Roos 122 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Hope he has some friends in Kansas that play OL that might want to come with him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rednilla 5,383 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I'm cautiously optimistic about this guy. If he can come in and play at a high level from game 1, then we're in business even replacing everyone along the offensive front in 2020 (assuming neither Troxell nor Brahms steals a job this year), but we'll have to wait and see how he develops. Just reading the tea leaves, he doesn't seem like one to worry about flipping elsewhere, so that's good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doc4aday 1,887 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Nice pick up for sure. I like his 4.9 forty of which is really fast for a huge lineman like him. Now Gus, it is time to bring him some additional big uglies to cover our OL needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auskip07 930 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 I like the idea he comes in with a few years to play. He will be physically more mature when he sets foot on campus. He has the size and the speed to be a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, yeah I was wondering how everyone missed on him out of high school. Could be a late bloomer though like was said. That being said, I know we've gotten some decent skill guys out of juco, but I can't think of a single successful lineman we've gotten from juco (unless it was a guy we recruited out of high school and they couldn't qualify but went juco and came back). Greg Smith was a colossal failure, and the Bonomolo dude never panned out. Maybe I'm forgetting a success story there though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see that as unimpressed & all I was implying is I wouldn't make a call on being impressed or unimpressed on a kid overall now based on his past of how he got to juco.
