Jaimes & Hunter Miller put on 50 lbs and Sichterman put on 40 (supposedly) I see our long snapper has been slacking... didn't put on a single pound. Quote Link to comment
Scarlet Overkill Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 How big is too big? I remember us moving from B12 to B1G -- and it seemed like all we did was bulk up and become 10x slower. Someone please put my mind at ease that we're not just bulking up for the sake of it. Quote Link to comment

Did you forget your meds today? I don't take any, but maybe i should start. ha. I know it sounds foolish, even as i say it, but i am still concerned cuz it happened to us before. 10 minutes ago, Mavric said: Is Lightbourn trying to be the Jared Lorenzen of kickers?

One thing to consider is that the changes are compared to last year's roster. Some of the biggest weight increases were from younger guys who were in their first year last year. Guys like Jaylin Bradley, Tyjon Lindsey, Brendan Jaimes, Austin Allen fall into this catergory. I am sure they gained weight on their own last fall, and added to that with Duval's S&C program. I liked how the D-linemen all gained weight. They got pushed around too much last season. Plus, it looks like the o-linemen put on considerable weight, too. When the S&C staff is working with young guys who are now weight training and eating properly, it's not hard to put on good weight (muscle). Quote Link to comment

I think we can rest assured we're ok. I think this could potentially be an advantage for us. All the instate kids getting started early with Gibbie would speed development tremendously.

This is the first time in over 15 years that we sit on the precipice of a season and we can come to a site like this and no one is fighting. Everyone is on the same team. So, yeah, I'm drinking that up. I don't know what to expect because I've never seen a transition this smooth. That's exciting to me. 5 Quote Link to comment
