I'm constantly mystified as to why people try to pencil him into plans so often.

You're right, we don't.  That's why I said best case scenario.  I asked the question to see if anyone knows if he has played center.  He missed his whole rookie year so it will be tough for him.  Can you show me where people have pencilied him in?  Hopefully no player is pencilied in, you should have to earn your spot.  At least you can erase it if he is "pencilied " in

He is constantly mentioned as "hopefully/maybe Hodges will be ready to take over at LG/RG" etc

Last year it was "too bad Hodges got hurt - he'd be better than so-and-so" 

If you haven't seen that stuff all over the board - you've been missing a lot of posts. 

I'm aware of how you worded it and you can squawk about the semantics all you'd like. 
I just consider him a complete unknown and don't understand where all the optimism comes form. 
I hope he somehow proves the optimists to be smarter than me, but I'm just trying to lend perspective on the odds of that happening.
