Have I missed the obligatory Dixon's weight thread this season?

Or has JR's banishment sufficiently muted the discussion. I only mention it because I saw this while perusing BDJ's practice photos....

he's just a monster. I wouldn't guess a weight or body fat percentage, but he's just a big dude.

Does he have the kind of build where he can add a bunch of muscle mass and pretty well not miss a step with his speed?</p>

he does have a wide frame. And he's not short, you could definitely seem him being 240 and not being fat.</p>

that he was 239, and shooting for 235 or maybe 230, but that it was hard because Pollard was putting so much muscle on him. I can see it too- i actually thought he was a little fat last year. Looks pretty lean in that picture though. I guess we're all a little extra sensitive to it thanks to "Don-tae Su-ucks" (clap, clap; clap clap)

Are you talking about the one that someone posted in the "Dixon is fat" thread from last year? The one that pretty well showed him looking like he was chiseled out of granite?

The factual basis of the Dontae is fat rumor will probably strike fear in the pre-season for the next 10 years, no matter who the running back is.

This year, he looks pretty lean.
Last year, I never saw said picture. I thought he was a half step slower though. I don't exactly examine pictures of him often, but from what I remember he looks a little leaner this year.
I'm one who was never really satisfied with last year.. i realize our 1-dimensional offense had a lot to do with it, but I look for him to really break out this year. Baaah.

It's the countless number of program-killing rumors that surfaced during the Sherrill/Croom transition years that still linger in everyone's memory...

Dontae's obese
Burch had an apartment full of weed
Nick Turner just told Rockey to go f-himself and got kicked off the team
Calvin Wilson's grandmother pulled him out of school because he didn't play against Tulane
Darren Williams was just kicked off the team
Donovan Davis doesn't want to play football

And there were many more.
