re: So Matt Luke...

Except for a few obvious guys in a recruiting class, it's extraordinarily difficult to project how a senior in high school will develop as an offensive lineman. It's very rare that an 18-19 year old can contribute immediately. It's almost unfair to expect them to come in and block guys who may have had years in a college S&C program. I'm not making excuses for anyone - that's just the reality of the situation.

I hate to say it, but I don't think it's going to be any better next season. I think we're going to have to bring in at least a couple of JUCO guys. We definitely can't let o line recruits get away in the hopes that we land a higher rated guy. We're way beyond the point of gambling on one recruit. If a 3 star honor roll kid with even a moderate amount of athletic ability and something to prove wants to commit, then sign him up. If that's all it takes to make a 4 or 5 star guy want to look elsewhere, that should be a huge red flag anyways.
