O-Line recruiting?


Aug 31, 2014, 9:59 AM

Everyone keeps bashing Dabo and company stating that he has never made an emphasis on recruiting for the OLine and it's finally catching up with us.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but haven't we lost two highly touted recruits to career ending injury before they even hit the field? Destefano? And the other cat.
Our current recruiting class is loaded with OLinemen.
Last night was awful. But it seems like people are near sighted and making judgements about things they either don't know enough about, or had out of this world expectations.

Help is coming!!

Best O-line class headed our way!

Add to that and some dynamic playmakers (currently Freshmen) in place AND coming in.....the future looks bright!!

ALL teams have growing pains!!

Don't ya think UGA is going to sorely miss Gurley when he leaves after next year???

Go Tigers!!!

He was also fresh when our guys were gassed. Not to take away from his talent. But our guys were spent.

I agree. This Debbie Downer crap is infuriating.

We got what I expected to see. An offense with a backup QB against a stout defense. The fact that the game plan the whole time included DWatson should have told us that Cole wasn't elite.

Even in the first half the HUNH was slooooooowww..... There was no tempo.

This is going to be a tough year and anyone expecting a repeat of recent years success with the level of talent that left is delusional.

Yes, we've got a good class coming, but that won't help us until about 2016 at the earliest..

The problem with our Oline recruiting is that we sign a big class one year and then only 1 or 2 guys the next few cycles. You cant build consistency and depth that way.

O line and D line need to be 3 deep every year.

Good coaches don't rebuild, they reload.

O/L recruiting has been a horrible problem for YEARS!! this incoming class is the first one that looks good!! yes we did lose some outstanding players after they were on the team BUT we also failed in recruiting for far too long
