No matter what I did I couldn't gain weight....not even in college. It just wouldn't happen for me. Metabolism....whatever...

Welcome to da club.

Yeah.. I fully anticipate that he'll be able to put on some weight... whether he can maintain it through a season is another question altogether.

Wasn't Roquan 230 or so his senior year?


That's probably correct. He was 236 going into the draft. Keep in mind that Roquan came in at 6'2"ish 207... and played sparsely his freshman year, looked promising his sophomore year (but wasn't the stud we saw in 2017 yet), and then exploded in 2017.

Could see Pappoe having a similar peak trajectory, but there are a lot of things that have to go right there. I think our staff is looking at Dean in addition to some of the guys on the roster and thinking "we need guys to plug into the middle yesterday".

Or he could become the next Trey Blackmon.

It's funny how people react to playing in season. I've seen some people gain a lot of weight during the season and some lose weight and can't get it back. Oddly enough...it is usually the guys that need to weight that lose it, and the guys that need to lose it gain.

Yeah, I was hoping Quay Walker would be that guy. I haven't heard a whole lot about him though. Has he played a lot, or are they looking at a red shirt year for him? It could be I just see Walker on the back of the jersey and think D'Andre, though.
