Way too early OLine projection

bhunt7

Four-Star Recruit
The Line improved quite a bit by the end of this past season and everyone returns! Even better is all the good stuff we've heard about the Redshirt Freshmen. 

I am far from an OLine expert and don't know much about what goes on behind the scenes but here's my way too early projection of next years line up. 

Would love to hear your thoughts and see your projections.

Returning Offensive Line Depth:

LT: Jaimes, Bando

LG: Hixon, Raridon

C: Jurgens, Farniok

RG: Wilson, Sichterman 

RT: Farniok,  Benhart

Potential 2020 Line:

LT:

1. Senior, Jaimes

2. RS Junior, Bando

LG:

1. RS Senior, Farniok

2. RS Junior, Hixson

C:

1. RS Sophomore, Jurgens

2. RS Sophomore, Farniok

RG:

1. RS Junior, Wilson

2. RS Junior, Sichterman

RT:

1. RS Freshman, Benhart 

2. RS Senior, Gaylord

I'm hoping both of our Freshmen, Turner Corcoran and Alex Conn get the luxury of redshirting.

 
Corcoran will probably end up on the depty chart like Benhart did last year. I'd slot him at backup LT and move Bando over to the right side 

 
Corcoran will have the benefit of being here for the spring semester and participating in winter workout, spring practice and spring game.  Benhart wanted to wrestle so he didn't enroll till last summer.

I think this is a good starting point. Could see Bando take over Wilson's spot. Gaylord could be backup LT. Corcoran backing up at LT possibly.

 
I'd like to know who is 'king of the boards' drill with this group.  I doubt it is either Matt Farniok or Brendan Jaimes.  My favorites for starters would be:

RT    76    Jaimes, Brenden SR

RG    71    Farniok, Matt RS SR

C      58    Wegener, Josh SR/TR

LG    70    Sichterman, Matt RS JR

LT     54    Benhart, Bryce SO

Backups

G/T    75    Hixson, Trent RS JR

           56    Wilson, Boe RS SR

           73    Bando, Broc RS JR

           XX    Corcoran, Turner FR

           57   Piper, Ethan RS FR

           78    Fritzsche, Jimmy RS FR

           77    Lynn, Michael    RS FR

           56    Shefke, Collin RS SO

           61    Balenger, Mitchell RS SO

C        52    Forbes, AJ RS SO

Is Gaylord even coming back?  He graduated and if he would like to stay on I'm sure coaches would enjoy that.  But he could just as easily do the transfer portal for some graduate hours somewhere else.

Did you like just completely remove Cam Jurgens from the equation lol

We just spent most of this season going through some major growing pains with the OLine finally starting to come together at the end of the season. It appears you feel it's in our best interest to start the process over again by completely changing things up at every position.

Are you just hoping for a major mix up OR do you think Austin will actually make some major changes?
