Nose tackle
Markell Clark has yet to make an appearance, same with Earle.Scott is banged up. I’m more concerned about this position than anywhere else on the roster.

Re: Nose tackle
Markell has given up football. I talked to him in the stands Saturday, too many shoulder surgeries. You could tell he was extremely invested and wanted to be on the field. I believe he's helping the coaching staff now.

Re: Nose tackle
Wish him the best getting his degree and finding his calling. That must have been a really tough decision. Glad he put his health first.

Re: Nose tackle
Did not know that , he was penciled in as the starter last spring. We need Earle healthy , as well as Scott.

Re: Nose tackle
Definitely need Scott back. Not sure health is the issue with Earle; he may just be down the depth chart.

Re: Nose tackle
I’m glad this position got brought up. How about two former walk on guys getting it done in the middle!!!! Scott and Blackstock, what a great job these guys did against a huge ACC O line. That’s the kind of players we have and need on our team. Guys who might not have the “mesurables”, but they sure have the heart and the fight.

Re: Nose tackle
Blackstock played fantastic on Saturday, considering everything. He has a motor and doesn't quit.
Give 'em hell!

Re: Nose tackle
I agree Blackstock and Spurlin played hard and both did a great job! Hope EJ is back to full speed. He is a beast.
