Does he bleed purple?

Does jaegermeister puss out in the cold like his old man?

I don't know what I expected from a Fr LB, but he definitely exceeded my expectations. Hope he grows to love Azeem & Death Row the way we have.

That was cool. He tackles just like his Dad. Takes short steps as he reads the play then throws arms back and delivers a blow. He looks like he will have some of Uncle Stephens height who was 6'6", well he was listed 6'6" but really taller.

He looks fucking good and has a great frame. Will for sure be Pac12 level player.

DerekJohnson · December 2015

He's already 6'2"

I was going to comment on his tackling too, clearly his dad has groomed him, he brings his arms on the tackle like he's been tackling for 10 years, kid is legit.

Did I just seriously watch a freshman football highlight film of a kid that wasn't playing on varsity?

He's bigger than everybody he's playing against ... but the thing that stands out is that when he tackles they either go straight down or backwards. The technique is sound in the fundaments (to be expected given his lineage) and for that age seems to be relatively comfortable playing in space. Definitely not stiff in the hips ... not hard to project as a PAC level player.

Only question that I have is whether or not he'll end up getting too big to play MLB and instead will have to follow his uncle's footsteps to the DL or to the outside as a LB.

How are his hips? Fridge or shower?

PurpleJ · December 2015

He looks like he likes to hit people. I like that. Secret DAWG verbal? 2021 can be special?

Imagine another Hoffmann playing for the Dawgs!!

Fuck. Even Jerry Sandusky thinks this shit is over the line.

That said, it'd be great to have Hoffman roaming the sidelines again!

Dave Hoffman did it right in life. There are guys who played 10 years after him who have kids in high school.

I don't like his son's HS colors.

When even the Samoans in the highlight are little, it's time to step back and take a long walk to gain some perspective.
