Let's talk about the OL for a minute, shall we?

How long have we been talking about a bad offensive line? Too long. Figure out who the best offensive line coach in the business is and hire his azz. We won't be playing championship football until this gets fixed.
 
IMHO, the biggest problem with our offensive line is that they are undersized as a unit. There are plenty of mistakes and missed assignments, but that can be coached and as players develop they are able to make adjustments and become more coachable. But no amount of coaching can make up for a talent/size deficit between the big uglies on offense VS some of the monstrous d-linemen that we face. Fulmer is there, and I am sure his sage advise is welcome, especially since his area of expertise happens to be the same area where we are desperately lacking. I would go as far as to say that if we consistently recruit 3 star talent for the interior linemen that are circa 6'3-6'5 300+ lbs and more talented tackles maybe a little bigger, that we would fair far batter against the likes of the SEC defensive lines.
