He has vastly improved and the coaches, players, GM seem to really like him as does his fellow teamate at OU, AD. Of course leave it to some people to find negative things to say about him :rofl: This was a great signing :smilevike:

There was an offensive lineman from my hometown who played with the Rams, can't recall his name, but he played a few years with some at an all pro caliber. He bought lots and lots of farmland around the home area and is doing VERY well. Can't recall his name, though. But most of us would recognize him.

Loadholt is very often there at the end of a long run... I know I am impressed that he is because he is so big. I know I've seen it.
Precisely, perhaps the ability to maul is overrated due to his mammoth size but to also hold the athleticism to get out in front on tosses/screens is a rare ability. I think he's a great tackle who's come on leaps and bounds and I look forward to his production in purple for many years to come.
