Man, we do really get all the talent out of Texas. Darn. ;) :D jk




But seriously. Looks good and you are right that he needs to bulk upa bit, but he has another season of high school to do that.

That's awesome! I love getting good linemen. And they normally put on some bulk senior year and their first year at OU. They start trying to bulk up for college, plus they naturally begin to fill out more to their frames as they age.

OL is the easiest position to bulk up, mainly because the guys are big anyway and their frames support more weight. Smitty will put some meat on those bones though. Good pick up!

[SoonerofAlabama]

Okay, espn lists him as 275 lbs. So, I don't understand if he really needs to bulk up or if he just needs to put on some more weight.

So, we didn't get Boehm but we get Mcgee. Awesome job.

I just saw the same thing...scout has him at 260 so they are all different. No matter what he weighs now, it wont matter when he gets to campus, if his weight is a big issue, Smitty will take care of it. Some guys are good playing at the lower weight, quick o-lineman are a great asset.

Scout has him at Center AND Guard:

He is FAST for a guy that big! 4.85 40!

To me, this is a huge get. If you can have a rock solid line you can run the ball, pass and protect your QB. You can have the best QB, RB and receiver corp, but it means nothing if you don't have time. I hope he can live up to the hype.

[TahoeSOONER]

This class is looking legit.

[northspeter]

he's been a basketball player all through high school... he's gonna skip hoops his senior year, so he'll naturally add weight...

Holy Crap! 4.85, even if it's biased, is fast as hell. I can see some good old fashioned wishbone dreaming coming on.

he runs as fast a forty as i do...im 22 and weigh 195 lbs... :O

I heard on the radio we offered him at camp a year or so ago.

The way this kid looks on paper, OU should be sending his parents to Sandals, buying the champagne and putting on the Barry White CDs.

In theory of course, right?



We don't want any NCAA violations.

[KantoSooner]

In theory of course.

On the other hand, it does put one in mind of the old joke about Tom Osbourne having a heart attack. What happened? someone asked. He heard Mrs. Selmon was pregnant again.

[Herr Scholz]

Good pickup. You guys going to get Kiel and DGB?

[RUSH LIMBAUGH is my clone!]

Good pickup. You guys going to get Kiel and DGB?Both were expected to announce over a week ago. Now, nobody is claiming to know what either is thinking.

[SoonerofAlabama]

Oh, they are just making sure they are making the right decision.

[KantoSooner]

Picking up a nice guard can't hurt in recruiting a QB. They like to keep their shirts clean and all.
