i really, really like the upside of this guy. I know he's raw, but i think if he's got a good head on his shoulders and learns the offense quickly he could have an impact, particularly near the goal line. He will probably have trouble blocking some of the bigger guys in the conf., but I think he could definitely shine in the red zone.
GO VOLS!!

Ryan - do you think he'll get a head start in the weight lifting program where he's at or wait until he gets to UT this summer?

People may not agree with me at all.. But anybody that can play volleyball in college is a SUPERB athlete.. You have to be long, lengthy, and you have to be able to jump.. This kid is gonna be a huge red zone.. I can see him lined up wide against a small corner and someone just throwing a ball up to him

The comparison to Beau Sandland is an interesting one. He had offers from dozens of major programs.

I totally agree. If you been around men's volleyball, you know that these guys are strong, have great hands, and are very quick. He would not have been at Pepperdine if he wasn't an exceptional athlete. No one has mentioned his vertical, but as an outside hitter for volleyball he has to be able to jump through the roof. Could be a great receiver, just hope he can learn to block.
