Thoughts

The summer enrollees of Jordan Coleman, Devin Coleman, and Nick Townsend all prove how college athletes on dedicated nutrition and strength programs can change their bodies. Townsend, who was running track in the spring, jumped 22 pounds from his NSD 25 listing. Devin Coleman dropped over 40 pounds. Jordan Coleman gained 13 pounds.

The changes aren’t limited to just summer enrollees.

Lance Jackson was listed at 276 on signing day and is now 254.

Rickey Stewart was 179 on signing day and is now 197.

Kade Phillips, Smith Orogbo, KJ Lacey, Jordan Coleman, Michael Terry III, and Zelus Hicks have all gained at least 10 pounds since their signing day listing.

There weren’t a ton of major five-pound or more changes from the current roster, but Jordon Johnson-Rubell’s drop was notable. That might entail more coverage responsibilities. Andre Cojoe gaining 15 pounds to land at 335 is continued evidence of the developmental track the coaches saw in him. He’s still a teenager.

All the spring window transfers look to have good measurements, namely Maraad Watson at 313 pounds.
