Tell me our offensive line will be better (or a lot better) in 2018. And tell my why and how.

Cant think of anything more important for next year. Our OL was an incredible force multiplier for opponents this year.

Not being able to run, unable to get short yardage, near hopeless in first and goal situations, and having your QB assaulted on a regular basis is no way to go through life. Not where we wanna be when Jesus comes back.

Imagine this season with a good OL? We would have rolled over everyone. ****, maybe Rosier looks a lot better behind a real OL, with a running attack and pass blocking?

Anyway, tell me we will be better. Lie if you must, make up ****, but I just want to hear it.

Huge question mark given the influx of inexperienced (yet talented) guys. Hillery, Herbert, Scaife, Gaynor, Reed will all be vying for serious PT. Need to hit on 2-3 of those guys in the spring.

Darling and McDermott graduate
 
Rt is generally easier for young guys to play than left tackle. So with that being said give me a line up of
Lt St. Louis
Lg gaynor
C Gauthier
Rg donaldson
Rt Herbert

We are building some good depth though. Really like Cleveland Reed and Delone Scaife as interior prospects

Surely the blind side will be better off with Tyree there.

Donaldson in the weight room will help up the middle.

Cannot see us being better at RT.
 
I would think that , a young, talented but inexperienced player should be able to step up and outperform the level of play we saw this year?

Everyone else has a better OL. We must be able to do it?
 
All the returning OL should be better next year. How much better remains to be seen. I did say should not will.
 
Our OL got absolutely dominated against Clemson. We aren't going anywhere until we get that unit fixed.

Gauthier was better at LG from what I've seen.

LT St. Louis
LG Gauthier
C Gaynor
RG Donaldson
RT Herbert

Brown, Scaife, Reed, Hillery, Dykstra, Johnson, Campbell off the bench.

Very young but perhaps more talented.

If you want more beef:

LT Donaldson
LG Reed
C Gaynor
RG Scaife
RT St. Louis

both groups got dominated. we need to start stacking talent year after year and find out what schools like Bama , Georgia & Clemson are doing
in S&C area that we are not at the present time. We have not looked fast and explosive since Butchs guys and his S&C Moffet left?

- George Brown.


SMH. Talk about a guy that totally phucked us at that Tackle spot. He should have been filling that spot opposite Tyree.
