Underrated play of the game (Lightfoot)

Advertisement
Just went back and looked at the play and he definitely got a good hit on the big fella and then got up screaming like a maniac, I love it. As it’s already been said, of course he has to add weight but I love his motor. As soon as he comes on the field you can bet your *** you’re gonna see 12 running around like his hair’s on fire.

On Fitzgerald's INT return, towards the end of the play by the sidelines, Lightfoot absolutely pancaked FSU's starting RT (Pettus). Lightfoot put a big lick on the guy and Pettus was out the rest of the game. FSU had to put a guard out at RT from that point on.

Take a bow, Marquis.

5 star talent producing right there.

Lightfoot needs more time, for sure. We’ll need 1-2 DEs in the portal, imo. Not sure how much weight lightfoot can gain this off season but he needs to be 240+ next year imo. Even at that weight, not sure that equates to being a starter. Love what he brings, though.

You don’t think Blount- Lightfoot- Lowe and Bryant can hold it down next year? (Among others on the depth chart)

I don't. You're missing McConathy. Too much inexperience. I like that group, but I'd say they are 1+ year away. I think 1 vet DE from the portal would bridge that gap and you hope that McConathy continues his trajectory from his freshman year and Lowe becomes a monster in year 2. I don't know that Lightfoot is an every down DE but we'll see how he continues to develop. Don't know what to expect out of Bryant given he's barely played this year.

I was wondering about Bryant. He played the first 2 games, Im guessing he got injured against Bethune. He hasn't played the last 3 games

Connie goes into the Yoko pile. Don't get me wrong, I would pick Connie 100x out of 100 over Yoko, but she's like a scooter....she'll get you from point A to point B, but you never want your friends to see you riding it.

Connie Chung, when she was mid-30's?

Tasty little piece of sushi!

**** you Maury Povich!!!
 
Another unsung play for 12, he’s on the edge and he’s engaged violently by the tackle, and he rips the bigger and leveraging tackles arms away to jump into the rusher (I think it was Tommy). 12 is going to be really good.

Unfortunately every play someone highlights of Lightfoot is outside, using his speed. He isn't gaining weight during the season and the drop-off between him and Mesi is big. He needs atleast 10-15 more pounds to be where he needs to be. All of the backup DL need to keep working. While they have talent and make plays, the drop off is to significant right now.
Thomas is making many more of those, did you see that plays than Lightfoot.

I hear ya… just another reminder the trenches are really a grown man’s game and other than freaks like Bain. You need a few years to get your body right… Messidor is in what his 5th year?
 
Bryant is now behind Pickett. Pickett and Lightfoot are now 230 vs 210 coming in. If they can add another 15-20 each, they will both be big enough to set the edge. Blount and Lowe clearly will be the bigger guys, Charles 26 is another bigger DE type that could end up at 250-255 by August.
