Coach left for Washington and they had some roster turnover but their stud freshman quarterback stayed and they made a very good hire.
They'll be good.

In his interview, Neal also mentioned swapping sides with Tyler Miller. I wonder how that affects the starting rotation. Perhaps they want to get Jalen Travis on the field opposite Miller? Neal could potentially replace Brendan Black who played well last season, but still has a lot to learn. I think it has also been suggested here or perhaps in a podcast somewhere (can't remember for sure) that Dylan Barrett could potentially overtake Bonifas? Let me know if I'm way off:
LT ~ Tyler Miller 6'9" 335
LG ~ Jarrod Hufford 6'5" 325
C ~ Dylan Barrett 6'5" 320
RG ~ James Neal 6'6" 330
RT ~ Jalen Travis 6'9" 315
I know absolutely nothing, other than i would think it would be VERY hard to have an OL and not have Black on it somewhere. IMO he was the best one in the entire position group last year. Kid is downright mean and plays with an attitude
Clanton said Neal was working both guard and tackle, and what I head Neal say was that he’d played both sides of the ball.
That’s about positional flexibility, not flipping positions.
Considering what Clanton said, I think they’re going to be showcasing Neal as much as possible. Combine that with what he said about Deylin Hasert, and I’m starting to wonder if they might start rotating OL the way kinda the way they do defensive players.
Especially with Jalen Travis coming this summer. Wish he were here now, for S&C. Three tackles, three guards, and two centers?
And yeah, the way he talked about Barrett (who has also worked at OG) sounded really…positive.
Edit: BTW, just realized that the Neal interview for cyclones.com and CF are different. The Ezeogu one appears to be mostly the same.

I wonder if his Manson is named Charlie? Or possibly Marilyn?Not ISU related,...
Look: Mike Gundy's Oklahoma Manson Listed for Sale for $8 Million
It’s the offseason, so it’s time for college football fan bases all over the country to overreact to anything they see that might signal bad news. And in Stillwater, alarm bells went off on social media on Saturday when it was noted that Mike Gundy’s Oklahoma mansion is listed for sale for $8...www.heartlandcollegesports.com
For sh$ts and giggles, let’s start these 5 guys in our first conference game at Hilton next winter.
Go Cyclones
Based on where they are in their careers and stats, that's probably pretty fair. I'm not sure if Sanders is really #1, but we'll find out a lot this year. Man, it feels like Cam Rising is on the Perry Ellis plan.
Cam Rising? How about Allen Bowman. I feel like he was playing as a backup to Kliff Kingsbury.
Covid and 2 medical waivers. I've gotta assume he's older than Brandon Weeden was in 2011.
I have all kinds of questions. Firstly, Bowman is still playing college FB?!?! Bohannen at BYU? Also, isnt KJ Jefferson the QB that was at Arkansas?
I've seen his name for so many years it doesn't even register anymore.
How refreshing to see a Big 12 preseason list and not have the Oklahoma QB listed as number one and the UT player top four. It was always like they just used a template. SEC can have them.
Looks like the starting lineup for our BB team! Amazing how tall these linemen are now. I'm OK with it as long as they can move their feet and not let DE's around them.
Welcome to the feudal economy of college football! I agree with you.
I can't wait until friendlyspartan comes on to tell us all how things are just fine and actually better than before.
