    And the JUCO transfer Herman, 6’8” 370. Would be a great set of bookends if they progress as the coaches anticipate.

    In his pressers and interviews, you can hear Nape talk in terms of specific numbers regarding a player’s measurables when someone asks a question. Like Bama, this coaching staff is very calculated in who they think have the height/weight/length(wingspan)/speed/vert to play their respective positions. I think the photo shoot is a way to measure players and vet them during the recruiting visit.

    Was tougher this year. Aside from LSU (and a big maybe for Utah), all of those above are Tier 2 teams.

    I think Waites and Herman would be quicker and better if they lost 15-20 pounds each. 370 even at 6’8” is a little too much imo.

    Yes, we were hanging out with Vandy conference record wise and they are basically Tier 3.

    None of those steams strike fear in the top teams.

    I appreciate all the input y’all. It seems the consensus is that O'Cyrus is gone and Gouraige is probably gone. Who do we think takes over at those two spots?

    Jump rope will be their best friend. They need quick feet to play OT.
