Good news is Burcham's injury was not that bad. Both will be fine IMO.

We have to get our recruits out of the scratch and dent bin.

Hardly... per Jone Jones' press conference today.

Also, I saw Gehrig (in person, eye-to-eye) for the first time today. I'm 6'4, and he's essentially the same height. Between him and Holleman (who is built like a linebacker), we have a couple of really impressive looking young receivers.

And Randolph is 6-5 if he tries him at WR.

I believe he is 6-5 even if he does not try him at WR. :D

Randolph will be spun down to LB. Needs a redshirt year to put on 15-20 pounds.

Do you not think he'll end up at WR (as JJ mentioned today)?


I am thinking he must have played WR in HS. He has the speed and would be a threat. We are already stacked at LB so outside receiver would be a place that he could get on the field quicker.

Like the frame of this kid (Randolph) but looked kinda slow on film. If he has great hands and body positioning...no me importa...but lets not get happy and throw 6-5 freshmen out there as receivers, just because they're 6-5

Fortunately that is a coaches decision and not a ponyfan posters decision.

Gehrig will be fine, small flap that needs scope. I am sure he will, and you would not be able to stop him, from being at spring ball.
He played with it all year.
