What are the implications of Stanton Ramil's transfer to Auburn?
It's the Lockdown Podcast Network, your team every day.
The Auburn Tigers get an experienced, powerful offensive tackle. Let's go!
You are Locked On Auburn, your daily podcast on the Auburn Tigers. Part of the Locked On Podcast Network, your team every day.
Yes, welcome on in to Locked On Auburn, your daily Auburn Tigers podcast. I'm your host, Zach Blackerby. And thank you so much for making Locked On Auburn your first listen every single day. A very energetic Matt Sheehan. That's right.
What should Auburn fans expect from Ramil's performance?
The host of Locked on Spartans. I went on Locked on Spartans a few days ago because you guys get Caleb Wheatland. You're coming on Locked on Auburn because Stanton Ramil, the left tackle for the Spartans for all of 2024 for the first part of 2025. He was looking to suffer an injury. We'll get more on that in a second. But he is committed. He's now an Auburn Tiger, Matt Sheehan. Your initial thoughts from the Auburn perspective should be what? Should we be excited about Stanton Rimmel?
Going to answer your question with a question, Zach. One of my favorite tricks that I like to do here. What's your left tackle situation looking like right now? Is he coming in as a bonafide starter, you think, on day one? Will there be some competition?
If there was no, if we added no one else, which we will have to, we don't have enough people in the room, he would be the starter.
Okay.
I don't hate it. I would categorize it perhaps as a gamble, and I think that's a fair assessment here. First and foremost, I wish nothing but the best for the kid, like we talked about before recording. We had him on Lockdown Spartans, nice kid, good leader.
How does Ramil's injury history affect his potential as a starter?
Friend of the program.
Friend of the program, all this and that, and definitely no sour grapes with his departure, but I think it's a gamble. Let's talk about the upside here. How can this work? He came in as a four-star. He missed his entire true freshman season because ACL injury. Then he gets thrust into the starting role, redshirt freshman season. About three or four games is where he blossomed into a starter. Now, it wasn't an outstanding season for him, but your first college action in Big Ten play, you're going against the likes of Ohio State, Oregon. You can understand how that might not go so well right off the rip here. But, hey, you know what? Big body comes in with a big pedigree. Like, maybe down the line it can work.
You don't panic about a tackle because it didn't work out in his first year starting. Now, here's where maybe the low end of the gamble comes. Let's say that you do roll snake eyes and, uh-oh, this didn't work out because, like I said, missed that freshman season with an injury. He did miss pretty much every game after the first month of the season due to another leg injury. And I'm sorry, I don't know if it was the same leg or not. It wasn't to the extent of an ACL tear, but it was definitely one.
Matt, it looks like he came back in Week 9 and played 18 snaps. Did they just try to give it the old college try to see and it didn't pan out? What did that mean?
That's precisely what it was. And those 18 snaps against Michigan, too. So this kid's a gamer. He wanted to come in and he wanted to make a difference in that big rivalry game. Just never materialized here. So, yes, somewhere inside that body is a four-star pedigree, a guy with a lot of experience. Can it materialize? Sure.
What is Auburn's offensive line situation heading into the season?
But injury issues and also in that first month of last season against Boston College, he let up, I think it was five or six pressures, a sack, and that's not necessarily a demon front four over there for Boston College. So I'm hoping for the best for him. I hope it can work. It still absolutely can work. I think it's a little bit of a roll of the dice here, though, for Auburn.
Yeah, they're going to have to get a handful of guys like this. I don't see this staff really pursuing the top offensive tackles in the portal. I think Ramil was ranked 11th on On3's portal rankings for tackles, which is kind of what I expected. I think they're going to get a bunch of guys 10 to 20 ish. And like, let's just see what happens.
