You know 17 year olds aren’t toddlers right? When an adult still needs to learn how to use their body we generally call this “uncoordinated”


I saw it first hand with Raekwon

Guy had no idea how to use his body in high school despite towering over everyone else. And his high school teammate, that signed with Rutgers, dominated in high school while Raekwon was passive and not nearly as productive.

Raekwon was an animal in high school, not sure what you were watching but he had all of the traits of someone who was going to be a star at Alabama. He was at a disadvantage and had a legitimate excuse of being almost 6’8” and most kids who are that tall being late bloomers and still looked like a beast.

I’ll stand by this just like I did with Sopsher while a portion of the board gasses him up because they think it’s going to somehow help us in recruiting. The staff absolutely has to take a chance on Dom because we desperately need DT’s and he has potential, but not everyone has the ability to become technically elite at their sport. His film is terrible and it’s basically 3 minutes of him running straight into 190 pound 2A linemen, no lateral movement, no technique at all whatsoever, looks soft and stiff, etc. It’s just not elite college player film.
