[QUOTE="Techster, post: 69070, member: 360"] Listen, I don't think there's anything wrong with having undersized guys, or guys that are "exceptions" on the team. You make a good point that GT can't make a living off prototypical elite players, but at the same time we're also treading a fine line if we take to many "exceptions" on the team. Shaq Mason is a great example of an "exception". He's 6'1 300+ lbs, and isn't the prototypical OG. But he's also a potential All-American and an All-ACC player. But on the other end of the spectrum there's Green. Very good player when healthy, but if he's not healthy and on the sidelines that talent doesn't do us any good. It's not his fault, and I don't want to make it sound like I have anything against him, but size does matter at some positions. There's a pretty good reason why DLs and OLs have gotten bigger over time. I get what you're saying, but at the same time, you can't ignore depth has been a pretty issue for GT...and maybe it's because of those "exceptions" you're talking about. [/QUOTE]
