Thx Andy, appreciate the material. I've made a few observations based on quotes you've shared. A) Loeffler "likes" quite a few players. It's funny to note, he uses that expression often. However, liking someone "a lot" is really taking it to the next level. B) Moorehead is a great interview. Easy talker, smooth criminal...paints a pretty clear picture of what he's thinking, doesn't pull punches. Quick thinker. I always enjoy his quotes...#choppinwood

I absolutely pray that Bucky can make it work at TE. If we can get that working, he'll be a DEADLY weapon for our offense that defenses will have nightmares trying to stop. Everything that is making some draft analysts drool about the prospects of LT3 playing TE in the NFL... they are all still true with Bucky. If this works, with his size, you will not be able to match up a CB on him and expect it to go well, which means you'll have to get one of your more athletic LBs to cover him, which will open up a lot of room inside for the likes of Marshawn Williams to absolutely devastate things up the gut.
Things are coming together for us. They're coming together quickly. If our OL plays at all competently over the next couple seasons, we WILL be rolling at a level we didn't think we could get to a lot quicker than we thought it would happen.

Ehhhh it was pretty clear when he came in that he had a lot of work to do as a QB. Say what you want about his consistency, but Logan knew how to throw a football and he could really spin it. Not saying there's no way that Bucky could have been a great QB, but I think Logan definitely had the advantage in arm talent. Now, when you take a less-arm-talented Thomas and have 4 years to develop him at any position you choose and you have a need of offensive playmakers around your QB.... Bucky to TE.

So is Andy Bitter reporting him at a mere 6'6" and 243 lbs as requested by the coaches? Because we all know he's at minimum 10' and 350 pounds at this point. And probably has his 40 time down to about 3.5 seconds.

Moorehead cracks me up. I'm pretty pumped to see what we can put together this spring in terms of offense.

Are there any DBs that are 7' tall in the NCAA?...
No?... They are doomed!
Not just 7' tall.... 7' tall and able to arm tackle an ox.
I'm picturing a scenarios like this, and getting a little giddy.
Great Flick, RIP Andre!
I was just thinking that perhaps the staff learned from the great Logan experiment and Bucky is the benefactor.
(I'm on team LT for QB, by the way.)

This Wisconsin will let us borrow this phrase for our 14'4" TE/WR/QB/SE/C/G/T/RB?
oh my god
She can teach me how to Bucky any day of the week!
...I'm taking a chance here that "Bucky" ends up being something I enjoy.
Bucky gettin lucky

I can't wait for LOLUVa to be "Bucky Ball'd!"
Bucky Ball on offense and a Fullerene on defense.
Bucky will make sure that the 10 yrs beat down of the school next door continues .
I wish Bucky had a few brothers to continue the family tradition.
