It’s rare for a freshman defensive lineman come in a contribute right away at the SEC level most need a redshirt year. Really don’t know his situation but hopefully that’s the case if he comes to UT.One game? Was he injured? If not, one has to wonder what the problem was. Guess he's a body at a position of need, but it doesn't sound like we are getting a real impact player.
I see your point..but almost 40 pounds is bad. Baron is the exact same size, Simmons lost 30 pounds. You don’t gain 40 pounds of good weight in less than a year when you’re already a 6’3 280 man. Him not playing but one game plus losing conditioning= probably injured. Nonetheless I’d still love if he came hereNot necessarily, IIRC he played basketball in HS and factor in your body naturally getting bigger with a college S&C program you could easily forecast his body going through a transformation.
I’m back and forth on this. I remember all the drama with the kid’s recruitment, as we all do. I know we certainly need the help and seem desperate. The back is currently in front of the forth.Fortunately for us we have his position coach from last year so he knows exactly what happened last year. Will be interesting to see what we do.
He’s kind of like Sabbanochio in that he reads VQ and tries to pretend he knows.
