Why did we spend all this NIL money on receiver and no tackles?

Brown, Anderson, Hill but not one tackle? You had not one but two freshman starting tonight. Receivers are worthless if you only have one second to throw the ball. Total waste of resources and talent.

Hindsight is 20/20 but looking back it's kind of insane how much resource Austin Thomas put into WR's and how much he didn't put into the Oline.

Because Receivers are sexy and make noise , and all good Lineman do is win football games

Well, the C and G we brought in were highly regarded, and they can’t block either. We need a refund on Kelly and a lot of NIL money!

It’s not hindsight; football starts at the line of scrimmage and if you’re not at least competitive there nothing else matters….

Why is it that nobody ever mentions the offensive line coach, Brad Davis? We pound Kelley and Sloan, but Davis has done a crappy job coaching the offensive line. He's more of a recruiter than a teacher.

We did not buy the talent we thought we did. These guys are worse than what we had under Miles and O. This looks like Curly Hallman talent.

Nah

Berry
Anderson
Brown
Green
Delane
Haulcy
Whit
Gooden
Dom


We have talent. We have a statue of a QB who’s hurt and a line that can’t block, and coaches unable to adapt to what we have.

Couldn’t agree more. I watched the bama
/USCe game and the biggest take away was bama had the O line to finish the game.

They tried and lost out to other teams.

Agreed, I said a few weeks ago that he needed to be replaced. His lines constantly under perform. He might be a “good recruiter”, but what does it matter if they cannot develop?

They thought they had a playoff tackle.

You can scheme around a weaker line or a qb that can’t run. But you absolutely can’t have both at the same time.
