Yeah we've had rough oline play ever since 2013. Honestly I've surprised there hasn't been much Changes there



I think for the most part, our Oline play has been good. When we play fronts with future NFL players on them, its going to be tough sledding any way you slice it. That, and it seems like there has been one, sometimes two weak links on there, which, well, you know the old adage.

Stoutland to Cristobal was a night and day switch.

Stout was a technician, he wasn't much of a recruiter and didn't need to be. NFL saw that talent and snatched him right up.

Mario was a more personal guy, came through in his elite recruiting prowess. His coaching ability was a step down, as apparent by the eventual demotion with Brent Key's addition(someone Saban has tried to hire every time he needed an OL Coach).

I think Bama's "elite" players on the line have been more consistent in recent years, but the "weak links" are less so.
