[QUOTE="Dbell1981, post: 1657740, member: 609432"] I think everyone needs to realize that with all the experience we have on the line they are still only 2 games in to a completely new scheme and are most likely asked to do something counter to what they have learned for the last 2 years under the previous O-Line coach. We don't have the road graders that they had at Wisky YET. McClain wanted quick/agile linemen that could get upfield on screens and such. These boys are being asked to do things much differently than the last few years. There will be a learning curve. The big run Epstein had last week was right off tackle then he bounced it outside for 44 big yards. I find it hilarious that some people expect our o-line to block like Bama just because they have a little experience. Gonna take some time fellas but we will get there. Let's revisit this conversation 4 years from now when coach Millers recruits are Juniors and in Tanks weight program for 3+ years. [/QUOTE]
