We seem to always go after top running backs which is good. Our coaches need linemen, and good ones. Fill those weak areas with quality players.

What happened with OG Jamal Danley who was said to be one of the top JUCO linemen last year ? I have seen him playing, but late in games.
The offensive line needs a quick infusion of two quality offensive linemen and a successful haul of top high schoolers in the 2016 class. Hopefully, OU's best linemen are being redshirted right now....Evans and Hearne. Samia has played. Maybe he can become a solid contributor soon.
Without an offensive line, OU's 2015 season now teeters on another 5-loss season...very easily. In the Big 12, the best defense is having a great offense to keep opponents' offenses on the bench. Without a good OL, both OU's offense and defense are negatively impacted. Case in point....yesterday's game.

Agree, we always here and see players recruited, are we NOT actually getting good linemen. We need a Loadholt, who was a great offensive tackle.

So were Ikard, Trent Williams, Irwin, Lane Johnson, Thompson, Daryl Williams, Shead, Savage and Evans (before he got hurt). Why the sudden drop off ? The cupboard is empty right now.

RIGHT ON MAN. What we saw yesterday, is that all there is?

Winning conference championships and playing for national championships would go a long way in getting the better players. Also, when they get on campus, developing them would be great too. I wonder what Joe Mixon is thinking this morning. Maybe I'm wrong but I think Brooks played as much as Joe yesterday,

100 percent correct. We need to try and hang on the rest of the season. Our linemen need some development, they need it bad. I feel bad for Perine.
