I wasn't quite sold on Tate, but this line makes me think he ha's the necessary skill's for succes's:

7) Ability to throw with left handed just as good as many in the 2009 class can pass with their right.

*All comments talk about the object of ridicule

lets not forget that a great qb...

24. Will always see who he is throwing to.
40. Does not put himself into difficult situatinos.
47. Will studdy film of opponent's defense.

Compensating for something small

Just cannot see Seantrel going to a school thats blocking schemes will not prepare him for the NFL. It'd be like Randy Moss committing to Navy.

What the [heck] are you blabbering about?

The zone-block scheme that Rich implements at Michigan is pretty much the same that a bunch of NFL teams have been using for 20+ some years.

The zone-block scheme doesn't work in the NFL? Tell that to the Denver Broncos, a team that seems to produce 1,000 yard rushers out of thin air.

he's probably the fastest kid in all of the midwest. I'm all for offering kids like this provided they have football speed as well. I hope this kid isn't another Morgan Trent. Trent was a decent player by the time he was a senior, but he went through a lot of growing pains on the way.

Look at Rich's NFL lineman history. When you find it, let me know.

the criticism is not that they don't run zone blocking schemes in the NFL, it is that Rich Rodriguez's scheme doesn't prepare lineman for the NFL,
exactly one lineman was drafted from West Virginia while Rodriguez was coaching there, that isn't even close to a history of successful development

I'm not entirely sure if that means that DRod doesn't develop his OLine talent well enough to get them to the NFL. I think there's a decent argument that he simply tends to recruit smaller, less NFL-caliber linemen because that type of lineman is better for his offense. It doesn't really matter who the coach is, Henderson is getting to the NFL and at an early pick unless someone does something seriously wrong.

That being said, it wouldn't hurt him to join a team with more of a traditional O Line.
