Wyatt Teller and Christian Darrisaw both developed under Fuente.

And the blocking you describe has been going on for years and isn't new.

The OLs when we had 4 and 5 star talent in the backfield a decade ago was bad. I would love to have seen Ryan Williams behind some of our more resent lines and with a better run scheme.

There is a lot to rip about the Fuente regime, but OL play isn't one of them.

And could use more Ben Taylors on defense! ** -- FlossEmVT 11/08/2021 10:19AM

The offense is inept. The defense doesn't tackle well. -- Pride_and_Joy 11/08/2021 10:08AM

It's a talent issue -- culpmania 11/08/2021 11:51AM

But, but ... everyone on TSL was busting on Hoffman last season -- 1980VT 11/08/2021 10:06AM

The key is that Grove was a really good player, Dax/Hoffman are not good ** -- BROman Hokie 11/08/2021 11:11AM

It has, line play has been much better than under CFB, especially Searles -- soflahokie 11/08/2021 11:04AM

No, not really. Due to rules and way refs call it, we are softer -- 1980VT 11/08/2021 10:12AM

Our QBs aren't getting hit 3 seconds after the snap every single play... -- EDGEMAN 11/08/2021 10:54AM

You think Bama, UGA, etc.. use the same blocking methods we do? -- OldRetiredHokie 11/08/2021 10:27AM

They run a power running game not as much finesse that we do -- 1980VT 11/08/2021 11:00AM

That's what I thought.. thanks ** -- OldRetiredHokie 11/08/2021 11:02AM
