But right now, he's a red. He's a core guy, and, all of sudden, guys walk in next year and see him, they'll be like, "OK, that's how we act. That's how we lift weights. That's how we condition. That's how we go to meetings. That's how we practice." Guys walk in, and they're scared of him. Trent Williams is scared of him, and he's a Pro Bowler. Trent said, "I don't want to mess with that guy." And [Scherff] is a rookie, but that's what starts building a culture. He's a red. You wait and see who we take at 21 in the draft this year. He's a red.

I think from this quote and what SM has said publicly, that this means he is staring straight at Center Ryan kelly from Alalabama.

Guy is tough, big, mean and from a big program who knows how to win. Plus he is a true leader, all the traits that SM is looking for. Oh yeah bonus he fills a position of need.
