DJ Dallas added weight

[MULVEY]

Hey, I was just relieved to hear he was dating Dugans' daughter. DeeJay always seemed like a *** guy to me in interviews.

You think DJ is eating bad?

How do you think a person gets fat?

Calories in/consumed and calories out/burned

He is a D1 athelrte in a team sport I’m positive Gus has him doing drills like everyone else.

But if he’s killing a whole pizza, Coke’s, and eating some chips/cookies while playing video games it doesn’t matter how many sprints/ weights you lifted that day.. you consumed more than you burned off

Hopefully DJ uses this as a wake up call.

 

[TexasCane90]

That’s true. But I think Gus may set the benchmarks … I really don’t know.

But when kids are NOT strong or are NOT quick then that falls squarely on the S&C coach. And athletes should never gain weight at speed and quickness’ expense.

I agree completely DJs game was about being a change of pace quick back out of the back field... him thinking in his head turning into the Jerome “the bus” Bettis would be a good idea

I think the team is pretty well built we defiantly don’t have too much trouble on the defensive side of the ball... the OLines problem is straight technique

Surprised Robert Burns at this point hasn't gotten any opportunities.

 

[Salt]

He gained the added weight because he was going to be used more as a rb than last year, but then this took away his swiss army knife utility which was his biggest asset imo. In that capacity he should have been getting 8-10 touches per game in wildcat, slot, wr, punt returns. We have enough of a current stable of backs not to use him almost exclusively back there like we have this season.

 

[CaneDog66]

Very surprised Burns hasn’t gotten love also. At this point we need a bruising back, the OL gets no push so our only hope is to get a RB who can create on his own.

He also could get fat by just eating brown rice and chicken assuming he eats enough of it.

I remember when duke had his fumble problem for like 2 or 3 games..threads like these are a microcosm of the stupidity that is in our fan base..DJ came as a ATH QB in HS Who was dynamic at that level as a runner. He was put at WR because we were thin in camp at WR his fresh year. When walton went down we needed a kid who can fill in that RB room. Dallas is RUNNING BACK at the college level. He was always a thicker kid (pause). Looks like a guy who is just gonna have to go the extra mile when it comes to his managing weight(genetics-Tyrone moss). He was never a burner. Always quicker than fast. From year 1-2 he hasn’t loss any long speed tbh..The only reason a thread like this is being made is his had two bad games. Y’all are overreacting and now acting as if the kid can’t play at all..

 

[TemplarCane]

DJ should drop down to 210 and be the multi-purpose RB he should be.

You think he’s loss any quickness/speed from last season..I don’t..he was never fast

He looks around 2015-220 now.

 

[blackvern]

Whos the porster who said he was better with the weight? yes im talking to you

Yup! Calories in and calories out!

But I doubt he is following a body builders budget meal plan with chicken and rice

 

[Caneillac]

DeeJay has only had TWO bad games? LOL

6 games under 3.9 YPC (3.9, 3.3, 3.1)

3 games under 2.5 YPC (2.5, 2.4, 2.5)

Surely this is wrong. I was told our RB room is one of the top in the country.

 

[conebone69]

Pretty sure he posted a freshman/sophomore comparison photo earlier this year showing he was more ripped.

 

[DMoney]

Is the weight making him fumble?

He’s running fine. His YPC has gone up since last year. It’s the fumbles that are killing us.

 

[Cane6]

Out of all the things to complain about, you are complaining about DJ’s weight?

We really are the dumbest fanbase

Let’s focus our energy on Richt please

Chicken probably won't do it but rice can. Some people are just sensitive to carbs. I cut out carbs and lost almost 100 lbs. Ate a lot of chicken on the way down.
