no_name_needed_2001 Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Did you see him throw down Castille with one swipe of his arm? Incredible! Quote Link to comment
Hunter94 Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 All Big 12 for sure...,maybe more. listening to him talk after the game tells me all i need to know....this kid is a class act! he will be playing on Sundays next year! Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 He is an absolute stud and a great person from what I've heard. Great to have him back for another season and here's to causing carnage on the field. Quote Link to comment

Red-D-Rail Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Suh will have a huge year even with all the double teams he will see. I'm so glad he didn't go NFL. Quote Link to comment
papersun87 Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 I'm glad he didn't play too much today . . . can't risk an injury on a guy that important. Seriously, maybe he should have had a green jersey on. Quote Link to comment

Oldschool Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 We had the best tickets of our lives to the spring game (50 yard line, 12 rows up), and my wife and I were amazed that Suh spent at least 30 minutes in the 3rd and 4th quarter signing autographs for people. Not only is he a stud on the field, he seems to be a great guy when he's on the sideline too. Quote Link to comment
JTrain Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Suh is about as likable a guy as you'll ever find. He's one of my favorite players on the team, and probably the most talented too. That being said, I can't help but think Suh is a bit overrated. He's certainly one of the best defensive tackles in the Big 12, but I don't see him as an All-American, or a front-runner for the Outland or Lombardi. I think the absolute best-of-the-best type DTs are the ones that demand a double team on every single play (unless maybe they're matched against an All-American caliber guard or center). Suh will certainly get a good amount of double teams this year I'm sure, because he's the best of our D-linemen hands down, but I have seen a few too many times where he gets stood up by a single O-lineman and isn't able to get a good push or get off the block. Even in the spring game highlights, I saw several times where a single one of our linemen held him pretty much in place. And with all due respect, we don't have any All-American type O-linemen. His biggest strength might be his freakish quickness for a 300-pounder, and he will get off the line so quickly that lineman have trouble getting a good block on him, but when they do, he's not as disruptive as the best of the best, in my opinion. I hope my assessment's off, and he's the all-world player that most people believe he is, but for now I'll refrain from putting him on the level of Rich Glover or Jason Peter. Quote Link to comment
newenglandhusker Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 I don't know that people are quite putting him on that level yet... Quote Link to comment
JTrain Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 I don't know that people are quite putting him on that level yet... Well, one of the radio guys (Sharpe or Fiala) said he expected him to be a serious contender for the Outland. A DT only wins the Outland about once every five years, so that is some insanely high praise. I've also heard fans say they expect him to be a top 10 NFL draft pick, which even Jason Peter and Rich Glover were not. Don't get me wrong, I hope they are all right and Suh turns out to be one of our best defensive linemen ever. Quote Link to comment
newenglandhusker Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Well...realistically I would agree with you. I'd be interested to see if the fans that said he would be a Top 10 really knew what they were talking about. Quote Link to comment
