I'm all for bringing in a guy or two if they are good and the staff sees a need. This is how I see the OL next year:
LT: SR McCree / RS-Soph Tafai / RS-Soph Jackett
LG: RS-Frosh Finau OR Portal
C: JR Hatchett / RS-Soph Henning
RG: SR Memmelar / RS-Frosh Watkins
RT: JR Azzopardi / RS-Soph Faasolo OR RS-Frosh Hylkema
At least to me, the unknowns are 1) how the staff feels about Finau developing and potentially being ready to start at LG. If they think he needs another year, bringing in a Junior or Senior in the portal to give him another year (while he runs at #2 LG as a RS-Frosh) would be ideal. 2) Whether or not they think Azzopardi will be able to take the next step after his first starting season in the B1G. 3) If a guy medically retires or transfers.
That is not good enough. They absolutely need 1 (preferably 2) portal studs at O line to be competitive. You're not going to have a shitty o line suddenly turn good just because they have a years experience.
Fuck you Vanilla!
Kalepo went from holding bags to getting bags from Mississippi. Below was benched his RS freshman year at tackle because he was awful. Guys do develop and get better. That said, I have no idea what the staff thinks about the kids on this roster. One? Two? Four? None? Only Carrol and Fish really know how many they’re looking at portalling in.

Does a world exist where Hatchet portals back from Oklahoma?
