Body like Tarzan, game like ?

Those looks averaged 400 receiving yards and 4-1/2 TDs a year.

I dunno. That Calvin Johnson fellow has always been one of DK's primary comps, and he ran a 4.3 while weighing in at 238 at 6'5" at the 2007 combine, and those tend to be pretty official measurables


LOL

What does Calvin Johnson have to do with Metcalf?

Because Longo didn't know how to run an offense. If he didn't have Metcalf running jump ball routes down the sideline he had them just running around trying to get open.

Literal quote from AJ Brown was they had plays called "get open" where they would run whatever route they wanted trying to get open. Now how is a QB supposed to be on the same page as his receiver when he has no idea what route he's going to run?

Seriously... I guess Longo must interview very well because he somehow caught on with Mack Brown?!?
His offensive scheme is novel but incredibly elementary and stupid.

I should have ben suspicious when the local radio guy, Bounds, starting raving about Longo and what a star he was going to be. That guy couldn't scratch his arse with a handful of fish hooks

Just watch some of his film. It's not his fault Longo only let him run go's. Honestly I've never seen someone with his ability in person.

Meh, just to prove I can be objective about Ole Miss, I've long thought that DK Metcalf was a really great receiver (their best receiver, in my opinion) and that both he and Lodge would be drafted higher and have better pro careers than AJ Brown.

It's not his fault that he got shite for coaching up there.

Managed to throw for 290 yards against Ole Miss, but maybe that says more about your defense

What a physical specimen. Even crazier I bet he has a 10" to 12" anaconda in those pants.

I know most people are for open PED use, but maybe we wouldn’t have such a problem with players killing each other and needing constant rule changes for player safety if we went back to a more naturally developed athelete and took out all the roided out freaks.

DK certainly looks juiced up. But, his father was an NFL O-lineman and he's been working out his entire life. Genetics go a lonnnng way

I'd take Brown over Metcalf without a doubt. Metcalf had the one long catch against Bama, then disappeared the rest of the game. He had 3 catches for 37 against LSU. Metcalf strikes me as a workout warrior.

meh, my only concern would be durability. Metcalf seems pretty brittle for such a big guy

Don't remember which interview this was from but AJ basically called out Longo for the crap plays.

Dang. I remember joking with Saskwatch about Longo only having 12 plays, but I had no idea it was this dire. Free route? Get open?
