Can Florida Gators offensive line be a strength in 2016?

Jim McElwain inherited a mess along the offensive line. One can only imagine what McElwain’s reaction was when the ink dried on his contract and he opened up a roster to reveal that he didn’t even have enough offensive linemen for a five on five game of pickup basketball.

Say what you will about Treon Harris’ run as the Florida Gators starting quarterback, and fans had plenty to say, the offensive line didn’t do him many favors in 2015. Florida gave up a SEC high 45 sacks a year ago and struggled throughout the season to get a push, change the line of scrimmage, or provide a comfortable pocket for their quarterback.
