Auburn offered OL Wilson Bell

  • Another update on Johnson. Ole Miss official set.

  • In those pictures, he looks to be thin-boned and thin-framed for an OL. Would not be surprised to see him have injury issues as his career progresses (though hopefully not). I know he is coming on, but I won't be sad if we miss.

  • According to an Orlando Sentinel article, Golson and Bell became close at the Alabama-Mississippi All Star game. Golson supposedly notified coach Trickett of how well Bell did against Mississippi players like Reuben Foster. Trickett then looked at video, liked what he saw and how good Golson and Bell played together. Days later FSU offered Bell.

    I don’t know how much these two bonded but I hope it’s not strong enough for both to go to Auburn and that they just stay at FSU. Auburn are stacked with linemen the past couple years!

    no

    You disagree, crozea?

    I know we are hurting for OL right now, but look at his forearms, elbow and wrist. They are quite small compared to your average OL. You can put on tons of muscle on a frame, but you can't make your bone structure bigger. Those wrists are going to have to hold up against 260-300 lb monsters crashing into them thousands of times over the college career. If the wrists are thin, my guess is the ankles are thin, too.

    That's why guys like Warrick Dunn played in the league for years--big joints.

  • Auburn is definitely starting to get on my nerves. Still feel good about Golston, and hoping FSU can reel Wilson in as well.

    1/2 of those ol's are not in school anymore. Auburn had a staggering amount of attrition.

    Hell has frozen over because cuth and I largely agree. IMO if Wilson sees a lot of pt ever at FSU it will probably be because our ol is 2011 bad.

    I find him unimpressive.

  • Auburn's Rivals site just did an update with him and he said FSU was on top
