Football dogma states that it takes a year or two for OL to be ready to play as starters. Lots of reasons are listed: they need to hit the weight room and get stronger; they have to put on more weight and add muscle; and the nuances of the OL, and the chemistry that must be developed, require time.
Only after they have jumped through all of those hoops, can a player be considered ready to be a starter.
But wait, what do we have here? Are early entrees Rocco Spindler and Blake Fisher being considered as possible starters in the OL after 10 Spring practices?
Great! BK finally woke up and smashed the OL dogma in favor of meritocracy. If they're good enough, they should play right away.
Oh, wait! What about QB? That's right, on Day 1, BK announced that it would be a PineCone QB competition in the Spring. Sorry, Tyler!
Spindler and Fisher weren't told not even to think about competing for a starting job because OL can't start right away, but Buchner was denied any chance from the very beginning.
That is inconsistent and unfair.
