Being treated like a king at UofH is equivalent to being treated like a preferred walk on at LSU. Houston is a commuter school. There is no culture. It's in a big city with pro teams and a disparate populace so you get very little attention in the media.

If he is as good as expected, he will dominate and be an early round draft pick. But no big time games, no high quality opponents, no prime time, no CFB Playoff hopes, no rabid fan base, no media attention, no sports science and nutrition, no Tommy Moffitt, no Ed Orgeron...in short, he is selling himself massively short.

What's the deal with Willie Allen? Sounds like y'all feel like he's overrated. Is there any interest?

I hate to break it to you, but coach moffitt does not have a magic wand that other d1 S&C coaches arent privy to. It's not rocket science. And nfl scouts don't base their evaluations on media coverage.

And to stay comfortable too. One day he won't have his brother and HS coaches to hold his hand. Well at least his HS coaches

Didn't know that.
