It was a good idea - maybe resurrect it in a month or so....

With Rehring backing up at either tackle spot, Person, Mitchum, and Skinner being in the two-deep on the inside. Datish, Downing, and the rest will have a tough time staying in the two-deep.

Funny how everyone thinks Steve is gonna be a life long back up. Remember last year when no one could beleive he got an offer, and then ended up being the only true frosh on the oline to see time (and in no way am I taking anything away from those guys). Can't wait till the season.

You're overlooking how incredible Boone should be and cordle already is... it isn't as much of a knock on Rehring in LJB's prediction...

RB Eric Haw
Finally settled after his late spring high, Eric asserted himself in Texas game after starter Antonio Pittman went down with a sprained ankle in the first quarter. Since the Texas game, he has gained 925 yards averaging 4.9 yards per carry. Strangely, he caught another 18 passes out of the backfield. Now healthy, Pittman has gotten only 34 carries since. Maurice Wells and Anderson Russell redshirted.

Wow, Tress has some balls. Pittman goes down with a sprained ankle and he doesn't pull the redshirt off Wells or Russell. Haw was a busy boy rushing for 188.8 rushes without a backup. Perhaps White moved to TB for this year or one of the walkons was serviceable. Still, assuming 30 carries per game puts Pittman's return somewhere around game 8. We must be getting good production from our WR's. I bet Ginn gets a few hand offs and there are some designated QB runs for Smith.
I guess if I mock I have to put something out there....
New York fans realize that Mike Nugent was a steal in the second round as he is on pace to be a pro bowl kicker in his first year in the league. However, the only thing the fans miss in Columbus is a good phonetic cheer for his replacement, Josh Houston. Houston has been perfect under 40 yards for the season and 6/7 over 40 including one from 55 and the game winning 47 yarder at Penn State.

Even more interesting is how some seem to have written off Mitchum...

For the record, I haven't written off either Rehring or Mitchum - both could easily be starters in 2005 and beyond. I was making a "shoot from the hip" prediction in a "fun" thread before the beginning of training camp. Barring injury, Steve and Kyle will certainly be in the two-deep this season.
