And if they have that many more starts with the same number of years in the program, what does that tell you about whether or not they were starting in previous years - when they had less time in the program?

Well, to me, it's a spot light on why we were able to be competitive with them the last couple of years.  Them being better at developing the talent over that span of time, gave us the beat down we took from their O line in the second half this year.

Fair enough.

It also shows that they were able to be more successful than us - including beating us - while starting OLinemen younger than what we are currently starting.

So I don't see that the age or years in the program has much bearing on how successful you can be.
