re: Why do we continue to recruit 3 star lineman?

Offensive linemen are about the toughest thing to project.
In the 2014-2015 classes, 4 guys were 5-star OTs. 3 of them went undrafted.
Meanwhile, an unranked guy who was about 220 pounds in high school, and played QB, walked on at Alabama STATE as a TE, switched over to OT eventually, after 5 years is now a 1st round draft pick at OT.
1st round OT draft picks this year:
Williams - 5-star
Dillard - low 3-star
Howard - 0-star
McGary - low non Top 247 4-star

Stars rarely matter w OL. Just get 5 guys with the raw tools, height, weight, athleticism, smarts... get them in, redshirt them, develop them. And start playing once their redshirt sophomores or juniors.... and we will have solid lines consistently
