Offensive line Spring Game |
Sparks UMass bio.
During the Spring game the starting OL was:
- LT Tyrell Smith RSFR 6-5 295 12 career starts
- LG Elijah Wilkinson FR 6-4 330 0 career starts
- C Matt Sparks SO 6-4 290 14 career starts
- RG Josh Burns JR 6-5 285 0 career starts
- RT Tyshon Henderson JR 6-7 339 1 career start
Your LT, playing the quarterback's blind side is generally usually assigned to the OL's best player. Teams generally run right most of the time, so the RT is the best run blocker.
I think everyone expects Liam Porter 6-6 293 JR transfer from Dean College to make a strong bid to start. The same argument can be made for Ryan Johnson JR 6-5 320 transfer from Garden City Kansas.
Johnson played mostly guard at Garden City. I believe Porter was an OT at BC before being moved to TE. If he plays that position at UMass, Smith or Henderson could be moved to OG.
