What I'm wondering is how interchangeable the guard positions are.
Sometimes you have two excellent players, but only one can play the position. For example, a good boundary corner might not have the speed to play field corner, so it's possible a team could have two BCs it feels comfortable with, but not really have a good FC anywhere on the roster.
I don't know enough about the O-line, but my question - whether Kanuch could switch guard positions - is my way of trying to figure out how the coaches feel about the current LG. If RG and LG are easily interchangeable, then I feel better knowing the LG was considered better than Kanuch. But if you can't switch RG and LG, then I'm not as sure how good the new SUU LG is.
That's all I'm saying.
