Nick Harris: Worthless or Wattenburg Insurance?

I agree that if younger guys pass him up, he's a bust, but I don't agree that he would have passed up Charles and Tanigawa if he wasn't a bustRoadDawg55 said:
Those guys aren't very good. Crane does have time, but if Crane gets passed by Sosobee and/or Turner, he's a bust.bananasnblondes said:It's reassuring that we're finally getting to the point where our OL can actually sit for 3 years before they're expected to play.
The quick reaction is to think about a guy like Crane and say he's a bust because we haven't seen much of him yet. In reality, he's been playing behind upper-classmen (Criste, Tanigawa, Charles, Tafunga), which is supposed to happen.
Ideally, you want your OL careers to go like this:
Freshman - RS
RS Frosh - ride bench, special teams, play when up by 40
RS Soph - backup for starters, start if there are injuries
RS Jr - start
RS Sr - Start
The only position where we're not there is Right tackle, which speaks to Sark's absolute incompetence in bringing in Tackle prospects. Ironically, it's also the position that looks most promising down the road (McGary, Adams) -

Any decent player would've passed up anyone on our line last year.
The fact that some of our players massively improved under Pete last year gives me hope, but the fact that he's basically never been mentioned after he got here gives me reality. -
Since you obviously do watch a lot of football, please give examples of RS-frosh linemen starting over uninjured seniors with 3 years of starting experience.Dennis_DeYoung said:

There is a large difference between passing the starters and not playing a single snap.bananasnblondes said:

Harris is either a high one or a low two, but I'm still going with a one, because honestly it would be a pretty big surprise if he were ever an All Pac-12 player and my ratings are all relative to that.
