A better question would be, why the frick don't we recruit better offense of an defense of linemen? Oh wait, I know, because that would require us winning championships. You can't get the big hogs without the hardware to go with it. They want to go where they can win a championship. That is the only way the big boys get recognized, so we don't recruit them well. O-Line and D-Line win championships and we don't have either one. Never really have except for a player here or there. When is the last time our O-Line was great all the way across? We have never had one like Bama or LSU.

OL has been tough for us, but we recruit DL as well as anyone over the last 10 years except maybe Bama. This year's DL class will be one of the top 2 in the nation, probably.

ETA: You know, I thought about insulting you, but I feel bad doing so.

Just so you are aware, this particular part of the sentence should read "offensive and defensive linemen."
