DaiShon Neal Bulking Up

[Mavric]

Was listed at 240 in high school and 250 last year (redshirt)

Methinks someone can smell playing time at DE.

Good for him. He has an excellent opportunity to play this Fall. Think we will see a solid rotation at DE this year between A. Davis, Freedom, S. King, and Neal. I think we will be much more athletic at this position this fall and might be able to find a couple pass rushers at the position. This position will need to step up with the loss of VV and Collins. Just hope we can be consistent upfront with that many young guys setting the edge of your defense.

Would love to see more rotation this year and let him have a crack at turning some heads....figuratively and literally.

Between him and Alex Davis I'm hoping for big things

Honestly if we get Williams back.. a D-Line of Freedom, Williams, McMullen, Davis/Neal is pretty athletic and solid

ahhhhhhh...but experience is the name of the game.

I expect to see Freedom, Williams, Maurice, McMullen - with Davis behind Freedom and Neal behind McMullen. Also, could see Carlos Davis overtaking Maurice by seasons end.

The pic of him and two teammates during the bowl game trip, he looked thick.

And how does one gain experience?

Maurice looked damn good when he was healthy this year.... I wouldn't look for anyone to overtake him if he remains healthy. I think he'll be our best D-lineman in 2016.

You don't. You have to be born with it.

Well sh#t

No offense to Gangwish, McMullen, or Dzuris but they were about as slow as some teams defensive tackles. Would be nice to get some speed out there.

Agreed. Surprised with the lack of confidence in him.

Completely forgot about Maurice. I expect big things if they're able to move McMullen inside though
