What happened? I thought he was the future at center. 
the centers yesterday were Lane, Davis and Ball

I suspect that it is multiple things:
Needs weight room development
Needs to better learn the offense (better to make line calls, protection calls and run the offense at the proper pace

Lane is slower than Coop in that latter capability (but was closer yesterday - noticeably slower when Davis was the center)

Did Hubbs mention Lang is probably the center of the future? Obviously he's nowhere near ready now.

If you define "future" as 2024 and forward, I'm not sure ANY of our OL of the future are currently on campus.

This is by far our biggest problem at the moment.  (OL development)

This is a major concern. It seems we have better OL depth than two years ago, but minus upside.

Lane is indeed a senior, but Lang is redshirting this season.

Ohhh... I forgot about him. I used to be really good at knowing the roster. I'm slipping in my old age. Thanks for the info!

I used to know the entire roster, and where everyone was from. Saturday I had the roster open on my phone during the game.
