Did you see our O-line this year? There is PT available.
At one point we were down to one non-redshirting lineman left on the bench this year due to all of the injuries. Depth is a good thing

Wendell, Welcome to Cyclone Nation-We look forward to seeing you do your thing in the Cardinal & Gold.
Hopefully he eats the entire fridge afterwards. He looks exactly like an OL should look, massive - someone that it would take a truck to push around.
Obviously I wasn't the only annoyed with seeing size being sacrificed for better mobility on the line, from the looks of these incoming OL recruits (320, 320, 350), being massive on the line is making a comeback.
Glad were getting back to road grading offensive linemen. Big, powerful, down hill run blockers.
To me this screams pistol offense.

I did see our O-line this year, we were playing a ton of talented young players with different line-ups each game due to injuries. How is this guy going to prevent people from getting hurt next year?
Depth is certainly a good thing, but you generally don't bring in a JUCO to be third-string, just because the top two guys were hurt this year.
Looks like the KO body type I said we've been needing. Could be a great pickup for us! Hope he can run block!
Here is a better video. Highlights from JUCO

pretty good looking for a high school tape for an OL, decent pad level at point of attack which isn't easy for a guy his size. Finishes his blocks and looks like he as an attitude. I like it. Welcome aboard. Glad to have you a Cyclone.
First OL highlight vid were it was easy to pick out the OL to watch, dude is huge.

Agree. He moves just fine. He will help our run game, and may allow Gannon to play G or T.
I welcome the addition of Wendell and hope he's ready to step up and play a role in bigtime football - he looks big enough. Looks to have a mean streak and plays with attitude.
I think this is, more or less, evidence that we're not going to throw our real young guys on the OL into the deep end of the pool too early. Basically it helps answer the endless stream of questions about "what about Campos?", "will we see Campos?", "will Campos start?" and so on.
Looking forward to seeing this OL come together and mature.
