    Coach Miles on his O-line, "I think we'll be a dominant offensive line without question."

    straight from the horse's mouth:

    "I was getting mixed emotions on it. A lot of teams liked me at guard. As of now, I'm a tackle." -La'El Collins

    Throw me some wisdom here. What is the big difference? Is it just that tackles have to face speed rush so they need the quick feet where as guards can be a little bigger and slightly less mobile?

    I rarely watch high school football games but seems like only yesterday that I made a point to tune in to the Kenny Hilliard and La'el Collins game against Jeremy Hill. This week make me think back to that game.

    Me too. He was a really good guard. The NFL likes the outside leverage from those tall tackles.
