Reeves Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Because of the continued attrition on the OL, I started thinking about who might play from the freshmen class of OL; my guess:1 Hunter Long - G 6'4 300 - seems like a straight football player, good blood-lines and earned his scholly at a camp in front of the coaches2 Watts Dantzler - G/T 6'7 325 - highly recruited kid with good but not great tools to play as a freshmanI think all the LBers play. Chris Conley will get his fair share. The DBs will playJust my two cents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freight Train Jones Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 (edited) Agree, asked this several times but what kind of shape is Danzler in? And I heard DeBell put on significant good wieght, anyone know where his wieght is at right now?Dantzler's cut his weight down a lot, he and Hunter Long really hit the off-season conditioning program hard. I think he was at 298 before enrolling. He, Hunter Long, Justin Scott-Wesley, and Jay Rome all came in in good shape thanks to the off-season program.

And I heard DeBell put on significant good wieght, anyone know where his wieght is at right now?Around 300 lbs.

Chris Conley will get his fair share. The DBs will playJust my two centsCan't disagree with any of that. The db's will play, Mitchell on offense. Many of these will play on special teams. Not looking at to many redshirts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jddawg36 Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Dantzler honestly doesn't look much different in person than from his recruiting pictures. I saw all the new Olinemen riding their scooters last wednesday. Dantzler WILL definitely add depth to the rotation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was recruited at 265, did he.... or can he put on that much weight? Thats great if so- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats great if so-Yeah I remember seeing an interview with him a few months back where he was up to 280+. I think he'll definitely be at/around 300 by fall camp.

jddawg36 Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 The pictures I remember showed him with a good amount of baby fat. Has that changed?~~~He has slimmed down a bit. He was a moped when I saw him. Any time you get a guy that big on a moped they just look weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any time you get a guy that big on a moped they just look weird.I feel bad for the moped, especially if our O-Line is riding around on them. If they can make it through handling them, they can make it through anything (talking about the mopeds) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jddawg36 Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Ha. I saw Nathan Theus one afternoon riding his going uphill. Now Theus isn't as big as some of the other guys, but he still looked awkward on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats great if so-There have been multiple sources saying hes hovering around 300.Its not athleticism aor even weight any more, hes just got HORRIBLE technique that will get corrected in due time. Hopefully sooner than later cause he'll get thrashed against SEC DEs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calidawg Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 I dont care if he adds 30 lbs and 3 inches while increasing his agility and getting his 40 under 4.6, Friend still needs to spend lots of time w/ the kid before he gets serious snaps.
