The plan is to redshirt all three freshmen. Should be nice for a change.

Re: Sell me on the O-Line
there's enough depth now that at the very least we can have an average line..
Whether this line can be great remains to be seen but players like Miller look to be a star..
Have to be always concerned with the injuries, especially with MTM who seems to be always hurt..

True, but he did pretty much kill Hawkins on that INT return.

However, you are a ****tard for remembering that moment. **** you. Ryan Miller is gonna rip off that assholes head and **** down his neck this year.
oh it was a great highlight, but more luck than anything else. Our Oline did good work. However, he did require 2 blockers, which really hurt our running game and limited us offensively.

I bet he was there to tell her how happy he is to be blocking for her son this year.

Not sure we need to "sell you" on anything. Show up on game day and see what happens.

Both of the guys knees are completely shot to hell. I wouldn't be surprised if he never plays football again.

Well ****, Dallas, if we all just waited for the games, we could pretty much shut down the Allbuffs football forum in the off-season.

Re: Sell me on the O-Line
Wally - That is a good point. I rarely post (I know, that is a blessing for this Board....)....I am to the point where I want the frickin season to start, and stop hypothesizing (if that is a word) on what we will produce on the field. Ten wins, baby...or, at least get some respect back to where it belongs.....

Re: Sell me on the O-Line
I think we're all rarin' to go. I'm not normally the speculative type, but I've heard so much about the o-line and I wanted to understand the hype a little more.
I will be there at the opening kickoff to see it in person. I'm hoping for big things.

Re: Sell me on the O-Line
CU's OL should be better this season with guys having more experience but how much better?
If solder and miller live up to the hype and behrens is healthy,that's 3 pretty good guys right there. Iltis and givens have been talked up a bunch also but this will be their first action. They'll be some growing pains at first getting them to gel but, if we can stay healthy, this team could probably be churning out 200 yds a game mid season on the ground.

Re: Sell me on the O-Line
The OL line is a group I'm not worried about. It is the group I'm most excited about watching. Personally I'm have no expectations for Tau and MTM. I have a little more intimate info on the Tau situation (no, I'm not expanding on it. I agree with Kyle Ringo that it a personal issue he needs to get behind him/over come) and I don't think MTM will be healthy enough and that's if he decides to not go on his mission.
That said, there is a ton of talent on the OL and I have expectations of this group being the maul you, knock you down, then throw a forearm in your chest while you are down type Oline. I think this OL will be the heart and soul of the team, and we are going to be very pleased by what we see on the field this season. I do expect some growing pains and some WTF moments, but nothing like we've seen in the last 4-5 seasons. If the Buffs are relatively healthy on the OL we'll have a very nice season.
Some one asked about long snapper earlier and that's Justin Drescher's spot, with Austin Bisnow backing him up. Not sure who is after them bbut I believe that one of the incoming freshmen is a long snapper too. (I want to say it was West)
Call me a full on OL koolaid drinker, best and most important unit on the team.

Re: Sell me on the O-Line
Are you seriously ****ing kidding me??????
These two quotes from his bio struck me as interesting, though....
Maybe he could start taking some of his own good advice????

Re: Sell me on the O-Line
There's something going on with Sione. The AD has kept this on the down low for a while now.

Re: Sell me on the O-Line
I would categorize a 325 pound loss as "huge".
Kyle had hinted on Scout that things might go south for Tau. Too bad that he's not getting it together. I remember being really excited for the Tau/Maiva acquisitions, and it seems to keep falling apart. Maybe he'll migrate to UCLA?

And the attrition continues.
I don't know Tau or his situation. Wish him the best and a speedy return in the spring. Hate to condemn him but I do shake my head based on his two year resume of decisions and consequences that have kept him from seeing the field. Starter or not, he would have likely appeared in every game and now depth takes a hit. Let's keep those three freshman redshirts on, PLEASE. i.e. no more of this from the O-Line, or preferably anyone on the team

I don't think it's grade related.
