Preview – Offensive Line – Center

Football

In 2008 Ben Jones became one of those rare players that leave the state of Alabama when he signed with the Dawgs and by the fourth game was the teams starting center. The 6-3, 300 pound junior was named to the All-SEC freshman team that year. Coach Stacy Searels loves his work ethic and the fact that he plays with a nasty attitude.

Redshirt freshman Chris Burnette (6-2, 300) is another Dean’s List member that has quickly worked his way onto the two deep depth chart.

A number of other Dawgs have cross trained at center and could be called upon if an emergency arose, among those; Chris Davis, Tanner Strickland and Ben Harden.

Depth Chart:

Ben Jones, Junior, 6-3, 300, 23 starts

Chris Burnette, RS-Freshman, 6-2, 300
