Last year the OL performed average at best. Q. Judkins actually made that unit look a lot better than they truly performed. This past year, I believe it would be safe to say that the OL production was in likelihood what prevented Ole Miss from having the season we had all hoped.
Today we find that one of the most promising OL prospects that Ole Miss signed from the high school ranks is leaving the program. There is a major problem with the Ole MIss programs ability to develop and improve OLmen. Pettus was a big guy, but can we really say that his skill and technique improved during his years at Ole Miss? What good does it do for us to recruit talented high school OLmen if we can't develop them enough to see the field?
