That kid is very strong in his upper body. Everyone he engages near the LOS trying to block him he stands them straight up and goes after the ball carrier.

Nice!

I noticed the same thing. Specifically in :43 where he just blows up the blocker on the edge (I couldn't see well enough to determine if it was a TE or a tackle, though I think it was a tackle) and crushes the QB. Blood got pumping watching that.

Is his 40 time correct?

I wondered the same thing. I saw the Army Combine results, which listed 5.11, then saw another that listed in the 4.8s. I'm not reading too much into those given the pretty wide discrepancies.

Good get! Welcome Polk!

Thanks for posting those. I feel after actually seeing him that this really could be a pretty good recruit. Call me nuts, but I like a LB who knows how to tackle.

I like this quote from the Woodrow Wilson coach:

He was a four-year starter for us," Estes said. "I have had two four year starters, one was Sergio Kindle, and the other was Chard Polk. If he was 6-3, he would have Notre Dame and USC after him. He gets after the football and creates turnovers.

That's pretty good company.

Undersized and not fast enough, but somehow started 4 yrs straight, and put up nearly triple didget tackes and 14 sacks last yr.

I think there coach said it all. This guy will be a major playmaker very soon, great comeback from missing out on Hunt.

Gaines to the rescue yet again.

You're correct, that was the tackle, not the TE, bull rush, and put him on his ass then blew up the QB. Excited about this guy.

      Two more home games before students are back, then hopefully the athletic department is going all out to try to compete with last year's record-breaking numbers.

      Auburn warns of potential ticket price hike ahead of revenue-sharing model

      In traditional professional football, when teams pay players and have a losing season, the teams still make $$$ and turn a profit. Thus they can afford to continue to pay players. In today’s college football, when boosters pay players NIL and the team has a losing season, the boosters lose money AND they don’t get to experience the joy of being associated with a winner. Will those boosters keep donating NIL? Do you have to find new boosters? Don’t you eventually run out of boosters? Just don’t see how this NIL model is sustainable. Rich people didn’t get rich by losing money and I don’t see how you can keep asking them to do that via NIL. The revenue sharing model WILL work and it will be interesting to see what percentage of revenue is ultimately allocated to labor. The NBA gives 51% of gross revenue to players. The other major professional leagues give less. But why would colleges give players anything close to that? College players are infinitely replaceable. People root for their school and as a consequence of that, root for the players competing for that school. But if the Top 100 players in college football disappeared overnight, would the popularity of the sport suffer at all? I don’t think it would. Offer the players minimum wage, make them sign binding contracts with buyouts and non-competes (assuming you can still enforce those: that is another rabbit hole). NIL will still exist but won’t be as big of a deal because of the contracts and buyouts. If a players thinks he is too good for this system, they can start their own football league or wait until they are eligible for the NFL. Why wouldn’t this work?

      I don’t know how much they care. It’s like monopoly money. Many of them are just borrowing from Uncle Sam and hoping they don’t have to pay it back.

      SMUt getting owned by State

      Did you believe Alabama would be uncompetitive vs Oklahoma? What about OSU vs Tennessee? Did you think TCU would get absolutely nuked by Georgia a few heads ago AFTER beating #4. Michigan? Blowouts happen every year in we den the 4 team playoff. They mean little.
