Nice pick up over the weekend for Pittman

Only 270 seems a little light for Bert's normal OL.

Probably a good run blocker though based on Arky offering and accepting his commitment.

Is a he LT or RT at the next level. Congrats on the pickup
He must be the real deal for Bert to offer/accept.

He's a highschool DE/TE that just keeps growing. Incredible athleticism for his frame, will be a good one

If Pittman wants him, he's 100% a take. Nice get.

He's a project in the sense that he still has to learn how to play the position, but hes got the body and mind to make a lot of money for a long time.

Huge get for the #Hogs. OL Kellen Diesch had offers from Texas, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, Oregon, basically could've named his school.

Sounds like a redshirt candidate for weight. Hogs won't have any immediate OL needs will they? IIRC they're pretty young

Yeah he won't be asked to play as a FR. The coaching staff is in love with this kids potential. Best case scenario, he turns out to be an insanely athletic OT. Worst case scenario they use him as a blocking TE like they did last year and in the past elsewhere with other OL. Either way he fits very well in to what they like to do sting this system.

Hoping from here on out that we can RS every offensive and defensive linemen (unless they are just too freaking good.)

Our last project on the Offensive Line was Dan Skipper.

Latest word is that Bama is making a big move here. It will be interesting to see if he sticks with the Hogs if Bama and some of the other programs come after him hard. I know he's completely blowing up right now. Good find by Pittman. Supposedly Cristobal really likes him a lot and he's jumped up to #2 on Bama's OT board of remaining guys out there behind only Greg Little.

He committed after Bama offer. We will see what happens but his parents love the coaching staff at Arkansas from what has been mentioned

Of course Cristobal loves a guy that Sam Pittman got to commit.

Based on what Bama's done in the last 3 OL classes, I'd say everyone should pay some attention to ANYONE that Cristobal values. Bama's OL in the next few years will be ridiculous.
