    I didn't know he was Worle's teammate. That should help. Isn't it hard to watch those highlights and not want him? He has a great motor and attacks the backfield. I saw another camp video with other elite recruits and he was one of the shortest guys out of he bunch. He is listed as 240lbs and 6'2". I would be surprised if he is actually that tall, unless he grew. The guy narrating the camp drills even comments that he doesn't look imposing, but is surprisingly good. Anyone can gain weight, and I think he has, judging by a more recent picture, but I don't see a big frame or the height to be a big lineman. The other question is will the added weight slow him down. I wish we had actual combine numbers on him.

    He is closer to 6'1..which doesnt matter to me, we have had some success with dt's that weren't the tallest.

    I agree that wouldn't be a problem if he were a DT. However, presently he is listed as a DE and listed at 240. Not too many DT's come in at 240-245. Sometimes they may start at around 265 and gradually work there way toward 300. This guy physically just seems to be a little small.

    reminds me a lot of Brandon Graham for Michigan. He came in at 6'2 250 and had a great career in the Big 10 even when the rest of his defense was awful.

    The most recent article I found says he is 270, FWIW.

    Well I was right, Moses backed out of the visit.

    Hall did also and he just switched his commitment from North Texas to UTEP.

    blem, why do you suppose Moses backed out?

    And Ambles, I guess his USC visit sold him uh?

    I just thought he was because he backed out once before and I don't see him leaving far from home. He had issues enrolling early and I am sure he is not going to try and make it more difficult on himself this late in the game.

    I think Ambles has been a silent since the visit.
