From what I read on the blocked thread they're still struggling. That's bound to happen with new guys learning a new system. But I'm hoping they are getting some positions cemented so they can start working together as a unit. If, like last year, it gets carried over until summer, it seldom works itself out.
If you don't have the horses, sometimes you make a decsion and put the best five in and let them work. There are subtle little things beyond blocking calls that create positive things with O-linemen that have familiarity with the guy's style of play next to them.
As an example, last year LSU; I've never seen worse communication between a guard and center when a safety or LB was in the gap a half dozen times and at least twice both turned away from the guy and he came clean. **** before I got to college I learned if I were turning away and even if the center had responsibility, step that inside leg into the gap, you might get him to trip.
