5 OL who have now started 25 straight games together. To not have an injury to a starting OL in 2 years is good fortune, but also, "talent around Lock".
They have 3 studs in Cook, Borom & White ready to step in next year on the OL as well.
The staff plucked Albert O. from nowhere then switched Daniel Parker to TE this year-both genius gets/moves. Add M. Swinson, Scales & Christopherson and TE looks to be extremely strong for years.
Added 3 freshmen WR to the offense. Big play guys-Knox, Scott, Gicinto. Remember they lost Nate Brown and R. Floyd to injuries this year, plus Hall missed almost half the season. Injuries not coaches fault-but again, this receiver corps was more "talent around Lock".
Lock would have been toast without a running game. Crockett was ignored by Arkansas, Rountree was lightly recruited, and both Bakare & Badie as freshmen looked fantastic @ RB.
Um...still trying to decipher the "no talent around Lock" myth. P.S. Lock is at BEST, the 3rd best QB in the SEC....
