Tuscaloosa, AL • #4 Position Group • • 4. Defensive Line • Competing: Jaheim Oatis (So.), Justin Eboigbe (Sr.), Jamil Burroughs (Jr.), Jah-Marien Latham (Jr.), Tim Smith (Sr.), James Smith (Fr.), Tim Keenan (So.), Anquin Barnes (So.), Monkell Goodwine (So.), Isaiah Hastings (RS Fr.), Edric Hill (Fr.), Hunter Osborne (Fr.), Damon Payne (So.), Khurtiss Perry (RS Fr.), Jordan Renaud (Fr.), Chase Quigley (Jr.) Departed: D.J. Dale, Byron Young Why We’re Optimistic: Depth galore, and the return of Justin Eboigbe takes a lot of uncertainty off the table. Why We’re Pessimistic: Wildly inconsistent and overall, disappointing in 2022. Byron Young’s departure also hurts Prediction: Eboigbe, Oatis and – at least at the beginning – Tim Smith will probably be the starters, with Burroughs, Latham, Payne and maybe James Smith as the second group.
