At this point, just getting big bodies might be a “win.” TG really needs to do a better job of attracting HS talent. Can’t wait for G Dexter to show up, but we need quality numbers to help us absorb injuries.

I’m going to watch Gervon Dexter tonight in Lake Wales vs. Lakeland Kathleen. Should be fun.

Dexter looks great against small guys and in camps definitely keep us posted on how he looks against better competition...great athlete and upside just looks twice as big as everyone he goes against

Nothing official yet...nobody knows what his official grades are except for his somewhat cryptic tweet

I’m not sure yet what Kathleen has this year on their OL. He played very well against a solid Largo team last week. I will report.

We moved to Lake Wales this summer and I plan to attend most home games.

He's a true sophomore, enrolled early last year and played in several games making a couple of sacks. I'm not sure why he wants to leave, but that happens often with a new coaching staff. He'd redshirt in 2019 and have 3 years of eligibility. I imagine he'd get over 300lbs before he graduated. Mullen has done well being selective with transfers so if they take him they likely see something positive. Imagine him and Dexter, two 6'6/6'7 DL's!

Tall is generally a terrible thing for an DL. Lowest man wins.

It doesn't really matter much what his game film looks like does it, frankly we take anyone to include any available tuba player at this point.

I thought it was all about pad level and leverage? If they do both well, height shouldn’t matter.

Height matters unless you have a superior girth/length combo...

That’s what she said?

Of course it is, but your pad level is much higher when you are tall.

 

[SeabeeGator]

Your leverage should increase if you’re tall with good pad level and balance?

The wrong way.

Odd top 5. Is he a buck? We’re a shoo-in if so.

Watched the fraziers kid from dunnelon tonight. Definitely a stud. Took. A screen pass for about 80 yards to the house. Caught a deep ball over a couple of kids for a td. And had a nice jump ball catch on point conversion. He did all this with very little to work with at qb. Plays linebacker on defense and lived in the back field he's a gamer. Did the gator chomp after his touchdowns.
