re: Can Dominick McKinley be what Maason Smith was supposed to be?

I would be surprised if he wasn’t much better. He has a better body type and already understands pad level and looks like he will be a better technician

Nobody wanted to hear it at the time, but some coaches like Saban thought Maason would make a better offensive tackle with his body type. He could never overcome his high center of gravity playing on the interior. It just wasn’t hard for SEC level olinemen to gain leverage over Maason

Dom comes in better built physically to play on the interior.
