You're absolutely right about the trenches being the foundation. Every championshpi team at our level is built there first. But I've watched Bethel's staff prioritize those exact big bodies you're talking about, and it shows on the field. Our defensive front dominated the line last year because we went and got those portal monsters you mentioned. Maybe your staff is just looking in the wrong places or selling a vision those linemen don't buy. You can't just want them, you have to develop a plan to land them. Skill players are flashy, but the real work gets done up front with guys who want to be the anchor. Your frustration is valid if the focus isn't there.
