Evaluating The 2012 Texas Longhorns Recruiting Class: Offensive Line
Searels has us back on track and honoring all of my pet OL theories. OL make excellent pets. Assuming you can deal with carrying Hefty poop bags at the dog park. Why do I like this group? Quality. This OL class breaks tendency to take 2 guys per year that won't challenge the offensive staff's...
The Harsin Offense: Making Complexity a Single-edged Sword
We've heard a lot in the practice reports about how Harsin's strategies include installing a large variety of formations and looks that put too much on tape for opposing coordinators to be able to prepare for in a game week. Belichick uses this practice at New England on a regular basis and loves...
Steve Addazio – New Texas OL Coach According to Orangebloods
Orangebloods is reporting that Steve Addazio is the new OL coach for Texas. Florida fans are generally very positive on Addazio as a position coach and recruiter, but considered him a major bust as a coordinator and play caller. Perhaps he is their Duane Akina? He has coached a lot of football,...
Offensive Line Coach Posting
This seemingly straightforward posting also has some interesting verbiage that we can all read far too much into to support various wildly wrong theories. The Internet is fun. Am I the only person who sees hints of running game coordinator, not just OL coach? Required: - Assist in the planning...
Finding Identity
Thesis: Last year's Alabama team did not have an offense that struck fear into the hearts of Texas fans. Apart from the OSU games the previous season there were few examples on tape of a team pounding the ball against Muschamp's crew with any meaningful success. In the actual title game, with a few...
All about the big men
Basketball: I was relieved to see Texas at least protect home court on Wednesday night while continuing to show developing play since the Kansas debacle. Again, until we see this teem demonstrate the same ball-movement and defense on the road the improvement is inconclusive. I had a feeling of...

Looking ahead to 2012 Husker Football: Offensive Line
Suffice it to say Barney Cotton has faced a lot of criticism in recent years for the performance of the offensive line. Some of that has been depth, some of that, a lack of emphasis. So this season, John Garrison was promoted to a full-time offensive line assistant coach while Brendan Stai became...
Indiana Hoosiers Depth Chart: Offensive Line
For as long as I can remember (which isn’t long) Indiana’s offensive line has been a cobbling together of the haves and have nots. IU has recent offensive line standouts turned professionals in Roger Saffold and James Brewer, but in their years with Indiana football there was still some...
Better Know a Freshman: La'el Collins - Mr. Homegrown
La'el Collins is the perfect recruit. No, really. What is not to love about a prototypical left tackle with glowing reviews regarding his effort (he plays on both sides of the ball!), who grew up in the shadows of Tiger Stadium, pledged to LSU a year in advance and stuck to his commitment,...
