  08/14/22 - OG Josh LuggrSr/2023, Notre Dame

  Don't get Harry Hiestand started on arm length. While some might wonder how that factored into the pre-camp juggling of Notre Dame's offensive line, the veteran line-play guru considers the whole topic somewhat pointless. "That's something that people like to talk about," Hiestand said. "Just watch the guy play. Either he can block or he can't block. Get your hands inside. If you have long arms and your hands are always outside..." He shook his head. Arm length, he said, is "not a big issue."

For proof, he cited Dallas Cowboys perennial All-Pro Zack Martin, one of Hiestand's top proteges during his prior run in South Bend from 2012-17. "A guy named Zack Martin, a future Hall of Fame player, that's all everybody talked about was how short his arms were," Hiestand said. "I thought it was a joke." Martin's 32 7/8-inch arm length was considered a detriment when he entered the NFL as the 16th-overall pick in 2014. The average arm length for an NFL guard is 33 inches. For a tackle it's 34 inches, while a center at the game's top level averages 32 1/2 inches in arm length. For reference, Josh Lugg, moved back inside to right guard after starting 12 games last season at right tackle, said he has an arm length of 31 3/4 inches. - South Bend Tribune
