I believe Tech's offense has the skill positions in place for the next few years to be very, very good. However, imo, it all starts with the O line. We lose (or for some of you, loose) too many kids off the line in the next year or two, replacing them with redshirt freshmen or true sops for the most part. I feel pretty good about this past recruiting class, but we have all seen what can happen to good classes. How many potential studs have we had who had to give up the game for one reason or another, or got homesick, or screwed up in some way or got injured or whatever?
I know that other programs

Going forward, I hope that this staff will go heavy on the O linemen (and D linemen for that matter). Otherwise, it doesn't matter what great studs we have in the skill positions if they get blown up before the play takes shape.
