Take a look at our roster...

It appears that Dabo forgot to recruit OL in 2013 and 2014. That may have something to do with the reason why we can't do that now.

at our inability to run the ball - well, there's a pretty clear reason for that. That's the point I'm making repeatedly because evidently few of you are aware of it, and keep lamenting our inability to run as if there's some sort of inscrutable, complicated reason why our run game stinks. As if playing Feaster is going to change that (smh). And why we have bring in defensive linemen in some cheeseball "jumbo" package to try to get 1 yard at home against a 5-4 team in the 4th quarter. We played in the national championship game last season, right???
I'm amazed we've done as well this year after looking at the utter lack of experience we have on OL. Those guys have done a great job of pass protecting - but they don't know how to run block... and evidently we don't have many tight ends that can (or will) block for the run game.

Agreed, we like to think our program has reached "elite" status (and in many respects it has) but our O-line is pretty bad. Poor job at pipeline recruiting as you suggested. Hopefully it's not an issue going forward but really hurting us this year!
GO TIGERS!!!!

You must not keep up with recruiting. And that's ok, just don't act like you know anything about it when you don't.

You show me where the junior and senior OL numbers are. There are very few.

Don't have to be a junior or a senior to be a good player or contribute. You must not keep up with football. By the time kids are seniors or juniors, if they are really good, they are already playing in the NFL. We have pretty good upperclassmen at center and at right guard, you surely know the roster very well so you probably know that. Had one kicked off last year that would have been a senior this year, one that had a very significant back injury and had to quit football.
And those lower classmen that are starting for Clemson o-line are going to go down as the best and most successful linemen in clemson history. Idk if you are criticizing recruiting or what, but either way it's better than its ever been before and only getting better. Sit back and enjoy or find a new team

We offered 2 Cs, 11 OTs and 5 OGs in 2013, and 6 OGs and 7 OTs in 2014......
31 offers in 2 years doesnt exactly equate to forgetting

Would you also desire to have their passing game instead of ours?

with or without running lanes. Most overrated team in the country. They have tremendous talent, but they are the definition of being one dimensional.
