Welcome back to another episode of Locked on Seminoles! Drake and Dave continue the way-too-early position previews, finishing the offensive side of the ball with the big guys up front along the offensive line.
Since inheriting one of the worst offensive lines in all of FBS upon his arrival to Florida State, Alex Atkins has coached and recruited the position into a state of serviceability, if not better. Indeed, the offensive line has improved each year since Atkins’ arrival alongside Mike Norvell, largely anchored by the play of transfers such as Dillan Gibbons, D’Mitri Emmanuel, and Jazston Turnerine in 2022, which saw FSU’s run blocking improve to top-50 after being 120th-best the year prior. The Seminoles will once again lean on transfers along the offensive line in 2023, after bringing in yet another top crop of transfers including UTEP stat tackle Jeremiah Byers, Colorado guard Casey Roddick, and Auburn guard Keiondre Jones. Though injuries could have derailed FSU’s offensive line in 2022, quality, functional depth shined through, and the depth should be even greater in 2023.
With that in mind, Drake and Dave discuss expectations and performance of the offensive line in 2022, wants and needs for the line play in 2023, and underclassmen breakout candidates who could force themselves into a starting spot by season’s end.
