My interview with Akheem Mesidor

[DMoney]

Great personality. He told me he’s down to 260.

 

[AUcane]

260!! Hope we get 2022 mesidor!

 

[3FW]

Agree. Super sleeper. Serious talent.

 

[Cribby]

**** shame what he was asked to do last year. Not as bad as Chick but still bad. I’m glad he’s down to his fighting weight. I expect a 22 bounce back season .

 

[JG13]

Sounds like a Paranos date..."she was 260 with a great personality"

It wouldn't shock me if he has a better season than Bain. I think people forgot how good he is when he isn't playing out of position.

 

[423Hurricane]

**** sure glad he came back this year.

 

[Hstokes1447]

Perfect weight to play that rush position (pause) we all know he can rush the passer but I’m most excited about him against the run.

That boi likes getting smothered

 

[Gocanes78]

Mesidor is a slightly above average college football player. If he was as good as some of you are suggesting he wouldn't be playing college football for a sixth year.

Above average is good.

 

[grover]

I expect a better than 22 Medisor and a better than 23 Bain, With Bryant, the three second years and Lowe stacked behind them, the Canes are going to generate a lot of TFLs.

The way this defense is designed, those guys should live in the backfield all season. Think 2017 defense. If Hetherman calls the defense the same way he called it in Minnesota, the way he had those 3 stars hunting, now replace them with 4 former 5 stars, Bain, Blay, Moten, Mesidor, and Jones, this D-line is going to feast.

I understand 2024 d-line was hyped as well and they did not live up to it at all. But the truth is the design of that defense crippled the talent on the d-line. It’s brainless to take a player like Bain who wins with power and run him on stunts, when stunts are won on speed. Hetherman defense is designed to the strength of the players that have been recruited since Mario arrived.

 

[gacaneaddict]

He was 3rd team All ACC in 2022 playing DE 38 tackles/11 TFL/7 sacks.

"And she cost me $260 herself at the steakhouse!"

I’m starting to believe you brother. I’m caught between thinking I have PTSD vs Kool-Aid from the off season hype. But what you say does make sense.
