AT 365 lbs would Spencer Region not make a mountain of a DT

.. I mean really. We are looking for Athletic OL and he will never fit that mold. He is mean and nasty so why not give the man Nose Guard and see if he can anchor the middle of this defense?

The same reason Maybank can't.
If being good at football were as simple as just being big, everyone would be 400 lbs.

Region looks like he is slow and indecisive. He either

doesn't know who to block, or he's just too slow to get there in time. He would be a terrible DL.

Region will be fine

If he can get down to 320ish pounds that would be like the equivalent of any other O-lineman playing at 285. He is just a very heavy set guy. If he can slim down he will be fine, he is just still very slow because he is like 50 pounds overweight and its tough to move 360 pounds around.
As far as being mean this guy just wants to maul people on the football field. He has a mean streak and he will be just fine. He is a RS Freshman, 19 years old and very raw. I'm not counting him out yet.

Obviously conditioning is a big factor, but I would be willing to put him on the O-line for short yardage and Goalline situations. He was known for being a maulter in high school....figured he could atleast do that for us in certain situations.

How hard would it be to be a mauler if you outweigh the opponent 150 pounds? Answer: not hard.

Who cares? He can use that weight to his advantage. He is country strong, the kind of lineman everyone wants. He just needs to work hard, slim down and prove he can be a starter on this team. Maybe he lacks a work ethic but I know if I were him I would be like outside running sprints in August trying to lose some of that weight. I know it probably isn't that easy, you can't just replace fat with nothing, he is obviously trying to get stronger too.

Venables to Spencer: "Hey Spencer, come here. Can you do me a favor? Go out there with the defense and line up in front of the Center. When the ball snaps just put him on his ###. If you see anyone near you with the ball put them on their ### too. Can you do that?"
Venables to Anthony: "Hey Stephone, come here. Go line up behind Spencer and blitz the QB."
lmao, by golly this could work.....
