Good looking roster to be picked last in the west*

Surprises: D.Thomas 5-9 188; A.Murphy 6-0 230; D.Lee 6-1 230; Jordan Thomas (TE) 6-5 295

C.Thomas 6-5 313; Simmons 6-4 310;

 

[Drebin]

We do have some serious talent on the defensive side of the ball. 2017 may be the BIG year but we should be ok this year too.

 

[coach66]

I agree, 2017 could be a big year. There is some talent on this team.

things I've noticed. No Deontae Evans. Nick Gibson still with 21. Simmons is 310. He's not playing DE in a 4-3. J Thomas is a clone of Liggins in seems (but hopefully more talented) making D Jones the second smallest TE at 250+. Justin Johnson is playing WR either at his size.

Story on Evans transfer

[KeyserSoze1999]

Well...17.

I was concerned about Dontea Jones being too fat to be a WR (250 lbs.) and now Jordan Thomas might be too fat to be a TE (295 lbs.)**

 

[121Josey]

That 17er. Who's going to take his place?

 

[RightOfCenter]

Did Dareuan Parker not make it? What about Hankerson? I just noticed those two from 2016 are not on there. I like the way our LBs look. Looks like T. Washington has put on some pounds.

 

[57stratdawg]

LB probably the deepest spot on the team. Talent at RB too, but OL might clip those wings.

 

[aTotal360]

Parker is suppose to make it. Nero Nelson and Hankerson are the only ones definitely not going to make it.

 

[KurtRambis4]

Just a quick overview,

it looks like our roster is comprised of, mostly (60%), Freshmans/RS Freshmans & So.

Only 9 guys returning with 3L experience, out of 106.

 

[coach66]

He made toast look like an all american*

[SyonaraStanz]

Where did Nero end up? I'm not surprised. A co-worker knows him and told me months ago it'd be shocking if he got to State.

 

[CochiseCowbell]

3L? Letters?

 

[RightOfCenter]

Was Nick Bell #36?

 

[CochiseCowbell]

Was Nick Bell #36?

Yes.

 

[KurtRambis4]

Yes*
