Conroy Black DID NOT sign with Oregon St as Thought

but now might be leaning to Utah. I assume our Coaching Staff knows this? I thought OSU was a done deal. Might be some academic hangups and now doesn't graduate until May.

I like depth, but do we really need another db?

Haven't checked the roster, but you're kidding right?

At 6'1'' only 185 lbs. and at least 20 years of age means he must be quite slight of build or not spending much time in the weight room and possibly the class room. Sounds like a long shot.

I don't know anything about this kid's talent or speed or academics, but that size is more than good enough.

If he has an offer from Utah, I'd bet he has pretty good talent and speed, too.

Really? Secondary's already the strength of our defense and we have four star Ryan Clark as well as Gamble, Scott, Williams, and Vaifale already committed. How many guys can we stack back there to make up for our lack of talent up front?

we need big fast mean linebackers!

Wait a minute, you lost me right there....

It's absolutely a relative strength. Better?

How could you tell?

by **StallionsModelT** » Thu Jan 15, 2009 10:54 am

There really wasn't a "strength" on the defense this year. I never had faith on a 3rd down that we were actually going to get a stop.

Huh? There's nothing there to imply he doesn't spend much time in the weight room. That's actually pretty good size all around for the position. You heard of Champ Bailey? Combine measurables 6'1/2, 184. I'd say it's almost perfect.
