ellitor 33,107 Posted July 18, 2016 Author Share Posted July 18, 2016 For those immediately wondering this does not mean there are issues w/ Ashley or Troxell. AU always planned to take 3 OTs or 2 OTs & a swing Guard/Tackle guy in this class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFDTiger80 790 Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 This was probably the worst HS film I have ever seen. The field talent looks really mediocre, and slow. He may be a great player, but right now I would call him very raw. I will say he stays with his blocks. Sometimes, he made it look like the HS highlights from the movie, "The Blind Side".

I thought the same but FWIW Keith was at The Opening & said Eze was impressive & not as much of a project as people think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corchjay 5,311 Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Please tell me these highlights are a scrimmage. Terrible football by everyone and no emotion. Maybe the big fella was just taking it easy on his teammates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what you are saying is that he is just like our other 2? One of the ones here went from a virtual unknown JR to a 4* SR overnight. Every school in the country wanted him. Everyone in the country was excited about him at DE even though he only played 1 season of American Football. Now, he is being changed to an OT. Very raw. The other was also wanted by almost every major school. He was recruited as a DE by EVERY other school. Yet we recruited him as an OT. Pretty raw He will fit right in! WDE guys!

AuburnNTexas 7,154 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 With the two OT's we have who are committing this year along with Brahm's. We have the time to develop these Nigerian prospects if even 1 becomes a true OT it was worth the gamble. Who knows in a year or two we may even hit the jackpot by doing this. All of these guys have the height and wingspan to be great OT's and all have great foot speed so might even be able to become pulling guards. The raw talent level of these guys is hard to pass up.
