[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 381879, member: 265"] Jeez Louise, [I]another[/I] of these threads? So a few points. Given our offensive style, we probably would have passed on a lot of the OLs Ugag recruited this year. That's because we actually [I]hit[/I] people when we block and don't waddle into position and push. True, it's best to have guys like Braun, Devine, and Mason; big and fast is the ticket. Still, looking at the O and saying that "kids don't want to play OL in our offense" is missing most of the story about the way we recruit OLs. It's a two-way street. When Chan was coach we got a lot of really big guys and zone blocked; now we don't. It's that simple. Second, the Guy is right. As I keep saying here, Tech fans are spoiled rotten. We look at a record that 90% of college football programs would kill to have and we're "accepting mediocrity". Problem = even a rep for getting to the top isn't sure to help: see FSU and (again) Texas this year. I think Coach wants to win a MNC at Tech and I think, if the cards fall right, he could. Third, there's a reason the pros like our WRs. It's because they're big, know how to block, and can catch. This will continue. UNC, as a glance at pro rosters will tell you, has nothing on Tech in this department. We know how to spot them. [/QUOTE]
