Francis almost beat him out as a true FR. I'd be surprised if he didn't this spring. He's got so much more potential and Boas was too often a liability last year.
So where are we at for OL without him?
Francis will probably start at center. Stockwell at LT. Anderson at LG. Miller at RG. Maybe Camy at RT or Meehan. Steiner and Bell for depth?
This staff is crushing recruiting this year. Carter has that first step and twitch that we need and also appears to have decent size for a corner. Palmborg looks like a solid player that could develop nicely.
These two games count for nothing. Get the sweep over with and keep everyone healthy. Duluth showed us how we need to play against good teams. Playing Niagra is a glorified scrimmage.
It could be the old case of someone being smooth. That doesn't translate to film all that well. I just don't see that explosive step like Momoh or Bennett.
You can't use two different measures and compare them like that. You'll either have to find what % of ncaa hockey players actually make it in the NHL or what % of MLB debuts are ncaa guys. Very different measures.
