I was glad the next week to see he still had his job, although of course he was only authorized to salute the camera. 😆

A decade on TKP and it's been time well spent.

Freeze this at the right frame, make a maroon silhouette of this, and throw it on a orange t-shirt. Please and thanks.

I need to see film, but Vice has a very good track record on undervalued OL.

Five star get after it 100 percent Juice Key-Playing. MAN

I happened to see this kid in person last year while at a game watching my friend's son and he stood out. I'm not a great evaluator of O-like talent, but I distinctly remember his feet/mobility in the run game stood out. He finished plays hard and seemed to give great effort. His pass-blocking would clearly need some refinement at the college level, but he is very athletic and seems to have all the skills if he puts in the work.

Vice seems to find o-line kids who have the right stuff mentally to develop so I feel good about this one!

I like the Oline that Vice has built, he get's guys that fit what he wants. If Vice likes him then I like him!

1-0 every week

BigSmoooooooth's picture BigSmoooooooth | 5 years 10 months # ^

Yep, Vice knows what he wants. He's probably our best recruiter.

With the youth still in the OL room, this class can join last years class as a developmental group.

2021 3-deep would look something like this:

LT: Darrisaw (Sr), Clements (Fr), Boone (Fr)
LG: Smith (Sr), Hanson (So), Moore (Fr)
C: Hoffman (Sr), Hudson (Jr), Goodner (Fr)
RG: Nester (Jr), Culver (Jr), Militecic (Fr)
RT: Tenuta (Jr), Dsanzi (Sr)

Hudson and Dsanzi would move around as necessary if Darrisaw and/or Hoffman forego eligibility.

But there is time for this class to develop. More pressure on next years class to be ready to play immediately.

I agree. But it seems like just a couple of seasons ago we were doubting him and felt like he may not be the guy....of course we didn't factor that he had none of his guys.

Impressive he had offers from Dartmouth, Penn and Rice.

Ms State and Colorado among others. Much better offer list than Darrisaw and look at him now. I trust Vice

Shouldn't be any issues with the NCAA claiming anomalous test scores, then.

Can't believe a guy with a name that sounds like "Cannon Boom" isn't a QB, but welcome!
