I have been a longtime follower of this board, but decided to start posting. I am a former offensive lineman that played football for 14 years, culminating with a career at a division II school. After years of looking up to players like Rimington, Aaron Graham, and Dominic Raiola, I was extremely impressed with Justin Jackson in his first start on Saturday. They used him out in space often and he was quick, physical, and always finishes plays in a dominant position. I noticed him early, and couldn't stop watching his great effort and intensity throughout the game. I know center was a concern coming into the year, but i thought Jackson played great as well as the rest of the group up front.
I apologize for the long post, just wanted to put in my 2 cents and give some love for the big guys up front.
Thanks for listening.
