You can count me as one of those who voted the same, and feel the same as you.  Paul Alexander may have been a good OL coach, developer of talent, and even innovative with his blocking schemes at one point in time, but that time is not now, nor has it been that time in a few years.  It's like basic, fundamental skills like "firing off the ball" on running plays has been lost, the concept of blocking "from the inside, moving outward" on passing plays is also a lost idea with him. 

My point is, the OL should be the most physically aggressive unit on the team, not a set of uniquely skilled "finesse athletes".  The fundementals of football are blocking and tackling, and right now, and for quite a while, our OL Coach is not getting his guys to fundamentally block.
