Thinking Out Loud: Should We Try For A Stacked Group?

While watching the Marshall Thundering Herd play the Eastern Kentucky Colonels in the opening weekend of college football, the announcer made a remark that made pause - the Thundering Herd had five senior offensive linemen. This made me wonder, should the Mountaineers ever try to stack their offense? By this I mean, should the Mountaineers start a group of players as freshmen and grow with them and take the lumps that come with freshman starters to try and have a group that in three years has years of starting experience together and has played together for multiple years.
