Alabama has gained a reputation in NFL circles for not really developing OL talent since Pendry retired and Stoutland left. Cristobal was a downgrade but Key has been just as bad if not worse. We've been getting by because the S&C program turns these guys into freaks that most teams in America cannot handle regardless of technical mistakes and missteps. Look at Clemson...their OL is not that great talent-wise. Most of them are either moving on after college, becoming a backup in the pros for a few years, or maybe on the fringe of being an NFL starter for awhile. But they absolutely kicked our DL's ass when it counted because they used good technique and the offensive schemes protect them. When you've recruited like we have for the last decade, it shouldn't be a question what you do with 1st and goal inside the 5. The fact that our goal line offense has become about misdirection and feints is pretty concerning and a sign of just how bad it has gotten with the OL.
