We also got a second commit yesterday, Daris Workman, a 265 lb OL — who also played basketball. (an extenuating circumstance for being only 265 lbs, perhaps) Before we write him off consider that it might be easier to add 30 lbs. of muscle over a couple of years than take off 30 lbs. of bad weight. I believe Kentucky ‘offered’ him as well.
Ever hear of D’Brickashaw Ferguson? “Ferguson played for the Virginia Cavaliers football team. He started his college career listed at 260 pounds, often dropping to 245 pounds through the regular season. He started 49 games for the Cavaliers, and he was named to the consensus All-America first team during his final season. He was placed on the all-Atlantic Coast Conference first team two years in a row, and he became Virginia’s first All-ACC offensive tackle since 1998. Ferguson started at left tackle in four consecutive bowl games for the Cavaliers.”
Will he turn out to be another Ferguson? Who knows but let’s not snicker just yet.
Glad to have both these guys. Who’s next. Hines, Hughes, McGirt or all 3?
