An offensive lineman who's one of the top 10 overall players in his recruiting class pretty much is automatic. It's not press clippings. It's a body type and athletic skill set (basically quick feet). Amarius Mims had a 7 foot wingspan and ran like a tight end in the 11th grade.

We've had 5-star offensive linemen never get off the bench here. It just doesn't happen as often in Tuscaloosa as in other places.

All schools can’t afford or won’t pay for the players, but their fans still prefer winning.

I root for one of those, and hopefully that’s changing as Arkansas might wake up the Tyson/Hunt/Walton money.

If they do…I’ll be happier. I don’t think any rational person thinks that starting with bettter players than your opponent doesn’t give you a huge leg up.
