84HuskerLaw Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Assuming the ht and weight numbers are reasonably accurate overall, then I compute this class as being about an average of 6'-21/4" tall and weighing in at about 225lbs. That's pretty good considering the number of 'big' guys (linemen types) is just 6. I don't include TEs of course. These are incoming frosh and should easily be able to add a good 25 lbs of muscle and drop 20 lbs of body fat, making one lean mean bunch within the first year certainly. With a little growth, you could find a recruiting class of 6'-3" and 235 lbs in excellent shape. This is really about the size of the linemen in the 1971 team (or bigger frankly). Bigger and stronger certainly and hopefully they retain decent speed and quickness too. I think, overall, players today are much bigger but not faster or as quick, due in part to the size difference.

Touchdown Tommie Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Is there a lot out there about Chaffin? Big bodied receiver. If there is, sorry, just a little lazy to look! Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Tre Bryant's HS is called Christian Brothers College? That's odd. Quote Link to comment
Warrior10 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Is there a lot out there about Chaffin? Big bodied receiver. If there is, sorry, just a little lazy to look!I heard he hurt his hammy pretty bad during track. Quote Link to comment
