That decision is arguably not on the school/coaching staff. I truly think that his presence would materially affect the OL, which would have opened up both the passing game and the running game, and kept TD healthier. COVID may have affeted us more than other schools, as due to our talent, there is more of a drop off between starters and underclass backups. We can't reload. That gap is on the coaching staff, so no dodging of blame there, but it does give fan expectations a little room. [/QUOTE]
