I feel like he can be good at like four positions. Someone explain to me why the thought is OL and not DL? Not arguing. Just wondering.

Because we're stacked on the DL and thin on the OL.

Still, he'd make a beastly DE, and you can never have too many of those. His frame just isn't big enough to play OT and I honestly don't see the bulk to be a roadgrader at OG. With his quickness in space he could be an elite passrusher.

I am just sayin, he could easily get bigger and with that athleticism could be scary on that side.

Seems like if your depth wasn't a factor, he would be a DL.

Liggins is an NFL player at at least 5 or 6 positions. Minimum.

I have faith that he will find a spot and excel. He is an athlete and if he continues with the strength and conditioning program he will find a spot.

This. Right now, if we have a guy that is a 7/10 OT/OG or a 9/10 DE, he's going to be playing OL. It sucks, but it's the price we paid by hiring Nutt.

he is a large human being. jesus christ... I wish he could have came to LSU. I really liked his film from HS.

as a goal line QB, he's going to be a force.

Would be kinda of funny if he became a OG or OT and moved off the line to QB in goal line situations.

As a QB, he looks like he should be playing in the SWAC

Seems like a lot of people don't realize he was playing at AT LEAST 260 during his senior season in high school.

Yeah he was actually 270lbs his senior year and still elusive. You could tell he had lost some of the speed from his junior season where he played around 250lbs. My old high school(hence the name I've had since hs DORESrules) still won state both years.

He isn't as fat as some think. He's just freaking big. Its definitely not all muscle of course but he is just a big dude.

I don't think he is a good fit for the DL because he isn't physical enough in my opinion to play on the DL. They attempted in JC but he was moved to QB a couple games into the season. As a matter of fact to give a example of how much of a athlete he is. He was told two days before a game that he wouldn't play on the DL but would play QB. He threw two touchdowns that game on a day of practice.
