    Watch MLB Grainer's head before the snap. He knows what is coming before the ball is snapped. It stood out when I was watching his film.

    So here's what i saw tonight.

    Robinson: Dominating Mauler with some nasty pancakes, loved what i saw from him on most plays. He's a bit raw with technique, and seems to be relying on pure strength and size( he's huge in person) a little too much. Overpowered defenders on pretty much every single play. Was flagged for a false start, looked like he just wasn't concentrating. seemed to get a little lazy towards the end. Needs a lot of work on pulling though. Seems to be a bit uncoordinated when he pulls from right to left side of the line, had some trouble kicking out the RE or OLB. One play he fell, causing his RB to get hit behind the line. That can be improved with good coaching. Overall, he's a dominate OG who we could use on our line, big and nasty, this ones a must get.


    Grainer: Name was always on the loud speaker. Ran for a TD and a crucial 3rd or 4th down, not sure which one. Freakishly athletic with good size, instincts and form tackling. Shoots the gap well. 3 of things he needs to work on . 1) over pursuit, on more than 4-5 plays, he took himself out of the play by running right past the ball carrier, he needs to play with more discipline. 2) Laziness when the ball is ran to an opposite side of the field (lined up at OLB a couple of times) Didn't run after the ball carrier, only jogged and showed little effort. 3) Too much of an attitude. He needs to settle down, constantly showing way too much frustration with officials, teammates, and opposing players. Guys a 15 yard personal foul waiting to happen. Was injured in the late 3rd, looked like a leg injury. overall though, with experience, will become a dominate MLB with good coaching. Needs to keep his composure in check, but it should come with maturity. Was really impressed with his read and react.

    Yes and I heard it will probably be without his family. Both his grandmother and father have been sick this week.

    I believe he is going to see a friend at A&M the following week and the the LSU/Bama game with his family once again.

    No one saw him with the other recruits before the game. Maybe he showed up late. His family were not going to make the trip. Maybe he missed and will reschedule when his family can go.

    I will see what the deal was.

    That is what I read. He missed the game and is planning to reschedule. Interesting. Trooper Taylor doing a good job recruiting him.
