Wow--so we had an offensive line unit that you acknowledge wasn't great but "solid" "certainly" back 12 years ago in 2003/2004.  I stand corrected.  :crazy::crazy::crazy::crazy::crazy:

Spare me the pedantic attempt to spin my post--good lord, if that's what you're clinging to, then you really are digging yourself a straw man hole.  I'm not going to get dragged into an asinine argument about how good the OL with Blake Bednarz was 29 years ago--OL has been a mess here for a long time, and we haven't had much talent there as evidenced by the infinitesimally small number of them we've had selected in the NFL draft. That data doesn't lie, and explains the struggles we've seen on the field most years at OL--especially the since 2000, but dating back even before then.  And as I've painstakingly pointed out to you, a couple of one-off examples across multiple decades doesn't alter that FACT, no matter how much you'd like to rationalize otherwise.

Anomander's post above was spot on.  Judging from the responses to our respective posts, everybody except for you seems to recognize that yes, we've failed to get solid OL in this program with any consistency over the years.
