Can you just DIAFF already?StrongArmCobra said:
Yeah, when you hear the coaches talking to a kid about using him at multiple spot across the D-line that means they see him as a D-lineman. He started out as an exclusive Buck recruit at 235 pounds (Hence Coach K being his primary recruiter) and grew into a D-line recruit. He's a 3-tech with the speed to play outside as well so a swing d-lineman the likes of Levi Onwuzurike and Jaylen Johnson. Sure, he may play some Buck without ever being asked to drop into coverage like Jaylen Johnson was this season but he won't primarily play Buck long term. If he can help us as a true Freshman it's likely at Buck but after that first season I don't see it. But you're right about one thing. It's not worth arguing back and forth about. They'll fit him in where he fits in best. I'm just confident that won't be primarily at Buck.LaMichael_Corleone said:StrongArmCobra said:Some of you are fucking idiots. This kid is not a fucking Buck. He's as big or bigger than Stephon Wright and Drake Jackson. He's gonna keep getting bigger. He's the fifth defensive lineman in this class whether you like it or not. It's awesome. It's great. Another elite defensive lineman. Stop trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. He's not an OLB that will be standing up on the edge and sometimes dropping into coverage. Just stop with the stupidity. And stop mentioning Latu and Benning in the same fucking sentence. Benning is nowhere near this kid athletically.
Dood he can do both. It’s not about size as it is physical skill set. The dood is a BUCK who can play inside as well but doesn’t have the leverage to 2-Gap like our defense would like unless he’s playing no more inside than a 5-Teq. Coach K is his primary for that reason. We want to do multiple things against multiple teams. Against Colorado we played a lot of 5-1 with Benning being bumped inside and Tevis moving back outside.
He even talks about it in an interview where he said we want to use him at multiple spots so he talked to Gregory and Malloe on the visit as well when Trice definitely didn’t. We should be complimenting the kid on how big of a freak he is, how athletic and physical he is, not fighting over where he’s going to “exclusively” play when really it doesn’t fucking matter. -

I am a bit confused. Is Cam Davis still committed? I thought we were only taking one RB this year.

Dear Christ, as a general rule I never watch hudl or highlights until these guys are signed(Fuck you Kaho) but @CokeGreaterThanPepsi forced me to watch Laiatu's hudl. I will never forgive him if we don't sign this kid.
