Chronicle: 2 probable NFLers anchor Stanford's offensive line - Griffins78 - 08-12-2011

Good article by Tom Fitzgerald in the Chronicle about David DeCastro and Jonathan Martin: (Article here) that highlights the boulder-like foundation of our offensive line and gets a little personal. Makes for good vibrations and it is nice to see other players getting features. Makes me feel like the media is getting more excited about the team and beginning to hunt for new stories and new angles.

Stanford put out a training camp update on the line:

Martin sounds much more optimistic than De Castro. I'll be interested to see whether Luck is consulted about the performance of all of the units--special teams, kicking, maybe even (in a delightfully meta touch) the communications department.

Here is another article in the San Jose Merc a few days ago on David DeCastro: (Stanford football notes: DeCastro keeps Cardinal on guard) with quotes and comments from "Stanford's first-year offensive line coach Mike Bloomgren spent the past four seasons with the New York Jets" plus other tid bits about other players.
