They asked the Purdue Football team what position Zach would play in football...

[Abugabby]

The consensus is that he would be a dominant tight end. Imagine having a 7' 4" 325 pound tight end with good hands. Dang. Goal line situations would be a wrap...lob it into the corner and let Zach eat.

He'd be very tough to defend. And I'm sure the officials would never call OPI on him since he's so protected.

 

[ImRonBurgandy?]

Good to see the football with love for the basketball team. I've often wondered how much the sports teams support each other.

Put him at WR not TE in passing situations, because you don't want to waste his talents blocking. Then put him at outside linebacker in passing situations. They won't be able to block him, because of his long arms. And finally, on FG attempts, put him at MLB. At the snap, he runs up to the line and jumps as high as he can. If he blocks a FG early on, you won't have to worry about their FG unit for the rest of the game, and the game film will intimidate the other FG units all year. During their FG kickers warm-ups, have Zach run along side of them and jump with a growl.

He would be a bigger and better version of Kyle Ingraham, our former 6’9” WR

 

[ImRonBurgandy?]

Yup. Outside WR would be best. No sense wasting time at the line getting hung up with LBs and DEs. Something tells me Edey wouldn't mind the physicality either.

But how many routes could he run in a game before fatigue sets in?
