Matt Tennant is also talking about the ability to play multiple positions including either guard spot. A San Fran blog had the 40 times of high profile linemen. As you can see, Tennant was on the fast side.
Here are the unofficial times of other offensive linemen of note. West Viriginia's Ed Wang 5.46; Cal's Mike Tepper 5.37; Notre Dame's Sam Young 5.19, LSU's Ciron Black 5.49, Iowa's Bryan Bulga 5.26; Iowa's Kyle Calloway 5.51, Rutgers's Anthony Davis 4.38, UMass's Vladmir Ducasse 5.21; Idaho's Mike Iupati 5.26; Ole Miss's John Jerry 5.18; Oklahoma State's Russell Okung 5.17; Arkansas's Mitch Petrus 5.29; Boston College's Matt Tennant 5.13 and Texas Tech's Brandon Carter 5.36. Unofficial times are typically slower than official times.

"West Viriginia's Ed Wang"
Didn't Wang play for VT? I only think this because he was not much of a fan favorite for most Hokies as he seemed to always be the one who had a timely screw-up penalty.
Meaning...I've heard "f*ck you, Ed Wang!!" more than a couple times.
Rutger's Anthony Davis ran a 4.38? That's an O-liner? No way.
McLaughlin's I-can-long-snap-too strategy is a smart approach, especially with NFL bloodlines thrown in.
In fact, this was the same exact successful strategy used by LB Zak DeOssie* to get from Brown to the NFL. Hope it works for McL.
(* son of BC legend Steve DeOssie (a frighteningly crazy guy on campus back in the day!))
Zak went on to earn himself a Superbowl ring and became an all-pro long snapper. Not bad.
