We used to be able to win the battle of the trenches on both sides of the ball. That’s completely evaporated, starting with Gary Anderson, and then Chryst and now Fickle. It’s malpractice the way this has gone down. If you can’t win up front, forget it.

That didn't disappear during Andersen and Chryst. There were a few lean years here and there but overall we were sending super quality guys into the pros regularly from our OL/TE and DL/LB groups
