any other position, then yeah, i may agree...but this is left tackle we are talking about. the bane of our existence, and a strength for bama for the last few years.

LT is more important in the NFL, but OL play is obviously very important and Bama has been very good there. I don't think you can say bad LT play has cost us games. Last year we played most of the season, including the top 2 defensive fronts we faced in USCe and Bama with a guard at LT and did fine. Obviously you can't do that permanently but with guys we already have (Collins who maybe stays in 2014, Hawkins, Pocic, plus the possibilty of Brumflied and or Clapp growing into Tackles, I wonder if they do take another T if they strike out on Robinson? Personally I hope they do of course, but they may just wait for 2015.
