So dude is so good we're gonna change our entire defensive system to accommodate his skills?Dennis_DeYoung said:DE
NTD, BB!! -
I love him too. His hudl is 3 minutes of him throwing large Poly DTs and OLs on their backs. He's not super agile in space, so DT makes more sense than guard IMO. I'm extremely excited at the idea of him as a potential replacement for Vea and Gaines. He's not as good as Togiai or Letuligasenoa, but I think he's a close #3 on our board as far as west coast guys go. And no, I haven't looked at any of the Texas kids we've offered; we're not getting any of them, so why bother.

Yeah, I wish he had more defensive highlights. I loved his offensive highlights and would be very happy to have him on our OL. But his body type makes more sense for us along the DL (Maybe he can play DE!!!!1! or the 5tech!!11). Like @Woof said, he just is a powerful fucker, I could see him being a big disruptor for us, fits our DL scheme perfectly.
Also, East HS produces a shit ton of talent, I'd love to have him and I really want to get a foot into Utah recruiting. -

Yeah his most impressive current trait is just how powerful his initial punch is right now. Seems to be the perfect heir-apparent for Greg Gaines in terms of potential playing style/body type.CokeGreaterThanPepsi said:Yeah, I wish he had more defensive highlights.

We need this guy. If we get him and Cravens I will be very happy with the DL class.
Agree about playing him at DT. I used to love huge, mauling guards, but our guards pull a lot. -
