Jagusah out for the season.

Insanely bad.
Tosh baker probably slides over to LT and that is an absolute recipe for constant pressure from the blind side

Get over yourself, I got it from an article On3 just posted.
We don’t have anyone prepared to take over LT. Jagasuh himself was just developing. If Nasty is right and Baker slides to LT, our QB is going to be under a ton of pressure. Personally, I hope like hell that Lambert proves to be the better option, but there are other talented guys like Absher that will likely get a strong look. Just a gut wrenching critical loss.
Agreed. He doesn’t have the classic length for LT as I recall, but he has impressed a lot of people with his play.
Lot of possibilities in play. This is brutal
Does Wagner go to left and play Tosh at right. Does Absher get in the mix at either spot. Not sure what the move is going to be

Can Pat Coogan play LT?
If Spindler and Coogan are locked in a tight battle, play the best 5 guys.

Don’t think the coaches know either. Perhaps the one position among our starters that we could not afford to lose the starter.
I'm confident Denbrock and company will be able to scheme around whoever plays the spot. Hate to see anyone get injured but Jagusah was far from a proven commodity. No disrespect to him but the sample size was small. Three solid weeks to figure out the best option. Interesting to see how it plays out.
My guess right now is Wagner at left tackle and Baker, Absher and Knapp battle at right
Agreed. I could see Schrauth getting a look see if the other options don't show promise.
We then have to scheme to help out Baker of he starts opposite. It's definitely a big problem especially with how good the Texas am front 7 is. We also lost our best blocking back in spring
Coogan is not even close to a tackle. That is not even a debate or option with Coogan at tackle
Because they were both average last year, at guard. He doesn't have the length or feet to play tackle. He's an interior OL
I can see a lot of Ford on 3rd and long. Again I'm confident they'll figure it out. The room is talented but inexperienced. Of course there will be growing pains. Every young player has them. Jagusah was going to have them too. Some players develop faster than others. Gotta be patient. I'd be way more concerned had this injury occurred three weeks from now.
Playing your best five always sounds good when stated by the coaches, but the reality is there are critical differences in what these positions require. Neither Coogan or Spindler have the agility or foot speed, etc… to play tackle. Tackles can play guard as needed, but guards rarely can play tackles at this level. At least, my opinion.
Figure it out, maybe. Good enough to compete compete for a Championship, much tougher now
I have had zero thoughts of this 2024 team winning 4 straight CFB Playoff games and winning a title.
Playoffs and one win is a successful season.
Of course. That said injuries are going to occur. Coaches don't have the luxury of dwelling on it like fans do. Next man up.
Obviously. Doesn't mean it's not going to effect us because the thinking is next man up
I'm not sure you can definitively say any team is capable of doing that or winning a conference championship game and three playoff games. Someone will but it will be a difficult road for them.
Never said it wouldn't. You do your best with what's available. It really is that simple. I don't think this is a season crushing injury by any stretch of the imagination. I just dont.
