A few gifs of transfer EDGE Ovie Oghoufo

Seems very quick. May need to pack on a little muscle to face and SEC slate, but with our depth I think it is a solid pickup

Please do one of these threads for every transfer.

So I see from the first gif he has experience being held by an Alabama Olinemen, so I guess he will fit right in..

This is me just being critical of these gifs:

1st one
Alabama RT really wins the rep there, drives him way behind the QB, because coverage is good downfield he ends up with a coverage sack probably 4-5 seconds after ball is snapped...it was good he kept going at least though to get that coverage sack being moved behind the QB in the first place

2nd one
Nothing too fancy here, but he just bull rushes the TCU RT into the QB about the same time their LT is being pushed into the QB. Better pass rush than the 1st one as he gets to QB much quicker and collapsed the pocket there

3rd one
Perfect rip move to get to the inside of the Alabama LT and forces a quicker than wanted throw by QB

4th one
Stunt move that the center completely whiffed on, he did well to get to the QB but I would put that one on scheme as much as anything there with the center being way late to cover the inside


Ovie I think will play a decent bit this year as he has a good overall skillset but he doesnt seem to possess the typical big time pass rush skills we've seen from other EDGE players here the last several years. He's definitely no Ojulari, Perkins or Chaisson in terms of rushing the QB.

He'll get a chance to help close down that pocket, again, on those Bama uniforms this November....
Looks like a high-motor player.

It looks impressive, but is he SEC ready? He will probably need to get stronger and faster if he wants to make a real impact here.

I still think there is going to be some type of rotation at the Jack Position. I think Oghoufo and Perkins will get significant time there.

I expect the Coaches to use Perkins similar to how they did this year but a little more creative.
