Again, not the point I?m making. Throw out LT. all and any players that improve the team. Starter or depth.Quote:

It will speak volumes to either Loadholt and or James attitude if he plays major minutes at Bama.
Except James entered the portal and told us he was leaving before we got sneh. In fact, we had the chance to get Sneh a week earlier and told him no. But once James decided to leave, we circled back to Sneh. As SVS said on the previous page, the reason we took Sneh was because James left.Quote:

In 2026, time will tell very quickly whether improvements have been made in our OL through recruiting/the portal, and development.Quote:

Ran for over 200 against Tenn, put up over 450 total yards against a solid Florida defense, Shapen threw for 380 against Texas, and scored 38 against Upig.
After the UGA and Mizzou games, the offense went to shit. Gave up 8 sacks to UGA/Mizzou along with fairly constant pressure.
It is easy to say that the guys we lost were all terrible. The last few games they played weren't great - the Wake one especially, but the fact that Mizzou, UGA and the bears were able to put pressure on the QB is most likely due to the fact that their DLs were three of the better in the conference by the time we played them.
Our bottom of the SEC defense screwed us more than the OL did but that's what everyone wants to fixate on as "The Problem".Quote:

we scored plenty points to win. need better D
Mike Bloomgren, one of the top offensive line coaches is now available, since he lost his job with the Browns when they hired Todd Monken. He will not be available long!
Sure would save a lot of marriagesQuote:
