[QUOTE="cuttysark, post: 60427, member: 1578"] For reasons that cannot be explained other than medically, GT has had more o-linemen depart early than any other program in college football. Chase Roberts took a tremendous hit at Clemson and I'm glad to see that he will stay at Tech and get his degree. However, last season when the team reported in August our backup center Caitlan Alford lost his desire to play football and left the program. That was compounded by an injury to the third team center Freddie Burden shortly thereafter. Morgan Bailey finally called it a career and is also unable to play due to injuries, and those are just the recent players. All of which has thwarted any continuity in the offensive line play year after year. Hopefully this group can stay healthy and hungry to play football as all of these departures impact the depth and development which in turn causes disruptions in the continuity of the play in the trenches. Not to mention huge holes in recruiting classes. Tech does have a transfer from Maryland and another from SMU to help lessen those losses, but this trend needs to end if the offense is going to have consistent success regardless of who lines up at the skill positions. My $.02. [/QUOTE]
