I think they practiced him at LB during the Spring.  I talked to Dee in Tampa and he is on a weight gaining program and said he would be gaining 20 pounds.  He is a great kid and I hope he does well.   

During his time at DE in the ball state game he looked like he had a very large upside... but i guess time and weight will tell the tale.  :thumbsup:

He is obviously very light at DE. BUT.. if he can gain weight AND keep his speed, he could be something very, very special. A lot is uncertain. How much (muscle) weight can he gain and still be fast? CAn he hold his own against the run? I feel that he certainly can be a pass rush specialist, and, maybe a whole lot more!

Until he adds the weight, he will be a valuable special teams guy... and possibly a 3rd and long pass rusher.

Now I may be wrong, but I have seen a few pictures of him recently, and he looks like hes heading in the right direction

He is working out every day...  he was at home in Odenville this week and told me he would be working out every day at the gym.  He told me the next time I saw him he would have put on 20 pounds.  He is a great guy and I am excited about his future at AU!!!
