Both IT & OTF seem to be talking up that UT is recruiting size at RB as part of the solution to fix the running game & redzone offense woes that UT has had these last couple seasons.

Both Max Wright & Kaden Scherer seem to fit the mold of big athletes you can put weight on, so I'm fine with both of them as developmental O-Line takes.
Having a secondary coach to properly pair up with P.K.'s fronts has been such a problem during Sark's tenure, that I'm now ready to give in & have Sark go ahead & hire Jimmy Lake as Secondary Coach after this season.
I haven't been keeping up with this current recruiting cycle because honestly the Transfer Portal makes H.S. recruiting less of a priority for me to follow.
Anyways, seeing how the "Big Humans" strategy at O-Line recruiting got exposed this season... have Sark/Flood started to shift their developmental O-Line recruiting towards recruiting big athletes that you can put weight on instead of Big Humans that need to lose weight & get into better athletic shape OR nah?
Watching UGA highlights this week & comparing the UGA O-Line to the UT O-Line, Sark/Flood should shift to this strategy ASAP if they haven't already.
Actually that isn't the only time. Sark's last & best season at UW in 2013, which lead to him being hired at USC, they went all in on a HUNH RPO spread offense:
I remember Ian Boyd did a whole write-up for SB Nation on the changes that UW made to their offense going into that season & on the results of the blowout season opener win vs. Boise St. But I can't find the article. Looks like all of Ian's SB Nation articles from before late September 2013 are gone.
This is what I'm sorta worried about. UGA & potential SEC title game & playoff opponents will be able to match Texas athlete-for-athlete, so it becomes more of a X&O's chess match. But seeing as the team couldn't execute what Sark wanted to run even against bad teams, continuing on with this simplified spread offense is a no-brainer.
Seeing how Surly is always hating on Ian Boyd because of his lack of on-camera charisma, I immediately thought of Surly when I saw this clip of IT is having him do live events now:
I'm pretty sure it was shotgun. It wouldn't have made sense to change the offense to go under center seeing as Arch was the back-up filling in for the injured starter.
Any old clips or articles of what the national 9.95ers thought of him as a H.S. recruit? Watching his ACC Freshman highlights from this past season, you can't tell what his ultimate ceiling is becuz of how bad & limited Stanford's QB & Offense is.
