    You mean 2021?    No need to take 2 seasons off surely.   Med redshirt this year (or nothing if no season happens probably).  

    Sad deal to blow a knee before practice even starts.  

    Lose 2 guys already - not a good sign but ?

    He didn't redshirt last year so he still has his normal redshirt available to use.

     

    Edit: Sorry I thought you were talking about Newsome. If you were talking about Nixon, then he would just redshirt. You can't apply for a medical redshirt until the end of your career.

    How I see it this year

     

    Starters

     

    LT Jameis  *LG Wilson *C Jurgens   *RG Farniok * RT Benhart

     

    2nd String

     

    LT Brant Banks- LG Ethan Piper- C Will Farniok - RG Broc Bando-  RT Christian Gaylord

     

    Noulii somewhere in 2nd string, could replace Bando but it will depend on his eligibility status.

     

    A couple things to go with this

     

    1. I do not see Wilson  being a backup with those amount of starts. Ethan Piper could be really good but I haven't seen enough to unseat him just yet.

    2.Trent Hixon might not play much this year. I think the younger guys will just be better. I remember one game last year he got thrown to the ground. One play doesn't define him and I hope he improves and proves me wrong. 

    3. We will replace a lot of starters next year but the amount of depth and talent on the line excites me more than anything. We legit could have a multitude of dudes available to rotate in.

    4. I hope Gaylord is healthy enough for a senior day start.  If Benhart struggles I could see Gaylord rotate in on occasion while Austin coaches him up on the sideline. 

    5. I like our numbers on the o-line and it will be fun to watch these guys grow and complete for starting spots down the road. 

    That may be so. However, he will need to play better than last year if he wants to keep his spot. Lots of young guys will be on his heels.
