Getting Emmanuel in the 23' class and being able to join the program in a few weeks is huge. I mean huge. We need more bodies in the TE room badly and getting a kid with his potential in early is going to pay off dividends down the road. Love this kids attitude and personality as well. I think he is going to be an extremely hard worker and his positive attitude will rub off on others. Big, big get for obvious reasons. It's going to take him some time to become an SEC level TE, but once he learns how to block, and run our offense, the sky is the limit for him. He could be a scary scary weapon down the seam.
 
Excited for his potential but if he’s a TE we are at least 2 years if not 3 from seeing him on the field. DE he would just need a RS year.

I think he could easily see action in G5 games in 2024 at TE. Also currently it looks Edge is going to be full of high 4*/5* caliber players so his path to playing is still better on offense even if the learning curve is higher.

We have a lot of DE’s who don’t need to learn the game ahead of him…with more incoming. Currently it’s him and Davis as scholarship TE’s on next year’s roster.
 
Over/Under on the date during the 2023 season that we get our first post on volnation saying that he "might be a bust/probably going to transfer" due to the fact that he has not cracked the rotation? Probably going to take a great deal of patience before he gets there. But good lawd that young man was built in a computer (cue Weird Science insert) to be a football player. He is a create a player on XBox with like every athletic attribute maxed at 99.

I love this so much. I've always wanted to get one of these NFL academy guys. Their stories are so cool. We're not supposed to stereotype, but Nigerians kick ass. Sports, business, engineering...every Nigerian I know or know of is accomplished. I would love for him to put us on the map in Africa and then the next guy comes here, too.
 
If you wanted to you could use him in a goal line package now. It doesn’t take a neuroscientist to split out from the end of the line and run to a spot on the field. Let CJH scheme a one on one with a safety. 6’5” with a 45” vertical. Just throw it up and have him go after it.

Its about time neuroscientists starting taking their fair share of blunt end of rocket scientist jokes.
