Z type, but there is more than ample depth at corner as it's easily the deepest position on the roster and not sure why he'd be put in a position to have to learn another position again with almost no chance of playing the field.
