Without knowing anything too specific about this guy (other than what's listed above), this seems like the type of dude we should be after - a big body who, if a numbers game dictates, might be able to flip from one line to the other (like .... this year.)

We ( Well I do ) want 12 to 14 BIG MEN this year. Yes he looks good and if he is quick - DT or DE if not super quick - OL.

Be a member of the Thundering HERD of MUSTANGS

BUS, I agree with your logic about loading up on big guys, but 12-14? Then you run into the problem of all of them graduating within a year of each other. I would think maybe 8-10 this year, and then make sure to re-stock next year. And the year after that. And the year after that. And every year.

I kind of disagreee.

I think we stock up NOW. We can red shirt some of these guys and spread them out a little.

We are in real need and the sooner we get bigger the sooner we consistantly WIN.

We are small and do not have depth. Bring in a herd and then red-shirt some.

I guess I'm for... Gett'en while the gett'en is good.

Yes we have other needs so that leaves 12 to 14 for other positions.

I agree. If they're talented, take them. Some will play, some will redshirt, some may transfer, flunk out, quit, get hurt. We need to be 3 deep at each position. Better to have too many than too little.

A few months ago, we had four quarterbacks. Now we have two. We're a sprained ankle away from having no backup.

Stock up.

Your logic comes through loud and clear, but don't say something like that!
