Just to make sure everyone understands the situation

Lebby: “Body-type wise, we're where we want to be. But again, we have a ton of work to do. These guys understanding how we practice, how we do what we do, the physicality that we have to play with to give us an opportunity to win. Those are real things and they haven't been with us. Excited about that group and the potential, but we have to come together in a hurry, make sure we're dialed in on the best five, six or seven that can play winning football for us.“

It’s August 1 and the O-line needs to come together “in a hurry” …. awesome. We have 3 damn weeks of practice and then it’s game week.

Everyone who watched State football knows the situation.

We brought in several OL after spring practice that will play. How could there be any expectation that they had already come together?

 

[Shmuley]

I'm still confident in my sunshine-pumping prediction of 4-8, 2 moral victories and year 3.

You negative nellies will not be successful in reducing my fervor in this regard.

 

[QuadrupleOption]

I'm just glad we have such an easy schedule this year, you know?

We are back baby, just look at this quote from todays paper. We're STRAINING again!

That’s the point - the situation is not great.

That's a sure sign. Do we have a tiny RB to hit the hole?

Show me the cargo pants, baby.

Or even will come together by mid season.

I remember Florida doing this a few years ago. I didn't realize we'd accomplished the same feat. But, it doesn't surprise me.

Over/under how many plays where both guards pull in opposite directions? Set it at 1.5.

Relentless STRAIN!

Intentional Strain is the new buzz phrase!

That's what she says.

I don’t GAF if our AD goes to Norman. This is the kind of hire that follows you forever. Which tells me our AD ain’t going to Norman.

Easy over

That happened under Arnette and Barbay not under Lebby

It’s not Lebby as much as talent. We are a 1a school playing in 7a

Maybe they'll come together quickly. We need them to do enough to keep Shapen healthy. Running backs are good, they just need enough to be effective.

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Sounds like... We look good on paper, and physically, but we barely know half their names.
Pray for us.

 

[Dawgg]

The swaggiest swag that ever swagged a swag.

 

[msstatelp1]

It’s all coach speak. What’s he supposed to say?

 

[Tigr2ndbase]

That's what she says.

Calm down Xander.

Are you surprised by this?

It's all part of the plan. If we don't know where tha 17 we're going, neither will the defense.

 

[Lucifer Morningstar]

In the words of wrestling insiders, “water’s getting cold”.

 

[22yardpunt]

It’s still the situation - we have an offensive line that hasn’t play together before and need to come together quickly. That’s not good. I would rather hear “this group has been through war together plenty so we’re expecting big things from the unit.” See the difference?

 

[TaleofTwoDogs]

This reminds me of last year's line..........

USM has over 80 new players and new everything, they've got it worse than us. We return enough guys to know what to do. This is college football unless you're a blue blood.
