After Bama beat us in the championship game Bama started loading up on both sides of the line while we just loaded up on wrs and cornerbacks. That is where Bama started to dominate us from that point on and coach O is trying to reload on those positions. We are doing better on the dline but oline depth is not there yet. He better get it right on next year’s class.

Orgeron has been beaten head to head in recruiting in the trenches multiple years in a row though. He's landed a verbal from Roy so that's improvement and still has a battle for Guillory this year. He missed on guys like Marvin Wilson, P.Mathis, I.Buggs, Sopsher, and back filled those classes with a bunch of guys who've not panned out as even starters yet or have left the program.

So even if Orgeron knows what the problem is, I wouldn't say he's been able to address it yet. Look at OL targets for 2020. We are averaging 1 starting level player each recruiting class on the OL. Long way to go to improve the trenches in recruiting and his approach to signing volume in 2018 backfired
