That’s the truth. Just realized this is a bit Germans. But I am surprised he got cleared.

Let the slacker play. At his weight, he'll be good for 3 or 4 plays at a time. Then take 6 off. Then play 3 or 4. Then take 8 off.
And I'll go ahead and predict he won't be available to play Clemson due to "injury."

Have you guys see him lately? Let Coots have him. He is so overweight.....I agree with poster above that he won't last more than 3-4 plays before having to sit for at least 6. They'll need an oxygen tank on the sidelines for him. Hope he does play vs us so our O-Line guys can lay the smack on him.

He's just another Coot Clemson will toss around like a rag doll.
There is a very good reason why Dabo let him to leave.

I hate to be that guy, do we know if he's really too fat to play? At 360 he's pretty heavy, but I mean Dexter Lawrence is 351 lbs.
Just wondering. He's fat but after watching his tape he may start for the Coots...

Reports are that he has lost 20 pounds since arriving on campus. He's still only going to be a situational player, more of a run stopper than anything. How soon he plays and how much is yet to be seen.

I'm not denying he's fat. I'm just saying if a guy like Dexter Lawrence can get it done, then it won't take Belk too long to be in shape to play.

Look at this picture of Belk when he was a recruit
Aug 30, 2018, 2:03 PM

and him in spring. I think he was around 310 then.
He fat now. Plain and simple.
Big Dex is also taller and has a bigger wingspan. If Belk is really at 360, then he's not in playing condition.

Dex may be heavy, but with his reported 18% body fat he is nowhere near Belk's level of round. Comparing the two is laughable, especially when one quit before he ever really got started.

If he lost 20 lbs it's because he forgot that he ate it . Talk about getting pancaked. He looks like he might actually sweat chicken grease .

I hope he's happy at SCar and enjoys his annual loss to the Tigers. I think we'll be OK without him.

What I find disturbing is now a signing with a school means squat! You can sign go early decide the depth chart isn't to your liking and then go somewhere else and play immediately! Free agency at it's finest!

Well it’s really just a problem our program suffers from. Usually other schools get a 5 star and that’s an immediate starter on their hands. But we pick up so much talent that some impatient newcomers aren’t used to sitting as a backup, so they take them and their selfish mentality elsewhere.

Coaches don't care if he's stuffing his gullet with Twinkies out there. They want a big body in the middle, and Muschamp said just that in a presser.

I had heard the SCU coaches were making him go home a couple times a week to build up their case for immediate eligibility with the NCAA. Personally, I think it is great...at his weight and conditioning it is basically a lost year.

Team doctors? I thought his blood pressure was out of control.
He looks like he's been going home twice a week and to golden corral twice a day.

Did he take a copy of the real play book with him or the fake one complete with stick figures bent over in compromising positions?
