You miss the point bud. We have to recruit from the inside, out. This is where we fail in recruiting. We need to take care of the top guys in the trenches before we go after skill guys. There's way more depth at skill positions than on the OL/DL. This is how you win MNC's. If we would go after the top OL players first, we can find skill players that are just as good as the top guys, at the bottom of the list. Look at our WR's this year. We have more guys than not, who were not top guys out of HS. OL is a different animal. You only have so many college ready O Linemen out there. We miss on almost all of these guys and try to get "project" Linemen. We have done much better on the Defensive side of the ball with recruiting and our D sucks. Bobo goes after skill guys, QB's and does well. But we need quality trench players first. The list of skill guys is endless, but the O-Line is not. You can only mold an O-Lineman so much, because they don't grow on trees. You have to get the guys that are straight up born that size. If not, you're stuck with mediocrity in the trenches and ZERO depth. This has to be fixed.

Mr. Gambini? That is a lucid, intelligent, well thought-out objection. Overruled.

Why can we see this, but the coaches can't? Tunsil, Young, Garcia and a jillion other massive OL prospects have slipped through our staff's hands in the past few years.
