Ok so the chances aren't that great, he got an early offer from Texas and committed. Teammate of Demtrious Knox who we offered and the staff told Cox we were very interested in Gresham so an offer could be coming and he is open to visits. He said his parents are actually the ones looking at other schools to make sure they find the best fit for him.

I just wanted to make the thread because when was the last time we had a fullback! thread? Kid is a BEAST.

Would be nice to have a stud lead blocker! Haven't seen that in awhile and would give us some flexibility in the red zone.

Damn what a great video.. pretty exciting that we are recruiting a FB, but he looks like he could be a power running back. I wish there would have been some blocking in the video. What I did see what him shedding off tackles/running through people like a champion.

Man it would be great to get a visit from him. We could use him like OU uses Millard (aka the BEST PLAYER in college football according to OU fans) (but seriously, I think our offense could use a guy like that playing that type of role).

But I agree it doesn't look good. He sounds unsure whether he will take any visits at all.

LB or H-back possibly?

H-back, maybe ... but I don't think LB. With 2014 looking like it will be a small class, I don't think we'd take on a position-change project. We are already going after several top ILBs, and this guy doesn't fit the profile for OLB, so if we were to get him I think he'd stay on offense.

Fullback!? Damn I love it! Would love if he was Henry Hynoski 2.0.

Really hope he comes!

Do you mean Demetrius Knox? I think Cox was a safety that picked MSU last year.

Not sure we have a spot for him. We already have our power back, and if he's listed at 5'11", he's probably around 5'10" and that's not going to cut it for MLB in our system.

Up by three with 9 minutes to go. ND goes on a 23 play power drive WITH A FULLBACK flattening the MLB play after play..
What's not to like about a 250# 5'9" fullback? Who runs a 4.6?
Of course, this is boring football ala Lou Holtz.
