Your not 6.6 325 with a 5.5 40 and 29 inch vertical. Ole Miss thinks he is SEC Caliber. Didn't they put a hurtin on the great Monte and O's D this year?

Nope. McCluxster did. he single-handedly beat Monte and Company last year.

As an OL, I didn't see much to like here.

- Slow (I mean, slower than Bernie Kosar's mother)
- Below average handwork
- Below average footwork
- Poor balance

Basically what I see is someone who is absolutely massive and uses his size and strength to push around vastly physically inferior opponents.

With work and being put into the right scheme, there might be some potential there. I don't really see a great deal though.

Sounds about right. If he was good enough, then he would have an offer. Ole Miss would offer anybody a spot to get their numbers up.

I have Orange in my blood as well. That doesn't mean I'm an SEC-caliber football player.

Amen...I hate the "he is fast/big/strong....UT needs him" argument....and with all due respect to a prior post..if it takes you 2 hrs. to get to cleveland from knoxville, you are traveling on a vespa.

So pretty much what I said...hmmm.

It's good to have a coach agree with my opinions.

Cleveland Tennessee has some pretty good players from time to time(maybe all the time),
are the schools any good academic wise though? And what is the GPA a player must maintain at UT?

Nice. That'll be lost on a lot of the younger guys on here, but still funny.lol:lol:

That 3.6 GPA is inaccurate relative to most schools; I'm from Cleveland originally. Walker Valley academics are weak.

He's not very good at all. Ole Miss isn't getting much with this guy. He's slow and very soft. He is big however, so he has alot of upside and who knows, maybe he'll be good one day, but right now, he is extremely soft

+1 Watched him play and he is very slow and weak. I talked with people inside the program and they said he is not very motivated plus he's not the least bit aggressive. In fact most everyone at the school wonders what Ole Miss see's in him other than size.

I believe they did made almost a nobody a Heisman in one day
