Why does our OL continue to suck?

[BIG TONE SOPRANO]

Sounds like yet again we won’t be able to do much with our dogshit OL that is worse than last year which is sad. What in the hell is so hard about getting 320 pound guys to move their feet and perfect simple blocking schemes???? It escapes me. We aren’t going to be able to do shit yet again on offense regardless of the talent of the have at the skill positions.

It’s probably time to reboot my 247 poll from last year titled “what’s more effective - current OL or 5 300lb gunny sacks stuffed full of crap?”

 

[Adolph Coors]

to be fair, most olines suck

 

[RedSeaRising]

Poor coaching, undersized, not strong enough, not talented, pussies, etc

OL is most successful when it is the long game: bringing in guys that fit your system, developing them over time and a system they have continuity with.

We're spotty in all of those areas.

I’ve been trying to figure out what our system is for a long time now.

I'm sure taking like 1 scholarship kid a year for the 5 man OL doesn't help

Most of them had good offers. Maybe we suck at development.

We do have way too many honkies on the OL. We need to send Mickey down south to Black church and find the fattest assed southern momma's that he can and convince them to send their boys up to Lincoln

I like that old joke on rrs saying the ideal size for an NG was 5’8” 340lbs.

When will people realize it’s not a coincidence we “win” recruiting battles for these guys? Most of the time the offers they get from LSU, Georgia, etc. are just placeholder offers. In reality, they’re way down their board.

Maybe there’s one guy a year we pull away from a Pedo state or Michigan. But the rest of the time we’re competing against nc state, Minnesota, asu, etc. At that point you need great coaches and talent developers to get the most out of those players. Both of which we don’t have.

My point was that we don't take near enough
