July 25, 20223 yr 11 minutes ago, Sandbagging Steve said: Duce is a better receiver than many of the national receivers in the 2023 class. He can play in-line tight end. He can also legitimately flex, at times, while Shannon plays in-line tight end. I know we've had unqualified flex TEs in the past decade but Duce is the real deal. He could take receiver reps. Like CTJ said, you don't want to lose Shannon and there should be room for both on the field. Duce probably takes more snaps from Randle than Shannon. I'm trying to think of the last few tight ends with this much talent. Kyle Pitts was a freak but only ranked #162 on the 247 Composite. Who else? OJ Howard? He's got a different style but he's a great two way threat at TE. Sark should have the opportunity to display this on the field in 2022, if Ja'Tavion Sanders and Gunnar Helm can progress at in-line TE. There's some receiving weapons at that position (Sanders, Billingsley, Davis) for the first time in a long time. It's my firm (and probably misguided) belief that Will Randle will be a fullback. Also what if Shannon grows into an athletic OT? It could happen.

Wiley answered Roschon. It remains to be seen what the result will be, but the Wildcat is a much more credible threat when the player executing it can actually pass.

Didn't he come out when Sark was hired, or before he was hired, and talk about their friendship and how much respect he has for Sark as a coach? He's known him for two decades and Sark's son goes to Mater Dei. I think the decision with the linebacker last year can easily be explained and I don't see this coach holding a beef there. And there's room for both Shannon and Duce. If Shannon decommits, it will be because he wanted to go another route. I’m not sure what his sexual preference has to do with his support of sark, but I’m in agreement with the rest of your post, carry on.

Jermichael Finley was another player within the state with serious receiving skills. Finley should have been used even more at Texas. I think Duce could be a poor man's Kyle Pitts type of athlete. Pitts was also underutilized at Florida. I'm wondering if these college tight ends are underutilized because teams have difficulty finding another in-line TE on the roster to run 12 formation? Or is it just a matter of keeping the receivers happy? These guys all produced good numbers, but all three guys could legitimately play the receiver position. Finley ran a 4.67 Bennett ran a 4.68 Kyle Pitts has been clocked at 4.44 and there are reports he's gone lower than that. Duce Robinson ran a 4.7 as a sophomore. Just looking at frame and highlight tape, he's going to get faster IMO. All these guys could beat most of our receivers under Herman and Strong with 50 to 60 extra weight on their frames. Damn, I'll just forget I ever thought of that. Rage.

Anyone nervous about Gullette’s ACL? I’m a little surprised we’re still apparently full steam ahead there. I doubt we’re recruiting over Shannon. They went out to CA and locked him up pronto. Seems like a guy they really like above his rankings. According to Gerry Hamilton & the other IT mods, Gullette is considered an elite freak athlete that is take regardless of his season-ending injury.

Was an all around solid HS player but he played like 8 different positions so where is his best spot at the next level? TE, LB, H-Back? I think he has the inside track for the move TE position post Billingsley and will be a special teams player and depth guy this year.
