[QUOTE="Eight, post: 2682733, member: 73370"] i agree that classes can get inflated by the skill positions which i think get overvalued and i don't think many of the "recruiting experts and services" truly know what they are doing in evaluating offensive and defensive linemen. it takes a great deal of ability to project where a player will be in a few seasons after spending time in a college weight program and under the tutelage of a quality position coach. i also think a big key in recruiting the classes is you have to bring in bodies each and every year. in regards to the rankings i would put the frogs in the top half of the o-lines and top third of the d-lines. part by number and i do think when you look at the line rankings it points out a few other things. andrew coker is rated as a 3-star and we know all the efforts made by texas to flip him. when he didn't texas focused later on hookfin. interestingly hookfin, who was basically an unknown at the start of the year in recruiting ends up a 4 star. marcus williams is supposedly the #144 rated offensive tackle prospect in the country according to 247. talking to two coaches i know who scouted longview multiple games the only offensive tackle they saw who they felt was better was the kid from oakridge. biggest thing to me is tcu filled needs in the offensive line and is addressing those needs in the d-line still [/QUOTE]
