Why is it that the offensive line is never right? They had concrete feet last year, now they have no depth. It’s always something.
When you’re essentially guaranteed $90+ million for surviving the next 9 years, it’s professionally expedient to quickly identify sacrificial scapegoats.

Will the Bombay Princess concur? 🤷🏼‍♂

It’s only money. 💰

SO good to be back with you all! When Bob's serious-you know it's the truth. Finger's are crossed for some nice o-line progress this year and I will expect just that until proven otherwise. Im ready for Traut to do his thing.

Nah, same ****, new year. No run game, no pass protection. 7-6, rinse repeat. See, I saved you all some time, no need to watch this year. It’s the same episode of Laverne and Shirley over and over again every year.

See you at the game. Look forward to hearing your thoughts next Sunday.

Who needs excuses when you have a guaranteed contract? Don't like it? Pay up and he leaves!

Agree. I assume it has to be injuries. Are they being overly protective?
In TFrank and Nate discussion they were talking about 6 or 7 OL. They have 11 scholarship players, and there were 4 walk on players in fall who could be playing in the spring. That would give us 15, and 14 if you take out Wormley due to injury. Apparently, none of the walk on players stayed with the team. That still should leave us 10 OL left. Do we have other OL guys out for some reason? In some of the videos of practice it does look like there are a full complement of OL in full dress going though the drills.

going forward, it would be nice for the PSU NIL to invest a little in walk on OL players. Since NIL $$$ does not count toward scholarships, technically Success With Honor could just offer any OL tuition coverage.

Why not just do half line drills for the runs( and full pass offense)
Blue right side runs
White left side runs

This screams offense vs defense. 20 plays equals a quarter. Set up scoring for both. Punt drill after 1 and 3q. Kickoff after 2q.
