Trotter and Fernandez from last years OL class seem to be busts too from what I've heard.

Trotter appear as the backup LT, per this unofficial depth chart:

Is it accurate? Who knows.
I saw that and it surprised me. I was hearing lack of work ethic, maybe this means he got the memo and turned things around. Or he is such a talent that it doesn't matter. Either way I hope he becomes an all MAC lineman!

I hope they keep him on DL. I actually like this recruit too and glad we jumped on him early. He might run a 5.5-5.9 forty yard dash, but if we can shave his time down to a sub 5.0 flat he can really pose problems for opponents. He has to learn to be more saavy with his handplay in the trenches but I trust our DL coach to coach him up there. At his size he will recquire a double team which will allow our LBs to stop the run. He's like a 2 star player with potential to be a 4 maybe 5 depending on his 4 year weightroom training. Redshirt him and this investment will have other players benefiting off of him too.

Yes. He shows a decent push on the DL, and imagine what a 6'6" (and still growing??) NT could do to disrupt passing lanes....

Watching him against DeSales on the telly.

He's going both ways...moves well...looks a little better at RT...but he can plug the middle on defense.

Nice get.
