Ian Fullacrap, you are now zero for your life in "reporting anything accurate.

He talks so much BS it is unreal he is still employed. Literally nothing he has broken has come true.

Re: And so it begins.... Max Unger out

now that the panic has set in.

can we all see we need to draft a replacement to start grooming now. One that has proven themselves as a guard and is showing solid upside at center.

Who in particular is on your radar @ center? Are you not sold on Jack Allen?

Frank Ragnow C/OG,Arkansas 6052 319 5.14 #72 Sr

Pro Football Focus selected him as the best offensive lineman in the country.

three-year starter

A solid first-year starter at right guard in 2015 as a sophomore in which he allowed 2 sacks over his 13 starts, Ragnow made the move to center for his junior season in 2016 and has impressed with his play, out with a bad outing against Alabama under tough personal circumstances. Larger than many at the center position at 6ft 5, 312 lbs, he offers both length and strength to hold up against physical interior defensive linemen. The progress in year two as a starter has been very positive, playing with better leverage and setting a more effective base to hold his position. The aggressive drive blocking always looked a strength of his game and that continues to stand out. It’s not been the best year for Arkansas, and the O-line that is normal a staple of Brett Bielema football hasn’t been the same this season, but Ragnow is an NFL starter in waiting, and may well chose not to stick around on an average team when he looks ready now.

Re: And so it begins.... Max Unger out

Well, WDSU (New Orleans) was reporting October return last night...

Foot injuries are tricky; then, Unger would need conditioning as well...

They, like several others, were just regurgitating what Fullacrap threw against the wall.
