Dude, I'm not going to take the time to verify your data but no one in their right mind thinks we have a talented OL compared to the better teams in the SEC


Nobody said we did. I never made that claim. I am simply refuting the claim that we have NO talent. I'm not the one saying "the cupboard is bare".

Now I'm sure you would argue the coaching is the difference but I'm not buying it and I don't think most objective fans are either.


No, I wouldn't. I would say: In the past we beat Kentucky, Vanderbilt and Nicholls with a lack of depth because we had a seasoned coaching staff. We don't have that now, so depth is an issue.

Once Kirby Smart gets experience, we will beat those teams with the depth level we have....but we will need depth to beat Tennessee, Florida, Alabama and LSU.

I KNOW we don't have the talent or the depth of Alabama or LSU and some others.

But we certainly DO have the talent and depth of Vanderbilt, Kentucky and yes...even Arkansas.

And I'm not saying that either. I am saying that we lack talent and depth on the OL; that is not the same thing as saying "we have NO talent." I would also add that recruiting rankings do not necessarily translate into a corresponding level of play on the field due to attrition and players simply not panning out for various reasons. But for whatever reasons, our OL is definitely not at the same level as the better teams in the SEC.
