Love the comment about Wright.

I really like how this class send like a bunch of guys that really want to play together.

With the early enrollees we'll have, it'll be interesting to see how that plays out when we have visitors this month.

Did you watch any of this last season? There weren't many holes for Chandler and Jordan to run through. At all.

I saw slow developing running plays that kept trying to go through the same place in the line Time After Time.

I think that comrade is what makes a great team. I think we're seeing it in our basketball program. Band of brothers.

Gray was a prospect who made a lot of headlines as a senior and there are big expectations for him this week in the All-American Bowl. Our first impression of him, though, is that he was noticeably smaller than the other backs on his team without a commensurate increase in speed or quickness to compensate. Fellow East running backs Trey Sanders and Chez Mellusi were bigger and just as, if not more, explosive as Gray on the first day of team practices.

He’s 200 pounds. That’s small?

 

[Smokeytom]

He does look rather lean for 198lbs. Not a bad thing at all just a fact. He said his playing weight will be around 205lb I wonder if he can’t be more like 210-215 and keep his athleticism. Either way he’ll be a stud in orange.

They do realize he’s an APB and those type of backs are usually smaller than your traditional RB?

People thought Alvin Kamara was undersized too.... if you got the muscle to back it up and the leg drive it doesn’t really matter.

Rivals still trying to justify why they have him rated so low. They had Gray ranked like 33rd in the state this time last year. He is from the wrong end of the state and didn't camp so Rivals gonna Rivals...

 

[JacketVol]

don’t say anything negative about rivals

TBF though, Kamara has always been considered super explosive.

Saying Gray is smaller and not more explosive than some 5 star backs isn’t a huge knock and there’s a lot more to playing RB than being big and explosive.

Definitely agree. Things also change when it’s gameday as well. So we will see but the real test will be what he does in the spring game.

@Bassmaster_Vol says coach weinke his guy.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

I'm not so sure of that.

So our OL can run block?

So where can I see this pic of that recruiting weekend he's talking about?

Somewhere between page 38 and page 101. Should be in that general vicinity.

That angle looked slick as hell

A lot of running backs can make a defender miss in the open field, but it appears that Gray can juke a defender out in a phone booth.
