I don't know much, but he's better than me. I could see him jumping straight in like Dex did especially if he's comparable like the players are saying.

From all reports (coaches and players) he is the real deal. I saw him at the recruiting roundup shindig here in Clemson and his face really does look like a kid. He looks more like a 15 or 16 year old in the face with a grown man's body. He had a constant smile on his face but I imagine when he is on the field, there may be a different look.

his career, not just a depth guy. Be hard to be day 1 starter because has to bench Williams or Pinkney, but it sounds like he is a 2 on Day 1, along with Kelly.
When you say a "quality depth guy" I think of someone buried on the depth chart for their career. that is a lot different than being a backup as a freshman.

Recover from surgery, I have no doubt they’ll start vs GaTech.

I don't see him replacing Williams or Pinckney on the first unit, but sounds like he is first man up on the rotation.

All I know is he better be ready to step right in. Will get a lot of reps early and often. Not usually an alarmist but he and Reuben better be ready.
With belk being a bust and Darnell??? Who knows what happened to him. Hard to see him putting on good weight of 30 lbs. was going back and reading his recruiting bio and CBV was counting on him for a one or two deep this year.
We are paper thin on the dline. Don’t matter how good our offense is if they’re not on the field.
Go Tigers!

Kelly, Jefferies, Davis and Cash will get a bunch of reps from now till the spring game as well as will Reuben and Ohrohoro. SHort on experience but the talent is there.

But when we score 8 TD's a game, all will be good. I don't think there is a team on the schedule that can hold our first team below 8 TD's over a four qtr time frame. And this Dline isn't going to give up 8 over a 4 qtr game. Rest easy my friend, rest easy.

Ruke, E.T., Cash and Jefferies will get snaps and play in at least 4 games(Jefferies is R-Fr.). As Skalski, Henry, and others did.

If the reports are true, he is the best DT on our roster.
I think he plays a lot and starts quickly to help shore up our run D.
I didnt see the consistant play last year from any returning DTs to have the confidence they can hold the standard we have set.
