The Semi-Forgotten Man

[VOLorNuttin]

With all the talk and attention being focused on North, Pearson, and Malone with good reason, I want to talk about the semi-forgotten man, one Jason Croom. In the justified hype of North....

Friends don't let friends...sniff glue.

Cocaine is a hell of a drug. If I was good with gifs I'd have made one with a pic of rick James...bit#@$. Anyway, what the hell is this poem? We got a bunch of big, badazz players. Croom isn't as explosive as North or Pig. And we'll see but... Probably not as much as Malone or vp either. But he's a solid player. Imo he should move to TE, where he'd be by far the most explosive player we have at the position. Either way he's still got plenty of time to come into his own. Sometimes it just takes one break out performance. And maybe he never becomes the main man at wr... Just a solid contributer and good leader. He definitely has excellent character. We'll see. But man, your poem is just weird

Mz terry... If Croom ever complains to you he thinks he's being stalked... Start your investigation with the Op. Haha

With all the talk and attention being focused on North, Pearson, and Malone with good reason, I want to talk about the semi-forgotten man, one Jason Croom. In the justified hype of North, and wild with expectations for Pearson, Malone, Croom is rarely mentioned. He’s a monster of a WR who at season end was showing progress. It continued during spring practice. When the Butch unleashes this monster man, with North and/or Pearson at the other end, well. . . .

I was working in the lab, late one night
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
For my monster from his slab, began to rise
And suddenly to my surprise

Six foot-five, 235 pounds of bone and muscle, this son-of-gun is going hit like sixteen tons. Now, imagine a single tackler way out in the lonesome field away from line of scrimmage, trying to drag down this horror after a catch. Woe to any caught all alone with him out there after a catch. And if it’ head on, bash won’t be the word, but mash will.

He did the mash, he did the monster mash
The monster mash, it was a graveyard smash
He did the mash, it caught on in a flash
He did the mash, he did the monster mash

He’s had a year under belt and to get his routing running right. As he said, he’s been focusing on using his body more effectively. Only natural because his body is a natural weapon. I fully expect to see opponent defenders doing what happened with Jarnell Stokes. They will just bounce off that monstrous frame. The beauty is that teams won’t be able to key on him due to the other monsters we have in North, Malone and Pearson. Defenders time and again will have to go one on one with these guys. And this is why we will finally see the real Jason Croom, but our opponents will call him ‘Doom.” My apologies, Victor, Lord of Latveria.

The zombies were having fun
The party had just begun
The guests included Wolfman,
Dracula, and his son

And of course we got a second tier supporting cast in Carter, Blanc, Smith, Wharton, Helm, and Johnson. All who can take advantage of a tired and whipped bunch of cornerbacks and safeties. Perhaps damaged as well from bouncing off and having the witlessness to be truck mashed by the Croom they call Doom.

The scene was rockin', all were digging the sounds
Igor on chains, backed by his baying hounds
The coffin-bangers were about to arrive
With their vocal group, 'The Crypt-Kicker Five'

Jason Croom will be semi-forgotten no more. Take it away, Bobby:

They played the mash, they played the monster mash
The monster mash, it was a graveyard smash
They played the mash, it caught on in a flash
They played the mash, they played the monster mash

 

[griffdog14]

Yeah, Croom is a big guy.

 

[Titan&Volfan4life]

Count me in on the CROOMSTER bandwagon.

I still believe he'll get it all together and become a really good one for us.

Some kids just don't have their breakout year until they're juniors or seniors and then go on to have a good NFL career so never give up on the CROOMSTER because he could fool you before his UT days are over.

Name calling isn't nice

Forgotten WR? My first thought went to Ryan Jenkins... and then to Kameel Jackson... and then to J. Johnson... and then I started thinking about TEs...

We're going to be an absolute nightmare to defend if our OL can block and one of our QBs can throw the ball with any consistency. I haven't even mentioned the beasts we'll have in the backfield.

Unfortunately, because of those questions at OLine, I think we'll see a lot of dumps to the RB on a quick out and screen plays, but we have big, physical WRs/TEs that can block for them.. and they're fast.

We gonna whip dey azz.

NOW THIS IS LUV! NO MATTER HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT CROOM.... WOODSMANVOL... THIS IS LUV.

THANK U:yahoo::salute::thumbsup::hi::rock::dance2::

PS: Croomster has grown... he's taller than 6'5" when he came into UT

 

[Brave Volunteer]

I certainly haven't forgotten him! I expect nothing short of greatness from Mr. Croom this season! He will be a match up nightmare in the end zone this season!

MzTerry, I follow the NFL draft closely every year, and one thing I noticed is that the NFL loves players with the physical size Jason has, but even if he has a breakout/stellar year, the one thing that will make or break his standing in the eyes of NFL teams and and draft analysts is.....speed. Does he have average speed for his size, or does he have the deep speed to climb on top of DB's.

A lot of draftnicks thought Texas A&M's Mike Evans would be slow (high 4.6-4.7 range)...at the NFL combine, he shut them all up, by running a 4.4/40. That vaulted him from a late 1st to 2nd Rd pick to No.7 overall. He must have worked his tail off on that part of his game, and it paid off, handsomely.

Another 6'5" receiver hurt his stock a bit by running a 4.6/40...Kelvin Benjamin, who had a highly productive season for FSU. He ended up being drafted at No.28 overall. Millions of dollars difference, even though both had great years and on high-profile teams.

I said all of that to say this...I think Jason likewise, could help not only himself, but his team, by getting with a good track/speed coach, this off-season and the next (maybe the staff can recommend one to him), to work really hard on his straight line speed. Off the line and top end speed. If he can smoke some good SEC DB's deep once in while, NFL teams, scouts and analysts will take notice. And it will help the team get over the hump, back on top of the SEC E division.

Not saying Jason is slow, by any means, but guys that size typically are not known for their speed....so extra work with a good coach can only help.

I think he will have a very good year. He was a total mismatch in the one on one drills at the O&W game. I hope he can translate that to game play in 2014.

I believe Croom can come alive this year too.

That being said, Woodsman, you seem to have waaaaay too much time on your hands. Now I can't get that stupid song outta my head.

On a side note, I wish Bama would recruit a QB named Kenny. That way, when we sack him hard, one side of the stadium can yell, "Oh my God, he killed Kenny." You know the opposite side's response.
