[QUOTE="jacketup, post: 813651, member: 630"] Friedgen was underrated as OL coach. Hamilton played behind some pretty good OL. But I agree--the OL hasn't been good lately. Johnson's offense worked OK with guard sized guys playing tackle, but that doesn't work for the passing game. A lot of pass blocking is just having big guys who can get in the way. The 6'5" 300 lb guys with good feet didn't want to come here and crawl on the ground and cut block. That's a big reason why the passing game was never very good after 2009--Johnson's second year, with Gailey's recruits. Anyway, we've been trying to run a balanced offense with an OL that isn't cut out for a balanced offense. That's why we started a true Fr. at right tackle last year. This year we will start a grad transfer and Williams will be a soph. But we still lack experienced depth at tackle. I am concerned about next year--and an injury this year could set us back. Rankins leaving was not a good thing, but maybe he didn't like the physicality of the game at this level. [/QUOTE]
