I know I'm bias, but I've been watching this happen to X since high school. Being underestimated and/or judged due to his appearance and/or physical traits is literally his life story. That's what fuels him. This is just another chapter in that story.

We can sit here and talk about forty times and measurables until we're blue in the face...
But when it comes to PLAYING THE GAME OF FOOTBALL, there are few better than X.
And it's kinda wild that a player can be a First Team All American, a Biletnikoff finalist and break every receiving record at a program filled with Hall Of Famers...and still not get drafted. (while DE's who have registered 4 sacks in their career go 1st round)

That's the current climate of football that I'm not a fan of.

And it's not like this approach has never failed. We see it fail all the time. That's how we have guys like Julian Edelman and Adam Thielen. Yet we still continue to use this formula.

I have zero doubt X is going to be a very good nfl player.

Shemar will be a bust.

“Ward's leadership traits are no secret at this point. Cooney remembers being blown away that one of Ward's first requests upon transferring to Miami was for a picture book with every Hurricanes staffer's name and face in it so he could introduce himself to everyone in the building by name when he arrived on campus.”

That’s CEO **** right there. Every time I think I can’t love this dude even more, I read something like this. He would make a great coach after he’s done in the NFL.

And love how Cooney talks about X’s work ethic. I definitely think it sets him apart and will get him on the team.

Sounds like the report from Tennessee. Cam made sure to meet everyone, including the mailroom staff and cafeteria.

And you’d know better than anyone @CoachMacho… serious question here. We all know everyone has different physical makeups. Do you believe his playing weight should remain in that 210lbs? It’s pretty abnormal for a slot receiver at 5’9ish. Could he be more explosive at 200lbs or even 195? He seems like he’s a pretty disciplined young man so I don’t think it’s bad weight per se… but like he put on too much muscle mass. Like he’s lifting with the OL or something, lol.

I heard a retired NFL player once say a coach told him “Son, you’re going to lift yourself out of a position.” Because he was a skill player that liked to workout and he was getting too big.

What are your thoughts on X when it comes that if you don’t mind sharing?

Definitely needs to trim muscle. It’ll cause more injuries trying to use the same explosive power to move more. I hover around 5’11, 198. I got up to 218 in the military and pulled a hamstring trying to run a 9 in our annual flag game. I was lean just buff af. **** felt like I was pulling a U-Haul 🤣. He’ll drop seconds on his times also

X is a man on a mission.

He knows everyone underestimates him and we've all seen, game after game, what that young man can do.

Go Be Great!!!
