You recruit a 6’9 he is gonna have cinder block feet. Perhaps he made it worse. But he didn’t recruit a guy with a short wingspan. Also didn’t make him have the 5,000 false start penalties like he had last year either. It’s hard to tell if he just doesn’t care or if he is really that bad.

When you are 6'9" what is a short wingspan, 6'6"?

 

From his 247 profile:

 

Has nimble feet in moving to the second level and is adequately flexible with the ability to sink his hips on contact. State champion wrestler who has a natural sense of balance, particularly for a prospect of his height. Shows good reactive quickness in mirroring smaller defensive linemen.

Coached against him in high school. Good athlete for his size and did well, but he moves about the same as he did in high school...nimble is not a word I would use to describe him, but I am not a recruiting analyst.

Sherman touched on this in his article today, so I went and looked at our OL recruiting under Frost/Austin.  Four recruiting classes have only produced 3 starters.   And we are now starting 3 super seniors.  Could you imagine how bad it would be w/o the Covid rules?

 

With Teddy's injury, our starting OL is:

possibly the worst RT in the B1G

super senior from the Riley years

super senior walk-on from the Riley years

transfer super senior who played in 2 games between 2020 and 2021

#4 OT recruit that is better suited at OG

 

2018

Will Farniok .8581 #15 C - Transferred to Tulsa

Willie Canty .8526 #91 OT - Never made it to campus

 

2019

Bryce Benhart .9349 #13 OT - Feet turned into cinder blocks

Desmond Bland .8871 #1 OG JUCO - Never made it to campus

Michael Lynn .8614 #67 OT - Never played

Brant Banks .8613 #68 OT - Barely played

Matthew Anderson .8572 #77 OT - Transferred to Campbell

Ethan Piper .8410 #90 DT - Played as a FR and SO, can't see the field anymore

Jimmy Fritzche .8310 #146 OT - Transfer portaled to ???

 

2020

Turner Cocoran .9748 #4 OT - 8th highest ranked recruit since 2000, can't play tackle at all

Alex Conn .8647 #55 OT - Hasn't seen the field

 

2021

Teddy Prochazka .9105 #18 OT - Started as a TFr, injury prone?

Henry Lutovsky .8809 #32 G - Backup as a RFr

Branson Yager .8566 #83 OT - Left after 1 semester, whereabouts unknown

I always liked the old WWF days when some really off-the-wall wrestlers would be announced as being from "parts unknown".  My favorite guys from "parts unknown" were the Moondogs, Rex and King.

when they would announce the intro for the Super Destroyer (he wore a mask) they would indicate he was from "parts unknown" and also "weight unknown" .  After the intro Jesse "the body" Ventura remarked, "Strange place that parts unknown.  Everyone wears a mask and there isn't a scale in the whole town"

[BigRedBuster]

This has to be an example of the left guard not blocking the right guy.  You have the choice between two players.  One is coming towards the hole, the other isn't.  Block the first guy you see.

 

 

[BigRedBuster]

I just never understand it when you see a blocker pass up someone to go block someone farther away from the play....when they should know the play well enough to know there isn't another blocker coming through the hole to pick that guy up.  Block the guy closest to the play first.  Seems like such a simple concept.

[AlaSker]

I might catch some flak for this but, Corcoran held up his draw assignment- sell pass- by blocking the 2/3technique in the A gap. Then he ran to the unblocked guy he saw. Was it wrong? Maybe? Did he put effort in on the play, absolutely.

 

it is also possible the OLB for OK, read the play and made a strong play? 
 

 

 

I am not fighting the OLINE needs to be better feeling. But this play isn’t the one we should be pointing at.
