    Oregon had the same problem with Radcliff forever. It was always about flexibility and explosiveness over strength. Other than 2010 every season under him was basically decided by injury. The evidence was overwhelming.

    I've never seen anything official on it, but a close friend of mine is a HS coach in Eugene and is always at the UO and he said there were only 25 guys on the roster that could bench 225lbs when Willie Took over. Willie couldn't fire him because he works for the AD but his first move was getting rid of him and replacing him with The Hospitalizer.

    I couldn't image a Power 5 program where only half the roster could push two plates, but the injuries and soft play makes it believable.

    Jesus

    Of course that's not fucking true.

    Every dude on my high school team over 175 could bench 225.
    Your casual dad who goes to the YMCA a couple times a week benches 225.

    Not even with a Smith machine assist, would that be true.
