Yep he's a JUCO. Dec. grad which means he should....SHOULD, be here in Jan. This would be a nice pickup at a spot, another then Suh, is iffy next year.....

 

[gamecocks]

Defintely would fit a position of need. Hopefully he likes what he sees and commits to being "N" after this weekend.

Wow! That one is a big of a surprise since we need some O-linemen. Welcome Shukree! :bonez

It looks like Barfield was a going away present from Blake. I wonder who closed the deal?

Is he going to play DL or OL? His profile says he is a DT but we are in dire need of OL.

 

[mahoney]

We are not in dire need of ol. Our ol this year was serviceable. Next year we have 3 RS Fresh coming in and return the entire line (unless you consider Mann part of the line in which case we still return Byford). We need him at DT which is where he will play. We are losing our ENTIRE DL does not not constitute dire need?

 

[Alex 4.0]

careful mahoney, i got ripped for saying that a couple days ago. I said i thought a big time receiver at TE (Fleener/Amie) was something i wanted more than a OL this year.

I still think Burkes will be our OL for this class, and next year we already have two...

I think the coaches know what they need now, and they are doing an amazing job this year.... This and the first full class the coaches had have been awesome in terms of filling needs...
