You think he'll surpass Mick, or Carlos for NT with one month of fall camp? I would venture to say no, but I do think they'll be anxious for him to get up to speed. Once he does, Mick can get to a position that fits him more and Carlos will have the flexibility to either get some more rest at NT or rotate out to the edge. I wouldn't be surprised to see some "trial by fire" early on. 1 Quote Link to comment
ADS Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Mick is not a NT. If we want him to be he needs to put on some weight. Quote Link to comment
spurs1990 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Mick is not a NT. If we want him to be he needs to put on some weight. Listed at 290 at whatever point the weights were taken last year. That's about as big as we get weight wise with our current defensive linemen. Not to mention Riley said he was one of the first two names in his head for the position without including potential freshmen. I agree that he doesn't really fit the mold, but the current coaches are planning on him being there at this time. Quote Link to comment

I'm thinking more Wilfork than you are, I suppose. Quote Link to comment

SouthLincoln Husker Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Mick is not a NT. If we want him to be he needs to put on some weight.He is 290Yeah not big enough This was on this year's roster. He will probably be over 300 by fall. What is your source that says Diaco must have a 300+ NT? Quote Link to comment
In the Deed the Glory Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 I hope they find somebody other than Mick to play NG, because I feel like his skill set is perfect for the 3-4 as a DE. Quote Link to comment
