Welcome to the U Cam!!!
You disagree that they do it for every recruit?You couldn't just make your point without adding an insult! Sigh...I'll be the adult and agree to disagree.
What different time? He was on his official visit this weekend and committed.Nah. Recruit the heck out of him and I hope he turns out to be a solid addition. However, I think they should have rolled him out at a different time. Agree to disagree.
Fair question. I was more referring to the name calling and later admitted to being in my feelings. Of course they do that for everyone and the kid deserves his moment.You disagree that they do it for every recruit?
Reid was considered the “blocking” TE in this class. Once he decommitted I knew Canes were going to try to advance into the portal. Do I wish we would’ve added someone with more upside? Of course. But the roster definitely needed a TE to put their hand in the dirt.Lol Don't know how much it helps but.... I'm sure it doesn't hurt to add him in as a depth piece.
Brantley is light, Mammarelli is in the portal (everyone keeps forgetting) and Arroyo is injured. And none of these guys have been "great" blockers so far.So now its everyones opinion that Mammarelli, Brantley, and Arroyo can't block? And we're bringing 2 freshman TEs in and have Skinner..
Arroyo has potential as a blocker. Brantley is more of an H-Back with the most effective blocks he provides coming from motionBrantley is light, Mammarelli is in the portal (everyone keeps forgetting) and Arroyo is injured. And none of these guys have been "great" blockers so far.
Because he brings maturity and healthy culture to a locker room that is still recovering from 15 years of me me me me me..... Still don't get why we need a portal TE of all things.
He thought he was signing up to work for the Ruiz law firm.The reason a kid like this is so rare In college football is because anybody who has been through the adversity he's been through has most likely medically retired. He's definitely perseverant.
I doubt he has NFL aspirations so he's probably just happy to be a part of a team and contribute and set an example..won't whine about playing time and can play a role on the field if needed.
Doesn't move the needle of excitement necessarily but makes the team better.
This kid is 100% a culture/character take. And if he can help block when we need him, then even better.
Pretty neat story too if you want to learn some about our new TE.. been through a TON of adversity.
Cam and Realus go way back to the Great Depression Era when they were grandpas
Is he enrolling in Miami's doctorate program? I mean as long as he's been in school, he has to have several Master degrees already right?
Why would we neeed a "Great" Blocking TE. I'd rather just have good ones who can actually catch...like we reasonably can assume we have. Mammarelli is in the portal - yeah I'd rather just keep him, Simple.Brantley is light, Mammarelli is in the portal (everyone keeps forgetting) and Arroyo is injured. And none of these guys have been "great" blockers so far.
Is he like an onfield coach
