the worst but it sucks that happens to anyone especially right before the season starts at like spending a ton of money on tickets to a game then finding out you can't go last second, yeah you can watch it on tv but it's still not the same.

Bc I almost had a heart attack too. I thought it was a starter at first. Good luck in the recovery process Oliver. I how reinjuring the same knee you injured in high school isn't going to ruin your career like Sam Bradford. I feel for the both of you

he arrived on Campus. He was a favorite in the football office and just a good guy that deserved better than an injury. I hope OJ comes back stronger and better than ever.

...compared to a guy on an internet board calling out a very successful coach.
Dude, you continue to show logic and intelligence on a level that I'm shocked you even grace us w/ your presence.

We only have 21 seniors and we currently have 23 players who will go on scholarship next year and we are taking at least one more DL. We have three senior OL and one Junior who transferred. If we followed your plan and signed 5 a year, since most OL redshirt we would end up with 25 OL on scholarship. What positions would you take those 7 to 8 scholarships from? Almost all D1 programs carry 17-18 OL.

We should take 4 Olinemen every single year. That's 20 over 5 years. Given that you can always expect to lose a few players due to natural attrition, transfers, etc. you'll likely maintain an average 16 to 17 players on your roster at all times. What we've done the last two years by signing only two guys is absolutely insane.

Question Mr. Expert
Aug 27, 2014, 8:23 PM
[ in reply to Losing OL left and right, this is why you don't take ] |
|
Which position(s) on the team are you willing to permanently undermanned at in order to carry the number of OL (25 - 5 each class x 5 eligibility years) you want to carry? Think carefully, because unlike a WR or RB who doesn't work out there can be moved to defense is nowhere to move an OL who doesn't have what it takes to contribute.

Good luck with surgery and rehab.
Don't our Olinemen wear protective knee braces?
I guess we are still doing some hitting.
