‘16 GA LB Bryson Armstrong (Kennesaw State Transfer)

[HoleInTheRoof]

He does not look big or physical enough for the SEC.

He overcomes his lack of physical attributes and melanin by being a hard worker, disciplined, and a student of the game.

I'm sure this is true. I just don't think you can underestimate how beat up he will get week in and week out in the SEC.

 

[Megatron88]

Bring him in ! We need all the help we can get at LB

 

[MiramarVol]

Reveiz 2.0, love to have him here. Maybe even better than Reveiz in his lateral movement.

Gym rat. Coaches son. Lives in the film room. Cerebral player.

Could be a helluva safety

Bill Bates

Seems like that type of player, but Bates was a little bigger.. 6'1" 210ish

 

[dmwhite1]

Perfect size for a safety

 

[landscapingvol]

At his age he only has 2-3 good years left, he is already 23

You just don’t see many with this guy’s physicality, motor and love for the game

 

[wmcovol]

But we’ll completely trash a high school 3 star cause some computer geek doesn’t like his instincts.

 

[Dudleys87]

We ain’t in any position to be turning dudes away at LB...

get em here, coach!

Who’s got the highlights?

Then how do NFL players make it for a decade plus at his size? That would put them in their 30’s.. this is an idiotic take. Avg age of the NFL is 26. The avg age of retirement being mid early 30’s. Last I checked that’s guys playing a lot more physical and fast game in the nfl than any college conference so how you can state he has 2-3 years left since he’s 23 is detarded... yes I misspelled the word, it’s a rickyism.

23? At BYU they call that a freshman.

Freshman year (2017)

Wants it.

 

[Volsdeep4]

holy mother of triple post

 

[avolation]

He would immediately start at Star or Nickel for us. Not sure what kind of defense we’ll be running.

 

[KnoxRealtorVOL]

Sorry, but do we just think the guy is handsome or something, or is there actual discussion of him coming here?

Otherwise why are we swooning over some FCS guy entering the portal?

 

[BreatheUT]

I'm sure this is true. I just don't think you can underestimate how beat up he will get week in and week out in the SEC.

Very good LBs have something in common, and that's excellent instincts and the ability to evade blockers. If you get locked up with a blocker then you are probably beat anyway. There's a role for him here. There's certainly some risks but if we have open scholarships then I say why not if it's possible.

 

[VolMarine1371]

Small (5-11, 205) but extremely productive at both Kell HS and KSU. National Freshman of the Year in '17. Short season last fall for KSU (4 games) but still racked up 30 tackles, 5.5 TFL, 1.5 sacks, and had a 74-yard pick six.

Zach Thomas, and Dextar Coakley was to small to, but they had nice careers. I remember when Doug Flutie was to small and wouldn’t play in NFL also.

Jabril Cox had worse stats coming out of NDSU when he transferred to LSU and he went in the 3rd round in the draft last week.

Darius Leonard (who played at South Carolina State) was 6’1 210 coming out of college.. he’s went 2nd round and is now arguably the best ILB in the NFL

I’m sure the kid is a good player, but has he even expressed any interest here?

We don’t for sure know if Jay Hardy has either but I’m sure you didn’t complain about that thread
