True about line guys, but some of you were in uncontrolled jizz mode with every "skill" position that would get signed....almost Randy Marsh over db's. Nary a word over time about the O line. Not that it would make a difference this year. You had a new coordinator come in....AND someone decided to fire his offensive line coach during the summer. So Peetz and Davis don't have meaningful contact with these guys until late July early August????

That’s where this team is suffering most
Both sides of the ball

It’s been all down hill for O since the championship game, but 2019 was his team. Not full if Les Miles recruits.



2019 had Miles's seniors. 2020 was all O's recruits.

truth, the line is rarely talked about and often forgotten but it can never be allowed to be neglected as far as recruiting goes. the line, on both sides of the ball, is where all success starts and ends

I might be wrong but they must of had some phenomenal coaches that year on defense. The same year David Carmona started as a red shirt freshman, they also had the #1 defense in the SEC and 11th in the nation. He was also the most active and productive DT. The Tiger Rag named him the Tasmanian Devil. So is recruiting about size or productivity? Lynn Amedee’s offense killed them that year. It created an ESPN highlight for #1 Auburn with 4 interceptions after Phil Bennett’s defense held them to 3 points.
