It’s no secret that Sam Pittman arrived in Athens in 2016 with a commission to make the Georgia offensive front tougher, deeper, and bigger. While toughness remains hard to measure, bigness we can track.
And if sheer size is the measure of Pittman’s success, the Bulldog offensive line coach is headed for the Hall of Fame. A look at Georgia’s recently released 2018 roster renders the following eye-popping observations:
Georgia’s scholarship offensive linemen average 321.75 pounds apiece. That’s the largest offensive line in Bulldog history, as best I can tell.
If the Dawgs’ starting lineup is center Lamont Gaillard (308), guards Ben Cleveland (335) and Kendall Baker (305), and tackles Andrew Thomas (320) and Isaiah Wilson (340), the Great Wall of Georgia would clock in at an average of 321.
