Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

How are we this guy's only offer?

He reminds me a little bit of a former Husky DT.

If Socha gets his hands on him maybe he can do this too:

    Wow... He plays too high but that can be fixed. Big people don't move like that, he moves very well. I like him.

    Just throw together a meaningless smattering of recruiting buzzwords followed by "he's just another guy. Nothing really that special." Then you have purpledoogfan's analysis

    Yup, PDF's specialty is talking in circles. If he was commenting on that film he'd find a way to say the guy is worthless and will do nothing in football AND that he is the next Danny Shelton all in the same post. That way he is covered regardless. Something like:

    "Meh. His get-off is below average, he doesn't shoot his hands and he plays on skates; But his initial explosion is outstanding, his push-pull is unstoppable and his quickness in short spaces is other worldly."

    Yea, but what about his hips?

    The tape is sped up slightly. It's a common trick to make kids look better. He's good, but... Yeah.

    His HUDL profile says 6ft 1 which probably means he is 5ft 11. Socha can't teach height.

    Warren Sapp was only 6'2 but I did not realize his 40 was 4.69

    It's all relative. Why wouldn't the other players be sped up on the tape too?

    Yeah that would be my biggest concern, he's listed at 6' on Scout...not ideal but it doesn't seem to be a good year for NT / DTs on the West Coast.

    But IMHO, a 6' NT is ok with me if he eats up blockers in the running game and presents some inside pass-rush. Come to think of it, how many balls did Danny Shelton bat down?

    Also a recruiting analyst compared him to this guy, who had a good offer sheet:

    They are. It's just a spotlight effect. If you speed up the tape and you're mostly watching one guy, you are more impressed with that guy—who ostensibly is already outperforming the other players on the tape.

    It's an old, old trick.

    Do you understand how Hudl works? Obviously, you don't. This is not a "highlight video". It is clips from game footage uploaded by his team to Hudl. Are you suggesting that his team increases the speed by 5-10% every time they upload? That would require recompression, which takes a fair bit of time. No team would spend that time.
