I'm not an offensive line expert, but he seems to have outstanding technique.

Need better technique securing the football. But also, why is he carrying the football.

O'Boyle recruiting.

O'Boyle recruiting.

I lost count of how many times he drove a guy completely off the screen… miles away from the play… He blocks like he loves blocking….

At 6’6” 270, the way he moves…. Just a few more pounds on that huge frame and he’s a beast of an OT. Barely even a project.

 

[El Gringo]

what was missing was any pass blocking, which makes sense since he was mostly (always?) lined up at TE. Anyone recall how long it took Solder or Berti to make the change?

He was a TE that basically played as a 6th OL. Teams are recruiting him as an OT. I would guess the plan is to either use him situationally as a big inline TE or redshirt him for a season while he gains weight in a P5 strength program, then let him compete at OT.

Just picked up an LSU offer as well, but has a lot of CU related likes on socials and is following a lot of staff members and even Talan Chandler. I really want to land Gilbreath.

 

[Buffnik]

This would help a ton.

He is visiting Arizone this weekend, LSU next weekend, Miss St snd NC State later in the month. It isn’t clear if he if he will be a fall or winter enrollee but it looks like summer/fall.

Seems pretty clear he’s a developmental transfer given that he needs to add 40+ pounds.
