I think Freeman/JL/Homan will be starters. Terry/Spitler/Moeller or Rolle in the 2 deep.

Well, Spitler will probably be on the other side of the ball, and don't forget Gibson, he needs to see the field in other roles besides LEO.

I have been told by Austin, that even though he is seeing some snaps at fullback, his main priority is to back up #33. Actually a few months ago when it was first brought up on here, he told me that I was crazy. I guess BP knows some things before the players do!!

No he won't but it sounds like Terry will.

From what I've been told...as of today Andrew is alternating between the second and third string with Rolle getting most of the snaps with the second team. Coaches definitely like his ability though and he has had a good spring.

WLB IMO.

Sorry, I meant where is Sweat projected at?

[buck2006]

So does that mean Homan will be the starter at WLB? And Freeman at SLB? No way Sweat is a head of those two. Rolle was in the 2 deep when Homan got hurt last year but with Sweats size I could see that, but I could see a red shirt also.

Sweat was out there today on special teams.

They must really think highly of him and 'Bino to burn their redshirts for just mostly special teams play. Reminds me of Hines last year and we're seeing just how special he is this year.

Does Sweat compare to say like Homan? He looks so much like Ross.....

It looked like he was taking care of Spitler's duties.

The speed and atheletic ability of the next gruop of LBers is off the charts and will be a big help next year. Including Dorian Bell from Penn.

Andy Sweat's mom called me today & we have not talked in a few years & she was so thrilled to hear from me.
I used to groom their dog "Fancy" & Andy was a little boy then,about 8 or so.
She had no idea I was a Buckeye! We talked for about an hour.
We are hooking up this week before the game. She lives about 15 minutes from me.

[ysubuck]

Wait a minute...

ONE OF OUR LINEBACKERS HAD A DOG NAMED "FANCY?!?!?!?!??!?!?"

What the hell is that all about??


I kid, I kid!!
