LV get a grip. No offer because we already have big targets and are more in need of slot guys. It's not because of a 40 time. It's more than just that.

the staff continues to call Gallon regularly.

Michigan, Rutgers & USF do the same.

Maybe once he drops his 40 time to 4.25 we'll make an offer. Can't be hand-clocked though. Or wind-aided.

that time of the month eh.

His speed is the main reason we haven't offered. That's common knowledge.

And why you gotta be such an ass everytime you post, dang?

Because you were clearly trying to do the same to me. And you just did it again "common knowledge". Common knowledge is the comparison I made to Matt Milton.... it goes both ways.

All I'm saying is we aren't NOT offering him only because he's posted a sub-par 40 time. There's more to it than that. It may be one of the reasons, but it's not the only reason. Why would we offer another 6'5 wideout when we're only probably taking 2 WRs and need slots? Yeah, I'm sure if he ran a 4.3 at 6'5 we'd offer him, but so would alot of other schools that haven't offered.

Why offer A.J. Johnson? Isn't he knocked for being a half-step slow?

I'm not trying to be an ass.... it just seemed like you were doin' it to me.
 
he is more than a half a step slow and i really wasn't trying to 1-up you or whatever you think i do everytime i post.

Everytime I post you just happen to post right after me contradicting me no matter what I say.

Me: The earth is round.

LV: The earth is flat.

But it's cool... I can take it if you can take it. So why'd we offer Johnson if he's slow? Just because of depth??? Noo.
 
So you disagree with Rivals' assessment of his mobility and lateral quickness to play LB then? Are you assuming he's a DE?

Needs Improvement: Johnson has a tendency to play high at the point of attack. He will need to stay lower and become the attacker, not the attacked. He also needs to improve lateral quickness by improving flexibility in the knees and hips if he intends to play linebacker in college.

Conclusion: I believe that he will be given a shot at playing linebacker, but like Allen Bailey at Miami he will end up with his hand on the ground. Those schools that passed on him because of mobility issues will regret it, because Johnson will overcome that with his tenacious attitude on the football field.
 
Point being: Every recruit has a knock. You say Gallon is more than a step slow. His 40 time is no worse than Matt Milton's who is on scholarship. So to say if he was faster he'd have a scholarship offer (and leave it at that, which is what you originally did and sparked this conversation) just wouldn't be fully correct. As you said, it is one of the reasons but not the only.

All I'm sayin'.

yes i disagree because he is going to be an LB here and Thompson and Wilcox know LBs.

and fwiw Rivals, Scout, and ESPN all think he is an LB cuz that's what he's listed as.

i don't care what Rivals has listed, his 40 time is worse than Miltons. Milton ran a 4.4 at camp last year.

and everybody covering recruiting says he would have an offer if he was faster.
 
Right, but I copied that from Rivals. Soooo how do they think he'll be a LB when the conclusion says otherwise?

My point wasn't even about A.J. Johnson. The point is that people ARE knocking his mobility but we offered him. Soooo, you don't just not offer a guy based on 1 criteria.

I mean we can really keep doing this if you want.

Ok so if Gallon runs a 4.4 one time in camp we'll offer. Right? One 40 time = scholly.

Milton is listed at 4.57 and Gallon a 4.5 on Rivals.

Yes if he runs a 4.4 or even a real 4.5 we offer and so does everyone else in the country. They really like him. Speed is the only knock.

As I stated above, Milton ran a 4.4 at camp last year.
