He has been accurate all year, now he isn't Sam Bradford accurate, but our line can't touch Oklahoma's line either. People forget a big part of the reason Boeckman lost his job is because we couldn't protect him, he would be like Carson Palmer playing for the Chiefs. Boeckman was a statue back there, Pryor can make plays, yes he is un-polised, but saying he can't or shouldn't play QB is silly.

The line looked decent last night. Better than at other times this season. Pryor has a lot to learn in regards to the passing game. He's only a true freshman, give him time. Boeckman lost his job because when our make shift line did allow pressure, he'd either get sacked and fumble, or throw an interception (Maulauga). According to Rivals/Scout, we do have talent on the O-Line, but they always seen to under perform. Perhaps it is poor coaching.

I sad pretty much everything you just said in the other thread about the Bucks. Our offensive line is not good, it may look good on paper, but they have been very mediocre all year. Brewster is only a RSF, I think he is the next Nick Mangold. Bryant Browning is not good, and I can't wait to see him go, he can take his 5 false starts a game with him. Boone has under performed all year, everyone expect a lot out of him but he didn't deliver IMO. Rehring has battled injuries all year, he is huge but doesn't really play with an attitude like you would want. Jim Cordle is fundamental, but get's over powered against the better and bigger DT's.

Brewer (#1 Center in 2008), Shugarts (#7 OT in 2008) , Adams (#2 OT in 2008), Smith (#4 OL in 2006), Hall (#2 OT in 2009. Hasn't signed yet. Are favorite), Linsley (#10 OG in 2009), Mewhort (#13 OT in 2009) and finally, Michigan transfer Boren (#7 OL in 2006). They have a pretty solid line, on paper that is. I think it is a coaching issue.

I know all of our recruits, I'm talking about our starting line right now, I think you mean Brewster not Brewer, right? Brewster,Shugarts, and Adams made us the #1 recruit class, along with Pryor of course, last year.

. Yes, I need to go through my posts before submitting. I think our future looks bright along the line, we just need to make sure they get proper coaching.
