When was the last time TN had good offensive line?

Dooley's we're good at pass protection. He was a moron bit was smart enough to hire Sam Pittman

It is depressing. We had so many dominant Olines over the years and we have not had a good one in far too long.

Because our O-Line is undersized.

Also not very talented

2012 and 2013. Widely complained about in 2013, but we had no skill players worth a dam that year. Each of those starters made an NFL roster in some fashion.

Fat, slow, undersized, passive, and weak. We got our lunch taken away by the CHARLOTTE defensive line.......CHARLOTTE!!!!!!!

It's the Butch Jones way.

/end rant

I feel bad for the kids. A couple could have been good but for the total lack of strength training and player development.

I hope CJP is the guy to coach our young guys up and stress strength development.

Yes, but at least Charlotte has a good line, in spite of being a Conference USA team. They are 6th in the country vs. the run.

Huh? Bray (34 td's), Patterson, Hunter, Rivera. Yeah, no skill positions. If Wilcox doesn't leave UT probably wins the SEC E.

2012 under Dooley had some talented players. Couldn't or wouldn't run block however.

Kiffin somehow managed to coax 1300+ yards out of Hardesty and the Sullins twins in 2009.

Of recent vintage, those two O lines stand out.

Jones never could figure out that games were won and lost at LOS in SEC.

Dont know that UT has had a truly great O line since 2001 though. Ofenheusle, Weary, Coleman, and Wells all had that nasty streak.

I feel like we have had some teams that under achieved badly. 2012 Tennessee 2015 Tennessee 2016 Tennessee. I honestly thought through the first half at the Florida game in 2012 that we were back.
