WHY, WHY, WHY... damnitt!!!! Is it slow footed, is it brick hands, is it cant learn the playbook, is it got a little NIL money and a little is enough and became lazy?????? I so wanted this kid to work out. he was a physical phenom. The type of player, if good, imposes impactful intimidation to the opposing DB's that look up at the massive 245lbs and wonder how they could possible cover that. He just never panned out. Couldn't get open? what is it? does anyone have a take on this young man. When I saw him catch a few of the catches he had last year I was impressed. He looked agile for a big receiver. Why was he not utilized or figured out? I cannot wrap my head around this one.South Carolina football WR announces transfer

Damn….he was the one dude I thought would shine this year. I didn’t read the article but it’s not his hands and it can’t be his leaping ability and he sure as hell ain’t slow or small, I just felt like he needed the ball thrown to him. Oh well
We've added quite a few bodies at the WR position and I think he'd fallen down in the rotation. We still have some roster cleaning out to do to reach the maximum number of scholarships we can keep. We'll see a few more transfer out real soon.
I mean, there was a reason he was where he was prior to here…. I guess it’s not a big head scratcher
Well, yeah, it's not like we're losing a 5* receiver. Fans were always stoked just because he was tall. Like I said, I hope he lands somewhere he can get regular playing time.
It isn't. A few of us spoke the truth about him. I wish him well....but at his size and reported speed....there were (multiple) reasons why Alabama and the like weren't knocking down his door. Will and can we find diamonds in the rough? Absolutely...and I think our program needs to mine for them. But, a 6'7 245 lb guy with 4.4ish straight line speed who can REALLY play would not have been where he was prior to USC in the first place.
He had some good measurables, but there were reasons he was FCS prior to coming here.
If those are the measurables then it has to be mental. it appears we have two studs in the stable in Wells at receiver and Reed at Safety. Reed will be Swearinger returns. mark my words. I watched his tape and he tackles through people.
Yeah, tons of juco guys have measurables, but measurables don't necessarily translate into ability to play.
