* Of Nelson and Clark, who were thrust in to the starting lineup as true freshmen and go up against older players in games, Feeley said, “I don’t think they’re physically disadvantaged at all.”
If that's the case, I would love to know what the problem is b/c I see our OL getting manhandled and defensive players run around our tackles on nearly every play. It looks like some athleticism, speed and footwork when Nelson struggles to get out to the rushing end quick enough! I just don't know how someone could say that we don't have physical disadvantages against older opposing players. That's ludicrous. There is a huge difference in strength between and 18-19 year old and a 21-22 or 23 year old!
