Adam ElGammal

Seems like that is more of an indictment or our current players - we should not be in a place where Zion is starting as a true freshman.

Well, it goes to show you how a legit strength coach and o line coach can pay hige dividends. A guy like Zion has only been exposed to Feeley and Barry, while guys like herbert and brown were subjected to multiple years of searels & fat gus.

I like the athleticism of these big guys from NY but I do wonder how physical and tough they are when they face other tough physical guys.

That's why we feed them raw meat.

Ivins reported that he doesn’t know if this is a good thing cause supposedly feely has been telling kids to not try to put on weight before they get on campus so that it’s done right

A professional asking kids to wait for a professional.

Looks like his dad is a strength and conditioning coach

That kid could easily pass for 26.

No it can’t. Not without steroids. The human body just isn’t made to add muscle that quick. Muscle takes time to break down and heal/grow.

And when you add muscle, a lot of weight is water with some fat and other tissue. The term muscle is misused bc nobody adds just muscle.

Someone whose 6’5” 270 pds can add 20 pounds of muscle way faster than someone whose 6’ 185 pds.

Man you guys quickly forget he's an 18 year old HS kid. Let him live. Feeley will get him right in a couple months once he gets on campus.

I was just kidding man, I like the work he has put in so far and I hope his dad's Strength and conditioning plan works out well with Feeley's.

I never tire of Jelani Ice Cream Sandwich Hamilton jokes.

with a dad jacked and in the profession, i'm betting this kid comes on to campus a lot further ahead in S&C than our usual baby fat OL... Odds are he probably has a pretty good work ethic too.. hoping for another Zion surprise here...

 

[Bird4um]

If he's nearly 6'8", then his coach is 6'10".

Think that is his old man

 

[Mel Bernstein]

Here’s an opinion. This guy and Zion have no business at Miami. Both will be gone from Miami in 2-3 years or never play a down their entire time here.

It’s hilarious reading comments from people that have no clue, somehow suggesting the kid has great footwork or stregnth based on watching a 1 minute video of blocking tires and doing lightweight shrugs.

Bump

 

[omaha]

Why bump this? Did this kid play? From the video I saw on YouTube of this kid in a Miami practice this kid is slow as heck. Also looked uninterested in the drills.

 

[Koke]

He no longer at UM? Barry just wrote this

"Meanwhile, UM offensive tackle Adam El Gammal — who hasn’t played a snap in two seasons — is no longer on the roster. His mother declined to say if he plans to return to Miami or transfer."

 

[Goulds Cane]

Lol I forgot he existed

 

[Fawk_U Haters]

Jarrid Williams coming back probably put this in motion. Bummer as he looked like he had some tools to work with, but i would also have to think Isiah Walker and Chris Washington might be jumping him if he is indeed leaving

 

[BoxingRobes]

Even when they were recruited, you could at least see traits in Zion Nelson that project well. He was a low rated recruit and there were some warts, but you could at least see there was ingredients there...and it has seemingly paid off, to a point. He's not an All-Conference guy yet, but he actually may end up being after a horrendous freshman season.

El Gammel though...he was playing right tackle only, often had help on his side, and was playing against 5'8" 190lb white kids on the edge and even then, he didn't look great. Thought he had slow feet, was just big. Its not a shock he lasted less than two years here.
