Lex

Post by longhorn_22 » Tue Nov 29, 2005 8:40 pm

I remember a while back some friz fan asked if Lulay was still here because it seemed like he had been here so long. But my question is when the hell does Lex graduate? It seems like he has been there FOREVER. I thought he was Senior this year, but I was wrong. He'll probably dominate like no other next year. I would've posted this on efriz, but I am protesting that site.

I don't blame you, what a bunch of assholes. I don't post over there any more, for the same reason. I still peruse the site occasionally for info, especially during recruiting season, and when I need a good laugh it is always fun to see their own fans tearing into each other.

Lex won't have as good of a year next year. He will have no proven back-up now that Waller is gone, and 3 of the 5 starting offensive linemen are gone - and those guys were terrible. He will again have no QB to take pressure off him, so teams will continue to stack 8 in the box. As you saw when good defensive teams played against them, Lex doesn't do much when teams stack the box.

What little you guys know about the Griz. I guarantee Lex will have a better year next year, and guarantee the Oline will be better.

Brady Green is a fairly proven if you ask me. TBF is going to be good, though not proven. But there it the possibility of a speed demon soph transfer in the works, that I will keep to myself for now.

Blind faith, my man, nothing but blind faith. I see nothing that would lead me to believe the griz offensive line will be better next year. If the guys they had backing up the starters were any good, they would have been starting this year because the guys starting sucked by the end of the year. Lex is very good, but not so good that he can run wild behind a line that can't open holes.

Brady Green was a very good 3rd stringer, but I don't know that he will be that great of a back-up to Lex because of his size. The griz have a few freshmen who may pan out, but as I said, none of them is proven yet. Regardless of who fills the spot, I don't think it is a stretch to say that he will be a drop-off from Waller, who could have started for half the teams in the Big Sky. Transfers, who knows? Bobby hasn't had much luck with transfers so far.

Cats have a big-time transfer in the works, too, but I'll keep that to myself also.

We'll see Bozone. Anything could happen it is all speculation, but based on the rumblings I've been hearing Lex is going to have a better year.

How can you be hearing "rumblings" about how much better Lex is going to do only 5 days after the previous season ended?!?!

The Griz have big time transfers coming in at O-Line & RB also, but like you I am keeping them to myself.

The answer to the original question is that Lex is a Senior next year. I believe he did not red-shirt so this was only his third year.

How? They come in the form of changes to the O. And also in how good some of of our young Oline guys are. Don't need you to believe it, but that is what I base my speculation that Lex will have a great year.

Plus the fact that his is just plain good. And there is no way our O-line will be as bad as they were at the end of this year. That will be remedied one way or another.
