My guess is he is being recruited to play the same spot as Neal. I doubt he would play the same one as Watts. My hope is Reviere eats his way into that position.
Yep, I see next year Faucheux stepping in right away to play the 3 Technique along with Watts and Marks and possibly Reviere as some of the talented DEs developing shift him inside. Gibson could back up Neal at the nose guard position and would have the opportunity to be a starter his sophomore year. .
He also plays OL at his high school. Very strong. Maybe not quite as athletic as some currently on the roster but very good size and a lot of upside since he seems to have a lot of room to improve his technique. Johnson will fix that.
Hopefully this last visit will swing him our way
There is an honest path to starting and playing 35-40 snaps a game next season if his body can hold up. The LB's will inevitably be the strength next season with the top four returning next season and the DB's should be much better. The defensive lineman will again be a question mark but the talent will be there....will just need experience and coaching. Those are two things Purdue has at its' disposal.
Thank you, Hausta01. I think I heard both of those, as well. Weaver's commitment is supposed to be on his Birthday, in November. I can see another DE, or Leo, on the other side from Karlaftis. I can dream, can't I? We're competing against the world for him. But I know he's been here for both the NW, and the Missouri games. That has to say something.
I was specifically looking at Tom Loy and Allen Triue just put in CB picks yesterday for Kentucky.
I don't want to get into a pissing match over something so trivial but you wrote, "There has been like 5 crystal ball picks for Kentucky today."
A front 4 of Karlaftis, Gibson, Weaver, and Faucheux would be ridiculous. Throw Hunter into the mix as well? Those boys would have a lot of fun in the opponents backfield.
