How many scouts normally come to our camps?

"Julius Combs is listed at 269 pounds and could be an option for a backup nose tackle. Sid Moore checks in at 253 pounds and has seen a lot of time this fall. "

 

Seems a little light for a nose tackle.

Exactly. Move young back to Nose and you have a solid two deep for the line. Flusche/Moore at DE TJ/Young at NT and Hamilton/Johnson at DE

plus Combes and Krasniqi/Novil

Whatever happened to that DT that was from Dallas Carter, Q Thomas??? He had posted he was going going to play football here?

Combs llst a lot of weight.  Was listed at 313 lbs. until this fall when he is now listed at 269.  Wonder why?

Reffs defense is more about speed and stunting... English lost a lot of weight as well to hold up better in the spread offenses
