Bloomgren left Carbery a massive recruiting hole; it took a few years to restock the OL.

I need to understand this statement a bit more thoroughly.  If I remember correctly, when Carberry arrived for the 2018 season, he had third-year Nate Herbig (junior) plus two 5-star sophomore recruits, Walker Little and Foster Sarell, while senior Jesse Burkett was at center.  That's a pretty strong corps to build with. In fact, we all thought that Bryce Love would have truck-sized holes to barrel through with that O-line.  But it didn't happen, unfortunately.  With that personnel on O-line, it doesn't appear as if the cupboard was totally bare.  What am I missing? (and I am not being facetious with this question, because maybe I am missing something).
