This has nothing to do with Mike, but guilty as charged with regard to Bollman.

Well, you did say you thought it was a basic requirement.

Gotcha. Well, I guess that means our coaches were several years ahead of those boys up north, who seemingly just discovered the zone blocking schemes last season. Just one more reason why potential line recruits should come here and not there.

Has the OL really been a strong point of the team though? Maybe it's scheme, but our OL's seem to be less than the sum of their parts. They certainly didn't have a banner performance in the NC game.

He has the O-L take a step opposite to the direction the are going to go, then come back into the direction needed. It gives the OL leverage both from a balance and a force perspective. This is a fairly common technique. It fails when the line does not all move at once and causes the RB to take extra steps comming to the line.

ah the good old shade technique

Is this the time for the obligatory: "Trust the coaches on this one!"?
But, has Bolman gotten better? Maybe?
Or has the talent? Probably.
And what influence has Peterson on this whole thing? Some?
