Since he just enrolled I was wondering what the experts think he have the highest upside, now that we got good choices on both sides of the ball in the trenches

 

[Jassid82]

I was hoping he could be the 1-tech but now that we have Dexter Jackson it’s not a dire need and we can let him play around at OG first to see if that is where he’s most comfortable. Nothing saying that he can’t switch over if that’s what he wants too. I would leave it up to him. Not like we need him this season anyway.

 

[BoxingRobes]

Your thinking is too narrow.

I was thinking he could line up as a WR ala Alejandro Villanueva while he was at Army.

 

[canes_aaron]

Seems like a Cristobal-special (don’t mean that in a bad way), which would lead me to think his future will be at OL. But what do I know

Don't even assign him a position until 2023.
Get him in the lab with Feld and eating right.
In fact, do this for all incoming freshmen.
Shave their heads, haze them, break them down, and then build them back up.

i think we need to play him at nose
just get him stronger and tell him to eat up two blockers every play

 

[Odysseus]

Definitely red **** season but he is already larger than Jordan Davis just needs to get as strong as possible

With Jackson,Moten and Haye we can afford to groom Cooper at RT where we've been lacking the last 5+ years.

Is he a take at the safety position for our Miami Hurricanes?

D'No is not convinced.

 

[24/7canes]

Hes looks to slow to play O-line and he seems much more aggressive on the defensive side of the ball. Think you can figure out where I would play him. JMO as always.

 

[westcoastcanes]

His film looks like striker to me, and you can't have enough of those.

I thought we stopped the whole head-shaving thing a while ago, thanks to Preston Prettyhair Parker...

 

[Goulds Cane]

I see field safety all the way

He's stated he wants to play RG. Cristobal has mentioned him playing 'both ways'. Ive noticed Cristobal doesn't immediately close the door, when recruiting, on kids wanting to try out other positions. To me, it looks like the staff projects him to be a DL, they're just waiting for him to realize it as well.

 

[DMoney]

We need size on both lines. If he really wants to play OL, let him play there until he proves he shouldn’t.

This. Throw him into the blender and see what happens. Just make sure you add a sizeable dose of HGH. We are sorely lacking any semblance of physicality on both lines. If the kid has his mind set on OL, give him a go. It's not like one position grouping is ahead of the other, we need help in both areas badly and immediately if not sooner.
