    I hope this kid is good

    I'm hoping he reconsiders his commitment.

    I have no problem with this kid. After the elite guys, I don’t give a shit about star rating. It’s all about evaluating the right guys and developing after the sure fire studs.

    Agreed. Azeem, BBK, Littelton, Bierria. All 3 stars, right?

    Speed is the only thing that matters. The rest can usually be got or taught.

    This is tough for me to swallow, thinking of how many times I see Wellington and Ngata getting bulldozed out of the play by a guard who outweighs them by 90 lbs.

    I think Littleton was a 2 star. I trust the coaches. They like this kid, he plays 5A TX football, film looks good, good athlete.

    “Usually”

    Ngata not being able to put on weight is a problem for sure, but he’s still a better option than Manu, who is a slow, fat fuck. Slow, fat fucks don’t change.

    Not saying size isn’t important, but I think speed and instincts come first.

    Wellington has very bad instincts and football IQ. The rest of them aren’t athletic enough to make up for their deficiencies.

    I am glad we did not redshirt Wellington

    Yep, Wellington just doesn't seem to get it.
