When I said 2 years away I was referring to the fact that we need to get 2-3 RB's and several OL and need a little time to develope them. Right now the RB barn is empty and the OL barn needs more hay.

Here's my problem... I guess you can excuse the RB situation because of Ealey and King leaving early,
but to be honest I thought they were crap when they were here. We did go out and try and get IC, but
that was it. We signed one back with promise and nothing more. Still, I'll give them a pass because of the early departures (of our other malcontents and disappointments).

On the O-line side however... I'm not very forgiving. We've needed more hay and more horses in that barn for... well.. seemingly forever. We've needed that for forever, and now we hear "oh we need
a couple of more years here".

We're the only team really capable of being top tier in the SEC who puts together an apparent 6 year plan to be able to put together a formidable O-line.

Agree Wartdawg...I agree.....just saying, hopefully they will move forward and have learned a lesson. Recruiting the "high profiled skill positions" (I agree Buc that OL are very skilled) is where the focus has been in the past, hopefully they will realize if they want to go to the next level, they had better focus on OL and DL first. Past is past....learn from it and move forward is all I'm saying.

What I meant is the fact we squandered how many first half points?
You can't leave that many points on the table to a team like LSU.

"Past is past....learn from it and move forward is all I'm saying"

Fair enough.

We shall see

That two year plan has been on this board since I have been here.

Please let me rephrase my statement...

Once we realize and FILL our needs.....it could take up to two years to see the developement (RB's and OL).

So you stickin' with 2013, or ya bumpin it back to '14 or '15 before we have an O-line that's not
a liability?
