Wendell Moe getting some love

Athlon says they're 3rd best, I think we're either 1 or 2. I don't see any weak spots
I don't think we'd be going out on a limb to say Tennessee has the best OL in the league.

Google agrees:

1. Tennessee Volunteers: The unit anchors an offense that averaged an explosive 466.3 total yards per game. They return redshirt senior guard Wendell Moe Jr.—a Walter Camp Preseason All-American who transferred from Arizona—alongside an experienced, cohesive starting five.

Another good take.

Offensive Line: Tennessee

This specific position unit is the one no one seems to be talking about enough. Games are won and lost in the trenches in the SEC. They always have been. It feels like with the amount of new players turnstiling their way through the SEC every year because of the transfer portal, the amount of instability year over year at this unit is rampant. That doesn’t mean there won’t be really good units in the league this season, it just highlights the difficulty in finding continuity each offseason. That’s not the case for Tennessee.

The Vols have the best offensive line in the conference, and it’s not particularly close. They return freshman All-American David Sanders Jr. along with four other starters. They brought in one of the best centers in the country in Sam Pendleton. No one in the conference returns more starters on the offensive line and they should look similar to their 2024 unit that was a finalist for the Joe Moore Award.

I do respect Moe, and think our OL is gonna be solid, one of our strengths ...

... but this Marler dude loses so much credibility, trying to say that LSU's running backs and linebackers are at the very top of the SEC, over those of Tennessee.

Maybe he should get off his lazy arse and do some actual homework about actual production last year, who they returned, and who they brought in. 🤔

The job of a sports hack during the offseason is to churn out XX column inches that grab eyeballs and generate clicks. Headline and mail it in. Clear spirits and fizzy beverages on the rocks. Prideful display of jade. Insider trash talk, even naysaying Keith Jackson.

Yeah, sometimes, just sometimes, folks, you wanna herd them into oncoming traffic.

I don't know where to rank our OL. But, I know that whichever QB runs the team, if he's given decent protection, we gonna terrorize our opponents.
Given the QB a Hooker 2022 OL, and well, you got got a Jimmie Walker team.

My only OL concerns are
Perry playing out of his position
Ory being promised the RT position.
