He's visiting tomorrow, I believe. Coaches will be present.
Except for Hev right?*** Say he got a stomach virus or something.Quote:

Getting him would be huge. RT is a scary spot on our team right now because we would likely have to start a RS freshman. We haven't really utilized the grad transfer market too much but if we start using it some we can fill some holes like this.
Can he play though? Not Debbie downer, but is he ready to play in the SEC?
I know we need bodies but a scouting report from someone in the know would be nice
I think he started at Texas.Quote:

Look, I really want him as well, but I have wondered exactly how good he is.
At least he's played and should be competent at least. That's a step up
I think he lost his starting position, but unless Texas had just a massive deficiency at OT, the fact that he ever started means he'll likely be an upgrade for us.Quote:

Exactly. Our OL isn't exactly stacked. I'm pretty confident after reading about Hodges he can definitely help us.
Pretty much. Looked it up and Texas was 16th in total offense last year in FBS.Quote:

This. I can't imagine he's worse than an empty spot.Quote:
