\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMiami Hurricanes veteran offensive lineman Ryan Roderguiez spoke with the media, reflecting on fall practice and more. Check out everything he had to say down below:<\/p>\n
On freshman offensive lineman Ben Congdon: He\u2019s continuing to grow. [He] and Jackson [Cantwell] are continuing to grow. They\u2019re learning our system. They\u2019re learning how we do things, our standard, and they\u2019re just falling right into place. They\u2019re always excited to learn. They\u2019re eager to learn. They\u2019re great students of the game and I\u2019m excited to see them develop.<\/p>\n
On the offensive line developing: Everybody’s developing, building chemistry together. Today is actually SJ’s birthday, so happy birthday to SJ. Jackson’s getting a lot better. Ben’s getting a lot better. Max is getting a lot better. Everybody’s just competing, getting better, and those guys are all pushing each other and getting better.<\/p>\n
On the value of cross training on the offensive line: One of the best ways to learn all the positions on the offensive line is just play them all. If you\u2019re only a left tackle and you only know what the left tackle does, if for whatever reason Coach might need to throw you in at right tackle, well now you\u2019re not going to know what to do because you only know the left side. It\u2019s best to know what everybody at every position is doing and having that knowledge will give you a better understanding of the offense as a whole because then you\u2019ll know what the guy next to you has and what his responsibility is and how he might play that play and use the technique on that play. It just builds chemistry together.<\/p>\n
On how he felt the offensive line performed in last week\u2019s scrimmage: We definitely have a lot of work to continue to do. We\u2019re holding ourselves to a high standard, all the great o-lines before us. We just want to continue that trajectory and we\u2019re holding ourselves to that high standard and we\u2019re going to work hard and whatever happened in the scrimmage was good, bad, indifferent. [We have to] continue working. It\u2019s just another practice, another day to get better.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Miami Hurricanes veteran offensive lineman Ryan Roderguiez spoke with the media, reflecting on fall practice and more.
