Word on the street Reid is going to need a lot of time in the weight room

Most freshmen do.

He looks like he is anout 205. Needs to be in the 230-240 range I would think

Can look at a picture and know that. Being a EE he will be fine. Ain't no thing for a kid his age to put on a healthy 15-30lbs in a strength program in college by fall camp. He will be fine at LB.

 

[AV_12]

Maggitt and JRM both needed to add weight coming in, he will be fine.

Yep, he's slim at this point

I was right about Todd Kelly Jr. last off-season when I said he was out of shape. The guy took a step back this year in terms of speed and athleticism. McDowell has never been in great shape and as a result has always been slow.

We need more athletes on defense if we want to improve from the joke we were last season. And guys like TKjr and McDowell simply aren't cutting it.

Bituli and Kirkland need to start at LB and Abernathy and Warrior need to start at safety.

Staff must look seriously into benching TKjr and McDowell.

Wish we could bench you and VN would drastically improve.

What do y'all think, will he be fine??

Not saying Callaway isn't talented but that's what you get when you take a chance on playing true freshmen. They will make a great play and then turn around and get burnt for a touchdown or fumble the ball. It's inevitable. They need time to grow and learn and mature especially in this league.

RIP OrangeHammer..last VN post.

Being an EE certainly doesn't hurt

You're not remembering things very well.

Going into 2015, you said Kelly would never be a good safety because of his love handles.

Summer 2016 rolls around, you saw a pic of Kelly where he seemed to have trimmed down, and you predicted he'd have 7 interceptions and be All-SEC.


Basically, you were just talking out of your a$$ as usual.

Because his mouth knew better... Haaaa

 

[LouderVol]

new system could have slowed kelly down as well. Mind tying up the feet thing.

I agree we need better athletes on the backend of our defense....both of these guys may be a step slow of prototyipical, but play with good instincts.

Until we sign the next Raynoch Thompson, Eric Westmoreland, Eddie Moore, Eric Berry....we gotta play what we got...

.5 lbs per week. 30 weeks away from fall camp
Totally doable. 💪🏾👍🏾

Easily for a young kid too. 😎😎😎😎😎

Love his confidence we need more of it on defense.

Yup. He wouldn't be chiseled as he'd have some water weight and a touch of extra padding to get rid of, but the extra mass would definitely help.

Hell, I'm doing a light bulk and have already gained ~8 pounds in just under two months.

I can gain eight pounds by the end of the weekend! Of course it would be from junk food and alcohol and I might have to be hospitalized but I could do it! :angry:

Bro you just gotta drink whey and vary your reps. Sometimes I like to spin around in a few circles after a set, get those muscles really confused. So easy to gain 30 lbs of lean muscle in a month.

I've seen you at the gym! I thought you were just drunk. Huh. Who knew?

 

[PrattvilleVol]

Trust me, kids from Maryville and Alcoa would by no means say they played together.

If they met up in Alabama you can bet your arse they would say it. I played at GP and wouldn't hesitate living in Alabama.
