Fills a huge gape we had last and this yr. Let's Markway grow into that blocking role too. Te room is night and day talent wise now... great addition

Will be overlooked by the star gazers, but he will be a big addition to the team this fall.

Fills a huge need.

TEs like this allow the OC to open up the playbook.

He's been quoted as saying he wants to get bigger and be an OL after this season. If he puts on 25-35 pounds he could be a great tackle

What's his classification? Is he a junior with 2 years left? From the highlights posted this guy has an engine on him and seems to take pride into slamming his opponents into the ground. Also gives LSU experience opposite of Taylor

He has 4 to play 3. I think it will take a couple of years for him to get right with his body and skills to be an OL, so he needs to redshirt one of the next two years. Play blocking TE this year and redshirt the next will give him the most potential playing time.

Prototype OL....the length of his arms in proportion to his body.

Not a flashy, pass catching TE, but I expect him to be a serious difference maker that will play a huge role if this year's team is to be as elite as we hope.


BK been looking for that big blocking TE for a while!

Dude is 6'6-270 according to the video. He's a blocking beast, I didn't watch all of the video, so, can he catch the ball too. It's not necessary with his awesome blocking, but it would be nice if he did both really well.
