I liked last year when they move Akheem around the line in many positions.

I like the thought of moving OL players around teaching them multiple OL positions.

When they used Mesidor as a
Part Time Rush MLB - that was as innovative move by any West Virginia staff almost
~~ 20 years.

On Defense, Particularly.

At this level when a coach starts moving OL around to find the right combination it really means we're in big trouble.

They're not doing it to find the right combination. Neal likes his linemen to know all positions and it's one way to form a deeper depth.

Then we will have a poor line...again. OL play is about strength...technique...and repetition. Moving everybody around constantly doesn't do much for technique or repetition.

Wouldn't know a football if it hit you in the head.
