diet sure worked for Mike. I still don't know if it was more funny or pathetic that he actually bragged about gaining weight that way.

He'll gain some weight, but it's going to be hard for him.

Hey, Manute Bol played awhile in the NBA, right? He was a twig. Of course, he was about 8 inches taller than Swat, to.

Most teams have actual nutritionists. We do dumb **** like that, and wonder why we finish in the bottom of the SEC every year in football.

Our football program abslutely blows my mind- especially when we are successful at baseball and basketball. Yeah, both of those sports have done dumb things in the past to, but it seems like football takes the Lion's share.

If Jarvis adds 10 pounds it will be a miracle...as in the 3 seasons he has been at state he has barely reached 205
when he was 190 out of high school.

Can't even finish a burger from Wendy's. He might gain a pound or two - but I wouldn't expect anything more than that.</p>

he would get out of Starkville and find a top-notch sports athlete trainer-nutritionist that has worked with previous athletes. 15-20 lbs of muscle added could make him milliions of dollars in terms of being a lottery pick..If he doesn't gain any weight i would guess he would be a middle to late second round pick because power forwards in the nba would just abuse him and probably get him hurt.

of course those head exercises Barry uses could increase his head size by two hat sizes which could be a downside to this plan.

Seems like I read somewhere that his usual diet consists of skittles/starburst and soft drinks. That won't cut it. His future rests in the balance here, he'll still have a future in blocking shots but he'll get pushed around whether in the NCAA tourney, NBA or Italy/Greece if he doesn't bulk up a little.

I believe that was an eye witness report from our very own Bonedaddy.

You would think now that Momma Varnardo's home cookin' is now 15 minutes away in West Point he would have an easier time putting on some weight.
