amsterjam 107 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 I love that these young guys are pushing for playing time. The way I see it is like this. Take Evans and Frost for example. We already have a good idea what Evans brings to the table. On a scale of 1-10 if Evans is a 7, for Frost to take his spot Frost would have to be an 8 or higher. I didn't think it would be fair to Holland to use him in this example since he was slowed by injuries most of last year but I think you guys get my point.

alexava 6,973 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 I think jake has plenty of speed. However someone posted his #s at 6'1". No way he is that tall. 5'11" tops. Thats ok zack thomas did fine shorter than that. i like jake and have since he signed i dont care whp plays i just want to get the d back to pre 2008 form.

WDE_OxPx_2010 5,322 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 If I recall, didn't Jake come in and get some meaningful reps behind Bynes in 2010? I'm pretty sure he then injured his ankles and wrist pretty severely (for a MLB) in 2011 for most of it and still had a solid year with OLmen in his grill. I feel confident in his ability, you guys need to relax a little bit on the practice information being let out. That being said- Cass is not a weak link. Whoever plays in the opener will be the most ready and the best choice, period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RD$AU 0 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 After reading some of these posts and "analyzations", I hope Clemson is as optimistic as some of us are pessimistic. If this be be the case ....... :aufb: As for Jake, like all MLB's, he will be as good as the DL allows him to be. JMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very few players (or recruits) are as tall as posted on rosters, magazines and web sites. They all seem to shrink 1 to 2 inches when the Pros put the tape on 'em.
