BATON ROUGE, Louisiana -- Southern is getting close to figuring out its starting offensive line and its rotation.It’s also preparing for the unexpected.
Offensive line coach Chennis Berry insists on players practicing on both sides of the line and sometimes at multiple positions to be prepared for unexpected, though not necessarily unlikely, developments.
“His motto is you stay ready so you don’t have to get ready,” tackle Eric Janeau said.
The importance of that approach was driven home to the Jaguars last season.
“It came in very handy,” guard Jamal Boulden said.
All-Southwestern Athletic Conference guard Anthony Mosley was declared academically ineligible before the season started. Two linemen were pulled from the team bus before it left for the season opener at Louisiana-Lafayette because they weren’t academically certified. Tackle Reginald Redding missed several games because of a concussion.
