2nd best rushing offense in the SEC, but keep pretending like you know what the frick you're talking about

OM had the 3rd best rushing offense in the league in 2010 and returned all 5 OL starters and had the worst OL in the country in 2011. We had Masoli, yall have Dobbs with a great RB combo. You know your OL sucks. You know if Richmond were the 3 and gone tackle that everyone thought he was, he would not have RS. You are arguing just to argue which makes you a chode

Our starting LT is a fifth year senior, and three year starter, who came into the program as a consensus four star with offers from Tennessee, Florida, Florida State, Stanford, USC, UCLA, and on, and on, etc. Our OL, and offense, was pretty effective this year. One of the best rushing attacks in the nation, no question.

Richmond will start next year as a RS Freshman. We obviously haven't seen him in game action, but by all accounts he is a very good player.

This is one of the most ridiculous statements I've ever seen on this site. Plenty of stud OLs red-shirt. In fact, true freshmen starting at OL is more an indictment on the current depth than red-shirting is for a freshman OL.

Here are some first-round OLs in the past four drafts that red-shirted.

'15: Brandon Scherff, Cedric Ogbuehi, Cameron Irving
'14: Greg Robinson, Taylor Lewan, Zack Martin
'13: Lane Johnson, Jonathan Cooper, DJ Fluker
'12: Matt Kalil, Riley Reiff

That's 11/21 first-round OLs who red-shirted. That doesn't include guys who played different positions or played just enough snaps to burn their redshirt.

I understand that Ole Miss has managed to have two elite left tackles recently, but don't act like taking a red-shirt proves somebody isn't talented
