Calling it now: Phil Trautwein is the single most important assistant on this coaching staff for the next two years and it's not even close. The Yahoo report about Florida being in contention for a top OL recruit despite an uphill battle tells you everything about where this program is headed. Sumrall inherited a roster that ranked 112th in sacks allowed last season and the path back to relevance runs entirely through the offensive line.
Trautwein has consistently developed NFL talent at multiple stops and Florida's trench play has been the biggest gap between them and the SEC elite. If he lands this top target, the Gators go from a line that gets their QB killed to one that can actually establish a run game and protect whoever wins the QB job. The entire offensive ceiling depends on whether Trautwein can pull this off.
