What a difference it makes having an experienced guy helping with the protections. I was thrilled when they announced Lem would start at C tonight.

Isn't lem the one with the photographic memory, the players call lempedia or something?

I would agree; for a Ruskell pick, Unger is the indisputable starter. But Lemuel provides the least gap possible and his experience is invaluable. He's also terrific swing depth. He's the exact kind of guy that exemplifies the Carroll era - resilience via good depth.
Agreed.MysterMatt":nb735e0w said:I'm not a huge Unger fan, but whereas I give Lemierre the nod from a physical standpoint, you have to appreciate Max's technical and mental aptitude. I want both guys on the team as long as possible, but a healthy Max Unger is probably the better center.
Oh, Lem clearly has the physical edge. The block he made during Moeakis near TD demonstrated that. If he could recognize blitzes and target anywhere near as well as Unger, we'd have a beastly line. Hopefully he keeps grinding and gets there.MysterMatt":10jjzuu8 said:I'm not a huge Unger fan, but whereas I give Lemierre the nod from a physical standpoint, you have to appreciate Max's technical and mental aptitude.
