A healthy Moretti would go a long way in solidifying the line.
The work by Javier is very important.
Not trying to be insulting but last year he was a fat blob. He looked like a guy who was so heavy he couldn't effectively get out of his stance at the snap.
If he has as reported and as it looks dropped 40-60 lbs while building his strength he can get off the ball fast enough to control the center instead of getting moved.
If that is the case then the other 10 players on defense can all be more effective.

This is your thoughts, on a Friday night? Dude, you need help!
You talking Ex-lax help or professional help?
Didn't even appear to be wearing a braceWhat really matters here is Moretti.
I almost can't believe that he's squatting 525.
I guess we can stop the talk about him needing to get his lower body strength back.
I didn’t know it was in all caps. I thought that was just for the jersey.
My number 1 hope for Montez is he gets the ball out of his hands quicker. I am optimistic that Roper can help with that.

Hopefully to the same color Jersey he has.

And Moretti not needing/wearing a knee brace speaks volumes.
Are we really worried about vertical movements with that knee, no. It’s how it performs with lateral pressure.
I do more of a classic squat myself.
Me too, usually at the office after that first cup of coffee, wait, are we talking about the same thing?
Yes. The big concern was nerve damage resulting in drop foot.
Yep when nerve damage is involved, that's always tough. The bright side is he has youth on his side, always helps.
The talent upgrade at ol could be a lot of fun. Pancakes being back would make me happy
I think Center is the most important position on a college OL. I'm very excited about Pursell. I think he's going to be an all-conference player here eventually and a significant upgrade this year.
I feel pretty good about the interior OL.
I expect growing pains, but Huckins was just not a Pac-12 caliber center IMO. Very limited athleticism.

I'm looking forward to Pursell. Any time a RS freshman is clearly the favorite to win an OL position it bodes well for the talent coming up.
I don't know if I had posted this, but Pursell was actually the best C on the team last year but they tried to get by with redshirting him. It was pretty desperate later in the season once the injuries had hit, but by then it just seemed to be too much loss for too little gain if they pulled the RS.
I don’t know where you get this info, but I really, really hope you’re right. It could make for a special year (or four) if so.
I distinctly remember how excited Maximus was to get him. Finally a P5 OL recruit who had the size to play, without having to gain weight.... That's when I figured that Huckins would have feet like cement blocks.
