I could see some rotational work next year but not starting. If he is a starter we are worse off than I thought.

Meh. Most people would have said that about Sutton or Barnett coming in too. But if he's ready to play I think he will play. If that happens I believe it's more of a testament to his talent than anything else. We're not going to plug him if he's not ready. If that's the case I'm sure we'll just start Blair.

Yea Blair couldn't get on the field when we literally had one of the worst lines in the country. I would not be surprised if Richmond jumps him.

Let's see how he does against Barnett and Maggitt first before we put him out there against Striker. All I am saying is that he needs a little time to adjust. Very athletic but expecting him to start day one is ridiculous.

I love how if I didn't know any context to this post that Striker could easily be a villain from Street Fighter or something

I had the misfortune of having to live in North Mississippi during the late 90's and had to put up with a lot of bashing. I shrugged it off as just jealousy and butthurt over our success and the whole Manning deal. After the late touchdown to run up the score on us, the stupid cocky Vandy - like attitude they had throughout the Richmond recruitment, and the bile they are spewing right now, Ole Miss has moved way up my hate list. They are solidly tied with Vandy for my third most hated SEC team just behind Bama and Florida. I wish them nothing but continued pain and obscurity.

Could not have said it better myself. I feel the same way and will enjoy their fall back to mediocrity. While rubbing it in a lot more than the past.

Call it Dooley hangover, but I'm not going to feel comfortable until the fax comes in.

I'm usually with you in these situations, but to me, the decommitment from OM was such a huge hurdle to jump over that I feel like it's smooth sailing from here on out.

I know, I know...

Famous last words

Pump the breaks just a little. He is still a high school tackle. He is athletic, but he will probably need a year or two to adjust. Blair should be our tackle for at least a year.

I said "if he's as good as advertised". All you need to do is look at all the underclassmen OT's declaring for the 2015 draft to see it may not be wise to RS Richmond. Not saying he's an automatic starter but unless Blair has developed we may not have a better option.
