I'm not worried about Ross's strength at this point, our staff has all of the needed tools to make that happen. This did get me thinking though and it's amazing how differently Iowa State is recruiting the o-line comparded to the prior staff. Below are the average weights of o-line recruits for CMC's first 2 classes and the 2018 class to date, as well as CPR's last 7 classes. We all knew that the prior staff put a huge emphasis on frame type/potential but it's pretty obvious that the current staff is recruiting both size and potential. I was never a fan of CPR's approach to the o-line and I would like to think that going after bigger guys who's bodies are used to carrying the weight will have a much higher success rate as far as development goes vs. smaller guys that are packing on both good and bad weight to get to a serviceable playing size.
