We're about to pull in one of the greatest offensive line classes in recruiting history. The whole team was ill prepared. Calm down.

I think if we use Henry next year as the power back, we will be fine

You are alone. This was a matter of out receivers not getting open and our QB holding onto the ball as much as an OL issue.
This was not and never was going to be a dominant OL. I would love to see 3 or 4 new starters next year, but the 3 or 4 were not on campus or not ready yet. This should be our last patchwork OL for a good while.

Receivers weren't open because we have simple plays. Every unit played badly but it all stems from being simple to defend. We've gotten away with it because we have more talent than everyone else. We have a simple minded offensive coordinator with no imagination in designing or calling plays.

Maybe you should stick with being Buckeyebuckeye?
Cristobal did wonders with this years OL. Pendry absolutely stopped recruiting his last few cycles. Stoutland not recruiting at all once Miami surfaced didn't help matters either. Obviously there were guys like Cyko who were obvious takes but yeah OL depth is suffering.
We replaced two first rounders and the one of the most individually decorated offensive lineman in all of college football history. And despite that this OL played well. Hell we had a "power run game" despite not having a power back at all until Henry emerged. I love Yeldon and Drake but they are both all purpose backs. And Fowler isn't the same since his injury (he is one of those that is at the weight that if they don't hit rehab hard they lose all their ability because of an injury).

Why is everyone coming at the O? The defense by far cost this..didnt we nearly give up 10 third downs.
Miss the times when scoring 30 was more than enough to beat teams
