In a system where the center is a pivotal part of the offense, such as the Bear Raid, there needs to be some semblance of depth. With the recent departure of Matt Cochran from the football program, that depth is lacking, with Addison Ooms and Michael Trani making up the two-deep. Cochran was the prospective starter, and neither of those two guys have had a D-1 snap. While nothing can be done about that in the current year as far as replacements go, the coaching staff has made strides in bringing in a potential replacement in the class of 2016.
