I would be intrigued to see Sherman at LG next to Hambright at LT. Two big and talented dudes anchoring the left side with Lynott at Center. Then you'd have Kutsch, Pursell, Roddick and Ray battling out for RG and the other backup, with Fillip at RT. On paper, that's a pretty studly OL.
290 still seems light.
Especially for someone that tall.
Would have been really really really nice to have him here for the Spring but hopefully he is pushing for freshman Pac-12 player of the year at seasons end.
Yeah, Kap/Tucker obviously wants their oline at 300-310lbs (as they have stated), but he is feasibly 20-25 pounds bigger then last year. Is he big enough now to accomplish what they are wanting to do on the oline and not be a negative due to size? I think the only thing holding Fillip back has been his weight, IMO.
Not sure he is definitively a part of any "best five" just yet. I think that is a year away.
For his frame yes but it would at least allow him to compete.
I'd rather he play a little light with quality weight while he continues to develop and is over 300 next year.
He was much too light last year but I think at 290 he could contribute.
And I agree he isn't one of the best five but he certainly could help providing some depth and get enough time to help his development.
It may be less than the 300+ they want, but I wouldn’t let 10 lbs stop him from being the guy at RT if he can play.
Sherman is the better option in 2019 and it is not that close either IMO.
Sure, but is Sherman at RT and Kutsch at LG better than Fillip at RT and Sherman at LG?

Until they prove otherwise, I’m going trust the coaches to put the best five on the field. I’ve done that before and they proved they had no idea what the f__k they were doing. I think this time will be different.
I think the guard spots are far from settled. The coaches have some time to figure it out with both tackle spots and center figured out.
I'd bet you are right, but am open to pleasant surprises. If he doesn't get a lot of P/T I hope they preserve his R/S. I'd rather see him in the class with Ray/Roddick/Jynes as the only OT.

Have to imagine Landman will be on the Butkus watch list as well, with Viska also on the Biletnikoff and Heisman watch lists

nah. meh.
UCLA Washington and Colorado clearly have the beat unis in the conference.
Colorado, Washington, UCLA, and unfortunately USC are the untouchables. As much as I despise USC, they have good looking uniforms because they usually have unbelievable athletes in them, and when you are chiseled, you make the threads look good. Colorado's uniforms will always be epic, especially if we can keep adding the athletes we need.
Utah and Arizona have the most boring uni's by far

USC uniform is pretty damn iconic
Yeah I’m just not a fan of the yellow. But their helmet and symbol is legit.
Weird. Pretty sure it was one of the Drew Wilson Q&A articles. Not sure why it linked the transfer portal one. I don't have the link handy
I don’t think UWs unis are bad, but they are certainly not untouchable
