This guy is a Filthy Animal in practice! First team OL cannot stop him. Can't even contain him!

Yes, still overweight. 372# with target of 360# in a couple of weeks, and still the fastest DT out there.

Players compares him to Ndamukong Suh.

Hopefully will be cleared by the time we play Auburn/Florida. If so, he WILL NOT redshirt!

Holy god, he is 372 lbs right now? He could play both DT spots at the same time. Didn't he get recruited at around 330-340?

He DESTROYED in the Army Bowl practices. I remember seeing highlights. Hopefully it translates to the field. Look forward to seeing him get on the field whenever it may be

And grass is green until it dies. Then it turns brown. Are you attempting to be a clown? When and if he plays, he will be great. Be patient young grass hopper.

I just can't see a guy carrying that sort of weight playing any appreciable amount of snaps. What's the heaviest guy we've had who has played on the defensive line?

Sounds like he may be a Terrence Cody clone..

How about Trey Lealaimatafao ?
He's back practicing now. Charles Hannigriff said he was looking very good before he injured his arm .

He's that big and can still dunk a basketball. He may be the biggest freak on our team.

When our overrated OL is used to only having to block guys like Bain and Gilmore, I'm sure Valentine wakes them up a little.

Sorry to be "that guy," but who the frick are you? Not flaming. Serious question.
Eta: The things you have spoken here have given us some hope and great cheer for possible things to come, but are you merely talking out of your arse? That is the question, Sir.

Seeing how good Godchaux looks on the field, I don't doubt you for a second. We need this big hefty fella on the field ASAP!

Has there been an update on the Valentine situation since SI reported on it (were SI was so nice to associated Valentine's high school (Champagnat Catholic) with a used car dealership)?

If that isn't a nickname he already had, it isn't going to stick

I have a friend who plays DB for LSU and he said the exact same things about Valentine. Overweight but no one can move him. Very strong.

This is my first post here so TIFWIW. My friend gives me some info, but as a team they keep a lot inside the walls.
