Spring Practice 3/22 - Early Portion Notes

View as article
Advertisement
Many people on this board were saying the same **** about Pickney last spring when a spring practice photo of him surfaced that wasn't to the standard of this board. People even began to say dumb **** like Pickney was going to lose his job if he literally didn't "tighten up." Bringing up his shape/body type/weight, as a concern, was just as dumb then as it is now.

The dude went on to have arguably the best season out of all of the LB's last year, and there is absolutely nothing to suggest that his play, will in any way, fall off this year. Between plays, he could eat a chocolate cake dipped in grandma's mystery gravy, and I would not give a ****, because if a big play was made during the previous snap, it's high chances that Pickney is the one who made it!

Not everyone has the genetics to have a 12 pack. He makes the most plays on our defense. I am not worried about how he makes your ****** wiggle.

Dude is a baller.

Agreed but he would be making more plays if he wasn't carrying unescessary fat and that is a fact.

Lol @ a lot of these guys STILL ragging on Pinckney! First off, if he were out of shape he WOULD NOT be running with the 1s as the initial spring depth chart is always based purely on offseason workouts/mat drills/weight training. So the coaches must think he’s in shape.

And last a lot of y’all would have hated on Jerome Brown because that guy was infamous for eating a 12 piece KFC chicken box before and after practice. Lol

Here’s a video that will make all you guys happy, that are worried about Pinckney being out of shape, and talking about him building up has 12-pac, etc.

I’m sure you fellas already incorporate this as part of your fitness regimen. Just make sure Michael follows your little routine every morning, CIS fitness experts.

Reminds me a little of that FSU QB boogy in the locker room. Same general manly approach.

How white boys did it 30 years ago.

Not really. If you have a 12 pack, you are very clearly in shape in some sense. Are you in football shape? Possibly not, if you have absolutely no cardio/endurance. And if you have great core strength you will have abs unless you have a **** load of fat covering them.... Again, then it becomes a question of diet. Offensive lineman can have a strong core, but they eat so many carbs, calories and fats, that they are huge. If an offensive lineman worked out hella hard, and got on a strict cutting diet, they could slim down a **** load. To eventually having a 6 pack. Would it be healthy? Probably not. But it can be done. Obviously they would no longer be a good football player at that size.

I'm telling you dude, Pinkney could definitely cut the fat if he really wanted to. The minute he does that he'd have a 6 pack. Theres not a single person in the world that if they didn't diet+workout perfectly couldn't get a 6 pack...unless they literally have a disability or something like that. But the question is, is that really desired? I don't think its exactly a desire for any LB to have a 12 pack. They'd probably be too thin. At the end of the day a LB needs to be around 225+lbs. At 6'1", thats gunna be hard to do to have a perfect 6 pack and ****.

So, am I freaking out over Pinkneys body? Lol no. He's a really good player that plays very instinctually and makes a lot of plays, and he's been rocking that "out-of-shape-look" his entire career. I'm just saying he definitely can get in better shape than he currently is. Anyone who looks at him and honestly thinks differently is simply wrong.

Jordan and Mallory are our two weapons at TE. Irvin is young he can improve, but he just doesn't have the natural talent that the two freshmen have. He is more of a blocking TE that may be able to chip outside for an unsuspecting 1st down anything more than that is possible but shouldnt be expected.

Lol except he isn’t a good blocker

Why is Langham still at WR and not at TE HB type? They guy has no chance at a Pro career at WR. He has a slim chance at TE and we know he will catch at the position. If I were him I would make the switch and be able to start tomorrow

Please stop. Mallory is 207, he’s redshirting. Irvin had a bad day, he’s got really good hands.

I said earlier how majority on this board love switching players positions but this obsession with crowning high school kids stars before they even get on campus needs to stop.

Yes Jordan will get lots of reps but we are not playing two fresh te’s the majority of snaps when one is under 210 lbs.

It's more than a bad day with Irvin, please stop. He consistently has had issues here-- be it conditioning, off-the-field, or on it. He has yet to put it all together. Both FR TEs are going to play this year. No one's crowning anyone. It's a product of their being no one ahead of them worth keeping them on the bench.

Karen Carpenter had a 12 pack at the end. She was in great football shape. Knock it off with the Body Shaping nonsense, Ric.

Apparently attending bi-weekly crossfit and shopping at Whole Foods qualifies everyone as a certified S, C & N expert.

He's too lazy to put in the work to get better. Born on 3rd base he's never had to grind before. The 1 area in which inner city kids have an advantage.

Wtf are you talking about? Irvin a blocking te? That’s his weakness is blocking. He’s a receiving te

I didn't say he was an ace blocker just that he's not that talented of a receiver to have all these high *** expectations. If you're not that good of a receiver then usually they call u a blocking TE.
