Is there anything new on T.J.'s status? Can he run yet? Is he lifting? Or is he still healing? Will he be able to contribute this year and if so in what capacity? What would you say the chances of him redshirting are?

Stripling's rehab was ahead of schedule, really, since he able to run and lift in the spring without trouble. Given that, there is no reason to think he won't be full-go in August (assuming there hasn't been a setback behind the scenes). At the same time, he didn't practice this spring, so he'll be rusty. As for a redshirt, he does have one to give, so it's not impossible.

We forget about them but i think TJ and Dexter Morant I think are guys that are being overlooked on defense this year. I think both could be good enough to help at OLB

Stripling is a beast. Richt doesn't play a lot of true freshman but right out of camp Richt said that he would be playing. I thought he would be a better fit to replace Houston than Drew. Drew looks dominant with his hand in the dirt. Not sure if he can cover a TE or not, but I'll leave that up to the coaches.

I think Strip will be a GREAT 3-4 OLB, I would like to see Morant bulk up enough to move to DE.

You are right red and black, Stripling and Morant can give us some depth, both will be fine. Morant might be a little further along at this point.

I also would like to see Morant around 270# or more to give some depth at DE, especially in some nickel type packages where he could get after the QB. I think TJ is going to be a great pass rush threat in the future, but not sure if he is going to be all the way back this year and does need to add some weight. I am excited about those second team (and freshmen) LB's all the way across the board!
