Good for him, gives him plenty more opportunities to drop passes and fail to block anyone out.

No, it's not. It's classless.

Yeah, not a lot of rebounding in football. I would say take it to the football forum, but perhaps not--those guys have been in a bad mood for 2 years now...

No, you're just acting like an a-hole against a a kid who played very hard for us.

The guy loves sports and wants to be involved. More power to him.

I hope he excels at the U--so long as the Bears beat them when we play.

I'm honestly going to laugh a little when he scores a TD on us 9/7/24.

He can't. He thinks he's the resident gatekeeper of Baylor. His ego won't allow him to put you (or me) on ignore.

You're clueless. Being humble is my best quality fanboy.

Sad thing is you're probably right… amongst a plethora.

What position will he be playing? Offense or defense? I don't expect him to be a QB but there are other options.

Switching sports does he gain an extra year? I recall that being a thing back in the day for a bit. Steep learning curve going from hardwood to the turf granted people have done it. Best of luck to him in his pursuits except against Baylor.

He's 6'8". That's a lot of TE

At 6'8" and having no recent football experience, I wouldn't expect him to be much of a blocking TE. Now if you line him up as a slot receiver….

People keep trying this and it rarely works out. That's because the TE position is more than jumping higher than the coverage guy. In football, the coverage guy can lay you out at the line of scrimmage and for five yards after. So you have to be both quick and powerful. Its just a lot, lot harder than people think.

Plus you have to block. You are correct that it's quite tough but coaches think of Antonio Gates and keep trying.

And Jimmy Graham. Its just such a different way of thinking. Its about leverage, pad level and footwork. Just very tough to teach.

Maybe a package deal with Miro?

A guy who is 6.8 and 240/245 is pretty damn hard to chip, much less lay out, if you are a college DB.

The reason people keep doing it is it gives you more options and changes the matchups,, even if the TE doesn't catch anything.

But agree that he won't be able to block worth a damn.

Rico Gathers, Mark Vital, and now Caleb Lohner. Do we lead the country in former bball players that end up at least taking a stab at playing football elsewhere?

Ish gave it a go with us.

In 2017 Ish even scored a TD in Lawrence and maybe another in a different game. Thanks for the reminder! For some reason I remember that one.

Good point - I had forgotten about that. So that's 4 bball players of ours that ended up playing some football over the past decade. Doubt there's another bball program out there that can match that.

James Francis & Kendall Wright played both FB and BB at Baylor

So did Joe Simmons and Obim Okeke, who was just hired as an assistant by Jakus at FAU.

Given the number of programs he has been a part of during his collegiate career, he should consider changing his name to Loaner.

Buys him 4 more years to get a Masters, hell maybe a PhD, on the man's dime. Good for him.
