Would obviously be a major get for Beamer and fills a position of dire need.

Dante Reno has been tweeting things like "just learned our OL got A LOT bigger" and "can anyone guess my favorite chip?"
Hope it's true - definitely needed

GOT TO sign both Pringle & the large young man from Dillon.
yes, if we can land those two, along with the OL class we have for 2023, things will be looking up in the next few years. OL is a huge part of success. If you can protect the QB and run the ball, it makes it a lot easier to win games.

Not to mention, imagine knocking on the door of a top 5 RB and saying, "hey.. we have the #1 and #5 ranked tackles coming here. Imagine what you can do with those guy's blocking for the next 3-4 years."

Saw something a couple weeks ago that gave us much better odds with Thompson than Pringle. It would be gigantically huge if we landed both.

Who is the last elite OL we signed?

looks like now based on ON3's system, we are at:

Pringle: 82% vs next highest Clempson 5%
Thompson: 90% vs next highest Clempson 4%

Imagine this Oline in 2025 (all 4 star, with 4 of the 5 top 210 players in their class)

LT SO. Kam Pringle 6'7 330
LG JR. Tree Babalade 6'5 305
C RS JR. Trovon Baugh 6'4 310 (assuming he slides over to C due to no room elsewhere!!)
RG JR. Markee Anderson 6'3 300
RT SO. Josiah Thompson 6'6 280

in the mix - Jr Shivers, RS Jr Mains, RS Jr Brubaker.

If Beamer can pull this off, it would be MASSIVE. We all want the flashy QB or WR or RB, but, as trite as it sounds, it's true...it all starts up front. You must have a good OL, especially in the SEC of all conferences. Our OL has been a liability for quite some time now.

No doubt and totally agree. I just hope he is not just massive but also quick and mean. We have lacked a chip and edge in that position.

Weird, as far as I heard it looks like he may be committing to Florida. He's been liking and sharing their content over the past couple of days. Do not be surprised if he picks UF.

According to Kornblut he's made his decision and informed the school. Announcing this Sunday at 2:00.

His HS coach told Kornblut it's between us and Georgia. A bunch of coaches were at the school this week. Absent were UPC and Fl who were
on his short list.
