North Texas sophomore running back Jamario Thomas was named the College Male Athlete of the Year by the Dallas All Sports Association at the organizations annual All-Star Awards Banquet in Dallas Tuesday night.

Stop complaining about JT's carries. Jeezus. You gotta understand that if the OL isn't blocking well, it doesn't matter who runs the ball because they'll never get more than a few yards from the play.

We all know that the OL is the anchor of the offense. Without them, nothing can really happen. With a good OL and a rookie QB, he can have time to pass or scramble. A good OL can help a new RB make good yardage. Without a strong OL, you can have bloody Vince Young back there and it won't matter because he'll be hit before he can decide to scramble.
