Frank Middleton

That guy is huge and I had the pleasure of meeting him a few years ago when he played for the Bucs. He's a really nice guy, while all of the other players ran inside to avoid the thunderstorm, him and Trent Dilfer stayed outside and signed autographs and talked to fans. That's the sort of thing that reveals someone's true character.

Are we looking at him at guard or center?

 

[spydertl79]

I have no idea, I just read that we signed him. Has he ever played center?

 

[Joneal7]

probobally a RG..so Hadnot can be center

I love the acquisition of a guard who's played guard and whose specialty is guard and who can, in a pinch, play guard.

Our camp is populated with too many cases of "Well, he's suited for this, but he has the tools to do this, and we might try him at this."

 

[miamirw]

Wow. I had no idea we signed him. I know he's a pretty good guard when his weight is down.

So our full Oline will look like this:

LT - Carey
LG - James
C - Hadnot
RG - Middleton
RT - McDougal

I like it!

Then our second string Oline looks like this:

LT - McIntosh
LG - Cook
C - Ephraim
RG - McKinney
RT - St. Clair

Not bad!

What about picking up Jason Ball whom Houck coached into a pretty good center as insurance?

Not bad at all. People need to stop saying we have no talent or depth on our o-line.

Because it's just not true anymore.

He is a high character guy.Criminal justice Major.

Very true, he knows how to play the position, and if he can do some of the things I remember he used to be able to do, there will be some large holes to run through on the right side. This was a great pickup for Miami.

Very quietly, little by little, most of the problems of this team are starting to almost disappear (at least on paper). Very nice off season.

not to sound rude or anything but shouldn't this thread be merged with the one about Middleton signing that was posted about 2 hrs ago?

no, this is talking about him but its different. 3800+ posts= I know when to start a new thread or not.

I guess it's good then that I prefaced my post then by saying "not trying to be rude"......Otherwise you might have gone and thrown the fact that you have 3800+ posts up at me.

so as to not offend you further I'll delete my "not trying to be rude post". sorry about that.

Agreed! Saban like us isnt happy with Seth's play thus far. Who can blame him. Now with this signing we have more room to move people around. All around great move!
