Ford replaces Maggitt as the speed rusher. Good stuff. FWIW - if he is selected to play against some of the best in the country - doesn't that make him one of the best in the country? It's not like it's a Harlem Globetrotters game.

The only thing holding us back from being a team to be feared every game, is just half decent OL play. Doesn't even have to be great, just decent. You have seen what this offense can do with just a little breathing space. I hope we can field a decent OL by 2016. It is going to take some real doing from the diaper brigade coming in. JMO. The defense has the potential to be the best UT defense since 98. They truly are building a monster. It will be good enough to keep us in any game by 2016.

Yeah he is the number 5 DL in Florida I believe. The guy can play ball. Once he has a full year in the weight room and a full year under coach strip he will be really good. I can sit back and learn from Vereen, Barnett, and CM

First time to see his highlights. This guy is the real deal. Those takedowns were vicious. Another b@dass for the good guys.

Ford reminds me of Maggitt somewhat. He has a quick first step, violent hands, and finishes plays with some attitude. Really explodes into the backfield.

Ford definitely seems to be a bit underrated by the recruiting services. I hope UT can hold onto him. He has all the makings of becoming a stud DL down the road.

This all day. That oline gives me indigestion and imagining this future defense is the antacid.

Plays in a bad mood. I like that.

Camera isn't even quick enough to follow him into the backfield on at least one of those plays, haha.

Speaking of Maggitt, do you guys remember how skinny he was when he signed with UT? Rivals had him listed at 6'3 195

Crazy when you think about all the weight he has added while keeping his speed and agility.
