Depth on OL?

[Tokyo Steve]

Here's my starting Lineup:
LT-Cronk
LG-Martin
Center-Knight
RG-Stepniak
RT-Baker

All of them started at least one game last season. So not horribly raw, though this group hasn't played together much.

As for back ups:

Tackles: Love, Stover, Knight, Jones (verbal)
Interior: Nworah, Littlejohn, Smith, Crider (verbal)

So 8 more guys as back ups. I would agree on somewhat low numbers. Really want 10 back ups, which we do get with walk ons.

I like those starters. We're really young but, counting walk-ons Trainor and Ramacca, who MTIOTF listed above, we should have 15 bodies.

OL who did not complete eligibility:

Nworah, Mackenzie OL 6-4 320
Love, DaVondre OL 6-7 315
Cronk, Coy OL 6-5 293
Stover, Grayson OL 6-6 300
Trainor, Jack OL 6-2 315
Ramacca, Nick OL 6-2 287
Knight, Brandon OL 6-5 297
Littlejohn, Hunter OL 6-3 300
Baker, Delroy OL 6-6 305
Stepaniak, Simon OL 6-4 305
Martin, Wes OL 6-3 310

Already in school:
Ryan Smith OL Cincinnati, OH 6'5" 280
Tyler Knight OL St. Petersburg, FL 6'4" 275

Committed:
Caleb Jones OL Indianapolis, IN 6'9" 320
Harry Crider OL Columbus, IN 6'4" 250

Lot of 300+ players on there. Seems like a couple of redshirts with promise are Nworah from Texas and Stover (Fla right?) Two big boys, good HS states, one year of seasoning. Like to also see Delroy and maybe Love get some time. Big beef, can they throw it around?

Still believe IU will get a good OL coach. Love to see Frye from BC get the nod, but sure there are other talents out there.
