    Of course, some people will say that he can't be any good, because he hasn't enough "STARZANDOFFERZ".
    I don't care so much about measurables. I think you can read WAY too much into that.

    What I like about his videos is that it clearly shows this kid is a hard nosed FOOTBALL player. He's not a sprinter and he's not a center in basketball, he's a football player, and this kid loves to hit.

    At the 1:10 mark in the video when they show his first interception I was hoping the WR wouldn't catch the ball because I didn't want Syrie to kill him. The kid can hit.

    Yes, you can read too much into "measurables". But while I'm not really worried about blazing speed, at a certain point however, "too slow" is "too slow", and players are just going to consistently be getting beaten to the corner, beaten deep, etc.

    Not saying that applies to Syrie, just a general statement.

    I will state again... YES you can EASILY grow an inch or 2 in college or between now and when he graduates from college. It happens all the time. Not saying he will, but it's not uncommon at all to not be done growing half way through your senior year of high school.
