"In my opinion, other than Parker Brailsford, the other four offensive linemen are over weight"

"Kayden has some great reps, but there are also five to six plays a game that it is so clear and obvious, he's playing over weight"

In the video you'll see we do some good things, but there are problems with our offensive line, one being weight and as you watch, the other being a lot of bad technique.

Got to be lineman coaching changes soon.

Not only are we not getting top recruits, the ones we get underperform.
The sad thing is, as I've watched this all the way through, it is very alarming how many of our Oliemen get beat and how often they get beat. It's not just one guy, it's the majority of them. Brailsford is hands down our best guy on the line and it's not even close.

And also, the video shows Wisconsin DIDN'T LOAD THE BOX the entire game. They actually did the opposite and we still couldn't run the ball.

I keep hearing the announcers talk about the left tackle being a top draft pick, I don't see it. I have never played organized football but I could get by him and get the QB. With our O-line's play so far this year, I'm afraid this game is going to be just like the Florida State game. I hope I'm wrong and they get it together.

Saban wanted to go big on the OL and we are still playing with Saban recruits on the OL as starters...

That didn't register with me at all. This is their weight:
I'm not sure if it's right.
Proctor is 366lbs
Robers-327lbs
Fromby-324lbs
Brailsford 290lbs
Dewberry-332lbs
VanDeMark 326lbs

That caught me off guard.

The car is heavy and somewhat underpowered, I tend to agree with the film guy.

Since hes making his assessment of their weight by watching film. "Theyre overweight " is probably coming from him seeing how slow to the point of contact they many times are and how DL'men frequently beat them off the snap. But if you watch the video its obvious they are slow and get beat a lot. Call it "overweight" or whatever, but the end result is the same. Its bad Oline play.

Okay now I get it.

He probably is, which is what’s so frustrating. The staff doesn’t have him where he needs to be, which is about 50 lbs lighter.

I like him (the film guy) for the most part. His film study of Wommack is pretty bleak but accurate

I wish we could’ve moved proctor to rt and paid some legit Lt whatever it took like Texas Tech
