If I was the opposing teams coach I would tell the DL to hang on to his legs for dear life and when they start throwing flags for defensive holding I would to him to roll into him like a log and hope he trips and falls.
Those kids look like toddlers riding an elephant.

I live in Lexington, and have never lived in Eastern Kentucky, but let's not act like these D-Linemen Dotson is blocking in his videos are any more inferior that what we see Jedrick Wills blocking or we saw Landon Young blocking when he was in high school. Watched the highlights of him blocking Louisville Central players in the state title game and they all looked small compared to Dotson. That's what a 6'6" 300 pound OT looks like in high school. See the same size advantage as when I watched videos of Wills and Young playing at Lafayette.
Yeah, big kids with Div 1 bodies are going to look bigger than kids who are done playing after high school. Noting that fact is not a slam against Austin. He does his job well against his opponents. He won't see many small players in the SEC.
lol kid def likes to find some poor soul to plaster on the field. Like to see him work on his lower body strength. Completely over powers due to sheer size his opponents. Love to see how he does against an SEC DL.
Austin is a project in every sense of the word. You cant teach 6"6 310 with his athleticism. The coaches are banking on him learning technique
Not sure they even had weight programs in his day but Don Gullet broke Calvin Bird's Kentucky high school scoring record I believe, but alas, didn't continue, seems like he had a pretty good fast ball also.
I think Gullet may have scored about 60 points in a high school basketball game also. He was a superb athlete. One of Kentucky's finest ever.
Man could he throw as little as he was, like 5-11. But the rotator cuff thing got to him & cut his career short.
I agree! Its not like he has no foundation. Belfry just never throws. Schlarman with all the heat he has taken turned toth into an aa center and mosier could get drafted.
That's what I was thinking, he was blocking some undersized kids. I would like to see film where he takes on people his size
You will get the chance when he puts on that Kentucky uniform. He will line up against the SEC's best and with some excellent coaching and weight training should be more than capable of holding his own.
We have several kids from Ky on the team don't really see how being from Eastern ky makes you a better player than one from west ky.
