Some more notes from what was told to me yesterday by a team source:
- McCord is going to help right away. His mental makeup is impressive and conducive to early playing time.
- Jake O'Donnell came in huge.
- Gabe Terry can really run. His speed translates to Greentree.
- Everybody is on campus right now except Dillard.
- Ereck Flowers will be the best offensive tackle on the team by next year at the latest (I agree).
- Lockhart is turning heads.
- Duke is a little banged up right now but will be fine.
How banged up is Duke, whats wrong?
I was wondering the same thing? Not to be a negative Nancy or anything but how on earth can Duke be banged up? These kids aren't in pads tackling or blocking yet. Red Flag?
Could be a freak thing (pulled hammy/quad) but it's not a good sign when your potential biggest playmaker is "banged" up before actual contact occurs. Makes you wonder if he's going to be able to get out of fall camp unscathed and be ready for the opening game.
Oh well I'll hope for the best I'm sure it's nothing but judging by the past (guys injured during voluntary workouts) it's never a good sign. Rant over.
