Well, you don't need a OL with a ton of weight to get a power running game. OL play has as much to do with strength and techniques than just shear size. Size doesnct hurt though. Size will wear down lineman, but being in the SEC, most teams have quality depth on the D-line so wearing them down takes a back seat to talent and strength and technique. The other aspect of a powerbrun game is the size of the backs. Mizzou has good size at the position now. You need backs that can break tackles at times, like on the goal line. I think Odom is going the direction of larger OL. I think the recruit from Illinois is over the 300 lb. mark as is I believe the juco transfer Howell. I can see the direction and I like it.
