Neto Left Guard?

I would assume he will stay at left guard. That sets it up as 3 year starter (LT), 1st year starter, Old man river (C), 2 year starter, and new starter (RT). Keeping new starters surrounded by experience, avoiding having an entire side of the line being inexperienced. 

 

damn I read that wrong.. forget this

Sydir really needs to get going if he is going to stick around and contribute. If January completely surpasses him this Spring, he may be out the door right?

or that is a come to Jesus moment for Sydir and it motivates him to dedicate himself to reaching ceiling. I am not even sure Sydir knows what any of this means for him yet.

So people think we will show Sydir the door? Crazy talk. Plenty of time and remember same talk about Sweat years ago. Let it play out. Could he portal ? Sure as can anybody, but I haven't seen anywhere where that is a possibility yet. Hope he keeps working and let it play out. And of course be portal looking for a DT if 1 becomes available.

I see it the same way.  It's like he's eating his way off the depth chart.

Patience he is only a redshirt freshman, DT development takes time

TROLLS  believe we show Sydir the door before he finishes his freshman year.

PEOPLE?  not so much

Agreed. I would not give up on Sydir any time soon. He can definitely end up being a great player. Also true that in portal/NIL era, we will just find a replacement if he continues to not meet expectation.

Physical and technical development takes time.  Attitude development does not, and that's what's needed.
