He could have done more. He never sit well with in-state coaches and spent his time trying to recruit Texas and Oklahoma high schools, from his TCU days. I know things could have been worse if not for guys like Mark Anderson, Freddie Roach, Roman Harper, etc., but his complete lack of effort in trying to sign linemen was always baffling to me.

I agree with you. We could have been much better off had Fran decided to go after the big hosses who live in the trenches. As a guy who loved to run the option you would think that would have been his first priority. But whatever. What's done is done. Fran's career is washed up and we are performing at a level that hasn't been seen in Tuscaloosa since the 1970s. In the end we came out on top.

Imagine this occurring for five motherfricking seasons. The way Sherman was able to repair the O Line in the wake of Fran was unbelievable with guys like Joeckel, Matthews, Pat Lewis, Ogbuehi, Jarvis Harrison
