I thought I had heard every excuse for the O line

I guess he missed alot of games the last few years.....I just cant believe that they don't use a sled in practice! I think there needs to be a new philosophy regarding the offense and I have to say my opinion is they need to bring in a offensive coordinator and give Bollman his walking papers, I was always taught you play like you practice and to not use a sled, which is very important in developing fundamentals is just plain stupid. How can you teach a group of lineman to fire off the ball in unison and with authority.....I am at a loss for words right now.....someone needs to explain the philosophy behind not using the sleds.....there needs to be a change on the staff regarding the O line and offense.

We already have a VERY capable coach of offensive linemen on this staff.
Just his name isnt Bollman, and he has no responsibilities in our offensive line.
Think Miami of Ohio, and think recruiter...

Zone blocking is a good thing, but you still need the technique that you work on with the sled. |

This just makes me believe that Bollman does absolutely nothing for this program. He doesn't call the plays he obviously doesn't coach the o-line. So what does he do for this team? I think Tressel just has him around so he has somebody who is a yes man to what ever he wants to do on offense. I think we need an O coordinator that will challenge Tressel's play calling and we need an actual o-line coach.

Hell lets get real crazy and switch it up.. a team would freak out if we actuall came out and punched them in the mouth....do that for a while get DL to stop shooting the gaps then bam hit them with the zone. Hell there might be a hole that head to the ground Lydell could see...
UNREAL!!!

I'm one big homer for sure, but after watching inferior team talent move the ball on our above average D, I firmly believe Tressel's offensive (pun intended) run game needs an overwhelming return to power run basics. One had to be blind not to note how vigorous the NW charge was by their OL...in to our D 3 feet before their RB hit the gap. Much of the evening, our OL appeared lethargic and out-manned. I can't believe these major needed adjustments aren't a subject of arguements at film breakdowns.
To think we have a stable of swift, heavy RBs and FBs that can't gain 2 to 3 yards on demand is amazing. An apparent problem has now blossomed into a laughable spectacle.
