Why does LSU struggle to recruit true OTs?

I don't know...I think it's keeping us from potentially being MUCH more successful on the field, though.

The most bizarre thing is that we have a lot of recruiting ammo for top OT prospects...#1 thing being that we have very good OG's...we also traditionally have very good RB's and WR's. We have many tools for a great offense.

QB and OT...those have been the positions that have been keeping us from taking the next steps for many years now. I think we're currently fixing our QB woes...it took a transfer to do this, perhaps. I think our OT woes haven't changed much...we're hoping Dare, Wire or Deculus change that, because this current class doesn't look like the ticket.

We could absolutely use improvement on the DL. Landing Ika was huge, and landing another SDE/DT in this class will be also.

Next year we need to load up on the lines...3 true OT's, 2-3 OG's, 1 C...3-4 non-NT DL, 1-2 NT DL.
