We are certainly recruiting some beef. The OL recruits are the best OL recruits I can ever remember. For this reason I'm hopeful for the future.

I haven't really tracked the recruits that much this year. Definitely not calling you out or anything but I'm curious as to the criteria you are using to evaluate the recruits? Offers from other schools? Size? Watched video?

Again, not trying to be argumentative; I just haven't paid that close of attention and was wondering what was driving the optimism about them?

You can throw Wallace and K. Jackson into the group of commits. I base it off of offers, video, stars and mostly size. They are massive. There will be no more starting OLs who are under 300 lb in the future. With our offense the OL needs to be able to manhandle. You need size to manhandle. A lot of people say that football is won in the trenches and I believe this 100%. Good OLs want to play in an offense like ours.

I was just curious because linemen have been a problem for a looooong time at WYO. I remember Glenn filling recruiting classes with big kids in an effort to correct it.

Bohl's success will hinge on his or his staff's ability to identify linemen that can play.
