This kid came out like a Wrecking Ball but hasn't seen the field. I don't even think he knows it is green grass on the field.

Why? What happened? He is still the same size, albeit a little bigger, but why hasn't he played more???

He's only had one year. Give it time, he'll be great.

How did he come out like a wrecking ball exactly?

I saw him play in high school and I thought back then he was very over-hyped. The game I saw was St Paul's vs Mandeville. SPS killed Mandeville that night but Mandeville's center owned Mickey and literally took him out of the game. Of course Mandeville's center that night is currently a D2 All-American right now so needless to say he was a pretty good high school player.

Very overrated coming out of HS, much like the rest of St. Paul's team

He was one of the last guys to get a scholly offer in that class. I think we should put him at fullback.

Don't remember it like that

I remember it being a Tennessee/LSU battle and LSU won out late

He just doesn't fit our defense and never did. Hes a NG not a 3 tech. Doesnt use his strength well even though he's got unreal strength. We like DTs that can shoot the gaps and he can't do it.

Very short for a D1 player at his position. It would be very difficult for him to get his hands on an OL before they got to and controlled him. Maybe it will work out.

He walked him to the sideline? He ordered a sub to come in for him?
