Top 10 heaviest DL by year.

2015: 2019:

344 340
311 311
308 309
301 306
297 306
286 304
274 304
266 300
260 290
259 285

2019 DL isn’t only bigger, it’s significantly bigger.

 

[BruinVol]

Only one I need. Our defense veered small. You missed a lot with that farewell letter fail.



Lol. That’s when you know you lost you always go to that line about the letter. Well done

As for the 2015 defense is was legit. If our D plays that well this year we will win 8-9 games.


lol

2015 interior DL two deep

344
311
297
286


Averaged 309+

Right now, it’s 340, 311, 309, 304, 299, and 290. The guy at 311 is 6’7”. There are two behind them at 304 and 306. The guys actually look like they have lifted weights.

Plus, 2015 was the best line play on both sides we had under Butch, and Tuttle was hurt half the year. So, I think your numbers are proving our point.

 

[ChismsHeadband]

So like, why are we arguing about DL size and why is it so simultaneously confusing and verifiable?

 

[MrVolton]

Most shocking thing to me is no mention of Malzahn and Auburn.

 

[SweetasSoda]

Figured Jimbo would have been a little higher in %.

I thought Coach O would have won.

 

[VolGee4]

Lol

You really need to visit utsports.com


309 was the average of the two deep interior DL in 2015

You can’t use the average because one heavy one will skew the number. The mean is a better indicator.

 

[chargervol]

So owen williams being listed at 297 on UT sports is wrong but your weight you are giving is accurate?

Is that your best argument?

Oh ffs. We weren't averaging where we needed to be size and build wise, anywhere. We are targeting bigger recruits overall and the ones that were already here, have made better gains than they ever have.

You can't see it or agree, noted. You think it's the sos and everyone else thinks your fos. It's all on record, okay? You don't like how we view it and nobody gives af what you think. Covers everything, now bye.

I wonder if Pruitt will try to keep these guys this heavy or we will see them slim down slightly?

I hope they can contribute but the size of those 3 guys don’t mean they will

lol

 

[butchna]

Even fail when you quote lol and the fact that the mere mention of your pious farewell letter stokes such an indignant reaction only adds to your fail

lol

 

[BruinVol]

Agreed but when you don’t include the DEs that does the opposite on the bottom end.

Imo we were plenty big on the DL in 2015 and in 16

We weren’t nearly big enough on the Ol and that’s where we see a significant change now

 

[NMVol]

I am very sad to report that the damage to my cousin's brain is too severe for him to wake up. We could keep him alive indefinitely if we give him a permanent breathing tube and feeding tube but have decided him to make him comfortable and to let nature take its course. My family is very appreciative of the thoughts, prayers and well wishes that we have received from all of you. Thank you.

Sorry for your loss. Thanks for your grace.

Lawson? Or that Sheri replacement? I remember 2015 when we had 2 true freshmen OL holding their own vs uga and bama. Bama players said that was the strongest team they had played all year. We beat up on all the teams we should have beat. Made those midwestern #12 ranked NW guys look like nobodies. 2015 was actually a really, really good team.

Then Lawson left and shiz blew up. Lawson was like Pruitt when he was at UGA. The only guy trying to enforce strict, high standards and toughness.

Dave Lawson is very respected in the S&C world. He had dudes ready

All I know is, the 247 podcast, with guys who literally see these dudes in person and not on video or in pictures, have spent 15-20 minutes talking about how amazed they are that we are so much bigger even since the spring

The 2019 team dwarfs the 2015 team up front on the defensive side of the ball

Sad to say but that 9-4 2015 team was our best overall team since 2007. So many narrow losses to elite teams. A decent chunk of the starters wound up in the NFL. At the time, I had no idea I was watching the best football I would get to see for a long, long time.

 

[SLICKYINC]

So like, why are we arguing about DL size and why is it so simultaneously confusing and verifiable?

Because BV came in crying about posts saying we look better this year and he’s seen the same posts for a decade. Glasses broke scenario.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

 

[butchna]

We weren’t nearly big enough on the Ol and that’s where we see a significant change now

Got pushed around...that’s size and strength. Was fast and quick but at a disadvantage when it came down to the nitty gritty. Tuttle beasted before he got cheap shotted but the other interior DL got no push. K-Mac was fat until his junior year so that’s where you managed to get confused.

 

[SSVol]

Because BV came in crying about posts saying we look better this year and he’s seen the same posts for a decade. Glasses broke scenario.

And that will remain true for as long as we keep doing the same things. 'Cept we aren't. So...

 

[butchna]

You can’t talk about the 2019 DL without including the DEs/OLBs

You guys know dang well that’s the truth. Guys likes Taylor, Allen and Johnson are DL and you guys know it

They’re edge rushers...and they chase down running backs. Know more.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

More important question than arguing with the brick wall that is Bruin, is there practice today?

 

[butchna]

All I know is, the 247 podcast, with guys who literally see these dudes in person and not on video or in pictures, have spent 15-20 minutes talking about how amazed they are that we are so much bigger even since the spring

NO difference! Zero! LOL!
- Bruin prolly!
