No, I'm questioning your assessment of all these good dlinemen when there were just as many good LBers and the best of either position is a linebacker(Dobbins).

No, we haven't. We run a 4-3 with a speedy undersized Lber as the SLB.

Are you going to start an internet fight with every poster on the board?

The_Architect has in fact provided many posts of substance and vmbplayer is generally a very productive member as well.

By the way, when everyone in the thread disagrees with you, it may be time to just let it go.

This guy to me seems to be about bringing a guy in who loves ISU because he grew up in Gilbert and being able to contribute to a position group that has been woefully inadequate the last few years. Which is fine because depth at that position is critical.

Edit: He was listed at the top of the DE depth chart going into spring ball at Wyoming.

You never know, there may some thought that he wants to get into coaching and they see him as a Graduate Assistant the year after that.

Disclaimer: I have no information on that, just a thought.

Ok but it is similar to a 4-2-5 with the undersized linebacker.

Im not discussing it further. But to say he cant gain 20 lbs is false, anyone can gain 20 lbs, but I am done discussing it.

That's his thing and it's always the same. He throws crap at the wall, which never sticks. Then gets called out by everyone, sometimes by equally terrible posters like Clones21. It's quite humorous.

I'm not convinced he's not just a good troll.

Yup thats me, I always post my opinion just like everyone else. Then there are guys like you that harass everything anyone says and add no opinion.

He could gain twenty pounds of fat if he just eats tons of crap constantly for a few months.

There is a lot of green between saying that you bet he will be 20-30 lbs. heavier and saying that he could gain 20 lbs. if the coaches want to put any type of weight on him, not just muscle. Do you really think this coaching staff would intentionally hang 10-20 lbs. of fat on a kid whose strength appears to be speed for his size?

Someone called this was going to happen a few months back and now I can't find the thread. Was it deleted?

Could be. I wasn't trying to suggest he won't see the field. I think he will. A projected starter this year for Wyoming which came off a 8 win season and a bowl appearance. And there losses were all pretty respectable.
