Our season really will hinge on OL performance, especially with a new QB. A 3-star with lots of experience in conference is a pretty good get to fill an immediate need.
This is indeed great news and we've all agreed that our Oline will determine a great deal of our success, as it does for most any team. But especially given our likelihood of having a great defense, a great group of RB and WR's and a new QB. The Big Nasties will pave the way for the run game and pass game and if so, we can keep up with any other talented team we play. Now I'm very curious to hear how the fall camp goes. We will know after the first game or two whether we are going to Notre Dame to get a paycheck, or to show them how the Golden Bears are not only better than them academically, but on the gridiron.
He’s played both guard and tackle so could be a great flexible pick up for the line . If he has played tackle, that is where Cal is the thinnest, so right on the money. Plus anyone who can play tackle can play guard, but not everyone who can play guard can play tackle.
A couple of new, good players who can plug in and contribute is wonderful. I recall, though, some comment that the overall numbers in the OL room are unusually low. Given the wear and tear that always happens in the trenches, can anyone provide insight into how the current body count measures against normal? Thanks for keeping us up to date!

Shall I guess from the picture that he is one of the ironborn from house Greyjoy?
