Seems like he's managed to create a bit of buzz this preseason at returner and WR.

Thanks RLH. Searched earlier for a profile. Was going to post the same after seeing him on the rivals depth chart.

Staff has been hitting some home runs with the PWO's the last few years and he seems to add to that list.

But more importantly....he has the best profile pic on IE. Good stuff. Reps to you ResLife.

Did you see the block on his punt return (around the 1:20 range)? That kid got knocked unconscious!

If he is our returner we have problems and once again don't give a single shit about special teams

I am not trying to be disrespectful but this can't be the answer with the amount of explosive game changers we have

it's rivals depth chart, so wouldn't put to much stock in it just yet. he does run a 4.55 and looks to have great hands and good vision. we have a bunch of speedy guys, so I think this probably says more aboo0ut his talent, than crappy specials teams. not to worried if I have fuller, sanders, and this guy. we just to f'ing block.

I've heard him get mentioned as a legit player. Basically a faster Robby Toma.

Sampson said in an earlier podcast that he expects Finke to earn a scholarship at some point in his 4 years.

It's a given at this point. Someone always gets one because there's always one available but the question is will he get it and contribute at say a Robby Toma level?

I posted this in who's next 2017 a while ago. I invented it.

Yeah... I saw it. i checked the time stamp, it's official... You get da atta boy!

Reps were appropriately distributed.

Next question is why did YOU look at his 247 profile? I was checking the 4 sources to see if he was a rare :s::s: prospect.

I was just reading the timeline to see who visited for the Blue and Gold game and I saw it. Thought it was weird that it wasn't presented by the media.

IF it's what we think, there will probably be a photo op tomorrow where he's officially given the news on camera for PR. Then we'll get a weeks worth of Joe Schmidt tie-ins which may lead to the second great IE blackout in the past 4 months. Certain people here are one Joe Schmidt mention from going straight zombie.

He may end up starting in place of Hunter or Sanders due to his grasp of the offense.

I hope not. That would be pretty damning in regards to Torri. I might like CF in the return gamer if CJS is getting meaningful clock at the slot (so he doesn't get injured) but if they are playingy him because he's the best option I'd rather play Stepherson and McKinley and get them minutes. They are the near future of this team.

Torii and Aliz'e are the only two guarantees I see right now. i think everyone else is on platoon duty until the creme rises.

I kid. Forgot the italics, but it would be typical Of the last 5 years if he did.

The offense and defense are different animals! But at some point the only thing matters is whether you can play. The coaching staff isn't going to bench him if he's good enough considering our needs.

well deserved after the rave reviews we've heard throughout spring ball.
