There are a lot of positives to the MikeMac regime, but OL is not one of them. While the loss of these two doesn't mean much for this year and maybe beyond, I still don't understand why we can't recruit OL. See below. 15 scholarship lineman, 11 who have never played a game for CU. That is ridiculous.

From camera article: T"he departures of Middlemiss and Polley leave CU with 83 players on scholarship, two below the NCAA maximum. It also reduces the Buffs to 15 offensive linemen on scholarship, 11 of which have never played in a game for CU."
 
Polley was a guy I was hoping would get some playing time this year.

So if I understand this right, they are actually pulling the scholarships from these two. Does that seem odd to anybody else?

Some of those 11 include the highest rated linemen Mac has pulled.
 
Hope all is well w the 2 young men.

And I share the OL frustrations...we are left w the typical CU refrain of “next year” for the OL.
