Apparently we are in good position with a former Oregon commit who had several big time offers and now we’ve offered the Incarnate Word QB. Opposite ends of the spectrum.

Tanner Bailey is the former Oregon commit.  4 star QB, #23 on the incoming quarterback list.  He would be a decent get, but in terms of him being an Oregon commit he was the lowest rated quarterback by 247 that committed to Oregon during Mario Cristobal's tenure.  Little on the smaller size for a dropback QB, 6'1", 195 pounds.

edit:  247 rated Bailey 23rd, but his composite ranking for all services is higher at 14.

There’s no way to beat around the bush on this…Shaun Shivers is built like a brick s**thouse.

And that house is gonna still be getting hot 5 years behind the line because we cant block a 5th grade team.

How has this staff completely gone around the absolute worst unit in the conference? Not a single upgrade to be made at all? There seriously isn't a single offensive lineman to go after?

I see that LB Cameron Smith is bailing ship.  LEO?  Really.

Let things play out with the OL. They’ve talked to some and there will likely be many more enter the portal as their seasons end in the coming weeks. Moore and Smith could get some early time and there are some internal options as well. The OL will improve some based purely on Jones being out of eligibility.

It’s actually Cameron Williams and he hadn’t seen the field other than special teams and that wasn’t likely to change.

Season doesn’t start for over 8 months. Spring ball doesn’t start for about 4. Relax.

Yea it'll just get better because of time right? That's really worked the last few years.

Yes, that’s exactly what I said. Good lord man. You don’t think we’re going to recruit anyone on the OL between now and next season, let alone spring ball? Think a little bit.

Tom Allen has been coach for how long? And the OLine has gotten better from year to year when?
