Pretty easy to figure it the frick out that it is a work in progress. That's all I need to know. I don't need to look at anybody else's teams to see that the we don't have an "experienced" line despite the ranking star gazers.

Everybody's OL is a WIP.

We had 3 starters returning from most accounts a functional OL in '16. Are you really suggesting a team's OL can't transition from one season to the next unless they have more than 3 starters returning?

KJ got a lot of grief in '16. Most was deserved. But by season's end, he had become a solid LT. He plays worse now than he did at his worst in '16. How is that explained? Is he playing hurt?

If they suck at their new position, move them back...because they sure as hell didn't suck then. Whatever it is, it's not working. That's on O, canada, and grimes

And you need to compare that to other schools. Ive got a feeling that's very normal.

Maybe oh maybe it could be our new HC that has a 30% win pct???

And how does that stack up against other teams in the SEC? How about against Syracuse and Troy?
