    Is that legit buck recruiting strategy?

    Take athleticism and add 40-60lbs worth of rhino cum? That will take too long.

    I also added that he needs a RS season. That would be smart for him, so he can put on more lbs. before he is on the depth chart. I know he can't put on 40-60 in a year. He'd be fat as shit. Murphy benefitted tremendously from his RS season where he put on nearly 20. Adding 15-20 by his senior season and another 15-20 as a RS is feasible for his frame. If he's 220-230 by the time he actually plays, which is realistic, then it's not a big deal. The athleticism he would lose would be minimal at worst. Who knows what he'll weigh at the Opening?

    Don't twist either. I never said it was a legit strategy, but at least we would land somebody. A legit strategy right now is the JUCO route or targeting the few and far between players in the west like Drake Jackson, who we would have a chance with. What's your strategy?

    I like Patu as well. There are a couple wait-and-see guys left in this year's in-state class who might have good senior years, but Patu is the only one left I think I'd feel good about offering right now.

    He can definitely grow into that frame. His speed and bend around the edge is pretty impressive for a guy who is legit 6'4".

    Also, powerball is test where you throw a ball from your chest, with a bench press-like motion, while standing on your knees so there's no extra torque. I think it's meant to assess upper body power.

    How come when I say this I get butt-fucked, and when anyone else says it, then it's no problem?

    Lot of buttfuckers on this bored. There can't be buttfuckers without buttfuckees.

    I must've been a good sport about it all along. All the other buttfuckees have left.
