Head scratcher here. He’s physically (size wise) ready to play right now. I don’t know why we haven’t thrown our hat in the ring.

Odd.

I am sure the 5.6 forty time has something to do with it but no one else seems scared off.

and we never offered this kid either? WTF? I would offer just on size alone. Then throw in he plays at one of the best programs in state and coached by the great DL.

Will be interesting to see if the new staff likes him. Had heard from a pretty knowledgeable source that his agility is very poor. So he's not going to fit into many systems in CFB if that is in fact the case.

I've heard that,

Then I figure that if the Penn State and Okie State offers are legit he is a good enough prospect for us to go after.

Would probably be a good guard in the Air Raid offense.

I watched this guy against RV's Oregon-bound DE Isaac Townsend and he got beat repeatedly outside by Townsend and also had a really hard time getting hand placement. Townsend is 6'5" - 6'6", 245 and very long though. He was playing RT mostly and looked but pretty good as an inside run blocker. That said, RV's DT's couldn't have been more than 200# and 5'11". I'd be worried about this kid's feet at the next level unless you run a straight up zone blocking scheme inside at guard.

That is exactly in line with every report I have read or heard. Basically a big dude who can be an effective road grader on the inside for a system that doesn't ask him to do much in space or on the move -- once he's learned college level technique.

I never felt he was a great fit for what CU is trying to do. Who knows with the new coach, though.

He certainly has the size but unless he has the feet that size doesn't help much. He looks better than some of the "developmental" guys we have taken in the past but you rarely can make big improvements in quickness and mobility.

I would want them to offer Nugent first who may be too short but has good enough feet for Stanford to take his commitment.

Nugent would be a great Center at this level. I like just about everything about him at Center (including his heigth). Good hands, quick feet, strong base and upper body and smart enough to get into Stanford.

As expected, looks like he signed with the corn.

Edit- lost track of the supporting tweet, but here it is-
