BK Spring Ball Opening Presser Notes

[Ironman8]

Prosise cross-training at WR and S

 

[BleedBlueGold]

Shumate is strictly a safety now.

Thinking Shumate at SS and Farley at FS?

Prosise cross-training at WR and S

Yo...didn't see that one

 

[Irish Houstonian]

Harrell up to 305 lbs (gain of 19)
Hanratty up to 309 (up 10)
Hounshell up to 275 (up 20)
Councell up to 248 (up 16)
Werewolf up to 248 (up 13)

These guys better watch out -- sometimes winter training weight is not all good weight...

Didn't most think he'd cross train at LB if anything?

Interdesting.

 

[irishknight35]

BK-the first thing we have to do is find a center, then worry about guard.

Interdesting.

Was a highly praised scout team WR last year.

 

[BleedBlueGold]

Was a highly praised scout team WR last year.

Glanced at his thread and there's talk of him practicing at the DOG and even taking the team photo with the other LB's. I'm not doubting/questioning the switch to WR. It just caught me off guard, I guess.

 

[Ironman8]

Specifically mentioned Lo Wood, Jarrett Grace, and Tyler Stockton as leaders on defense.

This is why they brought him back. Excellent teammate.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

Was a highly praised scout team WR last year.

Kid was a stud at WR and Safety in high school. Many believed (including myself) that he could end up at WR.

The first thing we have to do is find a football, then worry about helmets

Grace as a leader is interesting considering his lack of playing time. I suppose it comes with the position?

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

Koyack at 260. Damn.
Niklas at 255
Welch 244
Heuerman 222
Brooks 222

 

[greyhammer90]

Koyack at 260. Damn.

But does he have the potential to get bigger?

Exactly. I'm happy that he decided to come back considering who could have been a starter at a mid level D1 program.

That would be my guess, but it's not like Wood and Stockton have ever played much either. So, I guess it's probably more about all being veterans and have a strong work ethic/locker room presence.

But, will he be able to help out the basketball team in 2013-2014?

How many reps at 225??? If there's ever a telling stat for football team success...it's definitely how much a kicker weighs and how jacked he is.

 

[Ironman8]

Utupo at 281?!?!?

Where'd that come from haha

sounds like he's on the dline now? I might have missed it if BK mentioned it earlier.

 

[dublinirish]

Nationally regarderd programs Gunner is considering. A pretty long list, ND gave Gunner some leeway to find a good destination.

BK - we think a lot of Jarron Jones at DL -- we think he'll be a player for us.

 

[FLDomer]

I hope all this weight gain doesnt translate into speed loss...

BK -- we need four scholarship QB's on the roster at all times.... five is a lot of quaterbacks - depends on the guy though.

He was moved to the dline either spring or fall camp 2012.
