you think that? i dont know man. i was under the same impression untill the last two seasons. we dont get much love on our lines until late. im the only one that has had guys doing great and im a running team so that might have to do with it. i had two all acc guys and my best was a 94 my first two years. my guys are playing now and i had 3 first team all americans (two guards and C) and both tackles were all acc. the three aa's went pro early. this season i have the the best olineman in a center and my sophmore tackle and fresh tackle and fresh guard will be aa's this season. the only guy i didnt recruit was my other guard and he's a senior (89 overall) and he will be all acc. in the passing game i dont see much diffrence but running is another story.
as far as te's go you have to have a good blocking one. i won a nc with nc state in the tradition III running behind the good blocking tes. the freshmen they start with is the best blocking te in the game to start and he had 17 pancakes and no sacks. i never see anyone using tes to block in passing anyway but they do make a diffrence in running especially when running in shotgun.
i could be wrong but i have a good running game and now that i know your linemen need to be over 60 speed and have 90+ strength and im money in the run game. i recruit mostly 3 stars and let them develop. i also use guards at center and they need to be fast. tackles can be slower since they rarely go to the second level. the guards and center need to get to the next level as do the te's.
i do 100% agree with the passing game and not seeing much diffrence with anyone. also most of the guys pass alot and mostly have 4 or 5 pancakes and like 8 sacks a year. this makes me believe that my 15 to 20 pancakes a player a season are coming from run plays. also bigger is better for passing. i had a center and two guards last year and the smallest one was 6 foot 4 and 330. the biggest was 6 foot 8 360. i didnt see a blitz get through up the middle all year. lol, what a log jam those guys were. it could be that no one sees blitzs up the middle with the lame pass rush.
you should check out ncaa stratagies also as i have found about 10 blitzs that work automatic for getting pressure. mostly coming from s's. pretty cool. they have videos and chalkboard with all the audibles.
