I hate to be the barer of bad news, but I'm pretty sure I played against Kevin Carr in the interhall league and he wasn't that great.

Two questions:
What is this doing in Kristen Saban's thread?

Is it possible Irish 2015 has potential?

I can help answer that for you, simple answer no. Unless there looking for a 6'1 230 pound og/dt thats not fast, can't jump high, and has little to no upper body strength then yes.

Those are good tangibles for a waterboy, though.

No, You're wrong Colonel Sanders!!

False. I played against him too, and we literally couldn't do a thing to stop him. They stuck him at D Tackle for a couple series, and our O-Line couldn't get a push to save their lives. It will be interesting to see how we use this guy--he's massive, not too quick, but just an overall solid ball player. Great walk on pickup.

Strong contrast from the previous report. Is it possible you guys played against him in different years or are you both talking about the '11 season?

Regardless, Elston and Diaco think he's worth a worth a walk-on slot. Whatever condition he's in now he's going to be slimmer, stronger, have been endurance, and maybe even be a bit quicker after 5 months of Longo's conditioning. He doesn't have to play like Zorich nor be able to jump over the Southern Cal line and sack Barkley in a single bound. His principal role as a walkon is another big body to work the first team OLine. If he works his way onto the field more power to him and the coaches who evaluated him. Live the dream.


Welcome to all the walkons who pay their own way, labor in obscurity, and get little or no recognition for their efforts.

I was on the o-line against him for Keenan. He did nothing against up and didn't even come close to a sack. He was better on the offensive line more because he could just literally take up space.
