The most important thing for Kiffin the next month is to evaluate who is still here. With the portal opening he’s going to need to rerecruit the guys we need to hold on to, and tell a few guys to start looking. The OLine is going to be critical. He has got to figure out who actually has potential out of this group. These guys are all 4 and 5 star guys. If he can retain the ones that just need better coaching next year we could be much improved. I’ve got no clue which ones have the potential, but I feel better about the freshman that played. Maybe they can improve.

I agree this time will be important. If I were Lane, I would want to know why the Oline seemed to lack chemistry and didn't really develop as a group as the year unfolded.

Maybe the answer was coaching but not close enough to the situation to know.

Like Ory Williams and Carius...think they seem to be keepers

I refuse to believe that the issue is the staff missed on their evals of the ENTIRE OLine.

Something seems fundamentally broken in the coaching of them.

I think his offensive scheme will require guys that have some intelligence to play OLine. OM was much more complex than what we were last year. Lots of tricky alignments. We have to purge the guys who can’t get it.

Fortunately his staff broke down the film when ole miss played us. They knew we had weak OT and decided they coild olay a 3 man front snd stop the run and drop 8 in. Coverage . But he can see the guys that weren’t playing perform in practice on offense. Since defensive staff stays they already know
