I see so many positive steps to our future success as a result of bringing Matt Luke into our program. I know that many of you, probably, are tired of my saying how vital our success relies on our OL, but it has been for a long time, to quote an old TV show, "Our Weakest Link". I think Coach Luke is fixing that, and we are going to reap the benefits of that change. If we can get the OL to be DOMINATE, we will be in the hunt, and we can be at or close to the top, every year. Don't get me wrong, please. All position groups are vital, but fix that OL, and the rest will work out pretty well.

Agree! I just hope that Luke and his family are happy until his retirement. He’s awesome! And the best at his position. Dabo, please keep him happy!

Matt tightened up the Oline some last year

So he should be upping his game more with his own recruits next 2-3 years.

Speaking of Luke's recruiting, is it just me or is Luke getting leeway to offer more OL than previous coaches? I have no problem with it because I trust he knows what he's doing.
Or is this just a result of increased scholarships to 105 or some combiation?

Right on, Dugatiger®!
The trenches are where it starts! Build a solid foundation and everything else will hopefully transition!!

Like many others, I called that hire a homerun. Wish he would have stuck around in Athens.

If you can't win in the trenches, you probably won't win many football games.
Matt Luke has been a "program builder" from the first minute he stepped on campus. Once his guys get going, I would fully expect our OL to be one of the core strengths of the program.
