Offensive linemen that play as true freshman seem to always get hurt and have chronic injuries afterward. Porter and Koehler come to mind. Brostek was another one that was hurt and albeit mismanaged.
If Adams is physically ready to take on the role then great. If not just redshirt him. Tsio anyways. 2040 will be special. -

Whoever was behind him sucks more.Dennis_DeYoung said:Oh no! We'll be missing a guy who sucks!!! What will we do?!?
Though, I think this burns Adams' redshirt. -
did Peterman throw his hat on the ground, fall on his back and cancel the rest of practice?GrundleStiltzkin said: -

At UW that is true. I'm not sure about other places. I can think of quite a few OL that played at true freshman that turned out fine. Most of those guys were 5 star recruits, but if Adams is in the two deeps he probably plays.Gladstone said:

I'd say it's the easiest for OGs to step in and play.
Winston Justice started about a decade ago for USC as a true frosh OT and did well enough.
OT Tyrell Crosby for Oregon got some PT and maybe even started a few games and did ok.
USC started 3 frosh OL last year but 2 of them were OGs.
My biggest concern is injury over performance when true frosh usually have to go against guys who are a few years older than them and thus have spent multiple years in a CFB weight training program to handle the rigors of starting / playing a lot of plays.RoadDawg55 said:

You usually will see the talent come out with running blocking pretty quickly, but yeah usually lots of pass pro breakdowns.Gladstone said:

Good point, another reason why it's easier for true frosh OGs to play than OTs.BallSacked said:
