re: we are not as talented as you think!

Have you considered that this could be because of the very lack of quality depth that we are talking about.

OC = 1 OC recruited in like 5 years. his backup is an OG recruit moved inside

Been discussed. With the way he has played, it is VERY REASONABLE that someone could have surpassed him...especially with him coming off an injury. As it is, he had a single guy to compete with and it was a dead heat up through fall practices.

But this pissing contest is pointless. I'll quote myself to make my final point...

Now, it's possible that all of those 10 guys just weren't any good either which would support your position that the talent evaluation is poor at OL. Furthermore, I agree that the development has been poor as well, particularly in the pass protection area. Size can somewhat account for the poor run blocking. But, we are getting no gains in the passing game from what should be an agile OL.

The bottom line is, whatever the reason, our OL is well below average. This is what Miles should be criticized for mostly. It is by far the biggest problem with our offense. The playcalling issues that everyone points to is in large part a product of the poor offensive line.
