Cool..I hope he plays as big as his measurements!

[MojoRisen]

He is a converted QB like JO John - He has some work to do self admitted on blocking so may redshirt this year.

Big though - what we like.

[stoopified]

Interesting project

[Curly Bill]

I hope he can catch better than Joe John. :P

[JLEW1818]

you leave JJ alone!

[Curly Bill]

JJ was not very good at catching the ball in a consistent manner is all I'm saying. :D

[Collier11]

JJ wasnt consistent at much except for being inconsistent

[Sabanball]

Nice pickup. With this guy you won't need Brian Vogler.;)

JJ was not very good at catching the ball in a consistent manner is all I'm saying. :D

Agreed. JJ was incredibly overrated. Further, couldn't make the big catch in the clutch or anything with any degree of difficulty....i.e. Colorado game in Boulder, bowl game against Oregon when his "catch" was overturned by replay.

Also a weak blocker. Yes, he's got that one highlight where he mows a guy down on a blindside block. But the measure of a good blocker is what you do the other 95% of the time when the other guy sees you coming...i.e. Peyton Hillis.

[JLEW1818]

i don't think he was overrated ??? he was just our Tight End

[SoonersEnFuego]

Unless this guy just grew an inch this year, he's 6'6", but still....freaking huge.
