Our starting lineup next year

xHuskersx is pretty close to what I think. Only a few things I would adjust ..

Gilleylen ahead of Paul

Compton at MIKE

LaTravis iffy to stay at LB

Blue ahead of Prince

Not much I would do different, but just a few things. Good job, though.

I think Blue is in the mix...and I will say that Paul will win out

the thing that get me excited is to see the real talent on the offense....the line looks like the best in the North for sure and I would put our offense up agin Missouri's anyday

the Defense looks good if you just went by the tail of the tape and forgot last year....there is more size and speed on this defense then anywhere else in the north....Bo will have to do alot of work , but I'm stoked when I see this roster :box

 
Bo's going to reshirt freshman unless they are a phenom or the depth is just that poor at the position. He will be looking to develop long term talent. You will not see any freshman burn a redshirt to play special teams.

 
as far as bo 'not playing any freshmen,' i dunno... it sound like to me if you have the heart and the skills you will start.

While i cant speculate as well as you all on next years lineup, i can assure you that Murillo will be starting. I am sure it was just an oversight on your part, but if its not then none of your post means an awful lot

 
Ha...these silly line-ups don't even list a FB. We're gonna kill you guys if you ain't got you no hulking 230 lb fullback in there to stop our monster 190 lb defensive linemen.... <_<

i think we're gonna see ty moved to DE and Baker will be a DT. now i'd be surprised to see freshmen starting anywhere, but if Baker goes with DT he will play alot. Where as if he sticks to OL he might not.

Ah, how could I forget the FB? That is likely Kevin Thomsen's job to lose right now. Dude was murdering players last year while playing against our 1st stringers.

Blake Lawerence will be on the outside. I don't think he's big enough for Mike.

Swift as second string when he shared starting time this year??

Blue will start also.

 
I gotta say that I would love to have Culbert and Thenarse playing the safety positions. They just seem to feed emotionally off each other (and thats just on special teams).

Bo's Tampa 2 needs a smart rangy MLB that is really good in coverage, and that player is Blake Lawrence, as long as he hits the weights, and I know he will, he IMO will be moved to MLB.

Swift played no more then anyone else on the team, he is nothing special, and the younger player will get a shot with a simplified offense.

Blue is good and will see a lot of PT, but Bo loves speed and Prince is one of the fastest on the team.
