↓ CENTER ↓

  1. Will Towery (RS-JR): Towery was having a good spring en route to showing that he could indeed be an adequate successor to the position dominated by stud center Sean Allen, who graduated. But an injury cut short Towery’s spring camp. From what he was able to show, it sounds as if he has a pretty good handle on the position, but expecting him to be another Allen is not a fair comparison as Allen was a rare talent. Hopefully, Towery will heal up by fall because he is desperately needed to help fill the biggest gap in an otherwise solid offensive line.
  2. Daulton Faulds (RS-SO): Like Towery, Faulds missed most of the spring with an injury sustained in camp. Like Towery, Faulds was showing some very good things when competing. And like Towery, Faulds now will have to heal up and hopefully pick up where he left off to give the Pirates a viable backup.

Position Analysis – On a talented offensive line, the one big question mark is the center position. Spring camp didn’t make anyone feel any better as the two candidates to replace All-Conference USA center Sean Allen both failed to finish camp, succumbing to injuries midway through. This is a position the Pirates must shore up or they will be in some serious trouble with a new QB under center. Towery has the size and talent as a converted tight end, but now that health is an issue, the position at best is on shaky grounds.
