Was perusing gojackets.com when I ran across Mr. Daniel Hood. I know he has been mentioned briefly on here, but I need some clarification. Hood is listed as a TE. There is, of course, no TE in our offense. What position is he projected to play? It looks like it's between us and Ole Miss with official visits scheduled for both toward the end of the year (12/12 for GT???).
 
Hood said that if he does well at TE (this is his first year playing the position) he'll go to Ole Miss, if he doesn't do well he'll come here and play on the OL.

Funny comment. Sounds like a lose-lose for us. If he does well this year, he's a rebel. If he stinks it up, he's ours ... YAY!
 
We are recruiting him for the offensive line. This is the first season that he has played TE in highschool. He has played on the line pryor to this year. He will not be a "skill" player here. If the kid is lights out at TE and another school is offering him to play TE he would be foolish to come to GT. I hope for our sakes though that he does choose to come and play at GT.
 
It just seems that if he's really what we're looking for on our OL, that he will also be really good at TE in his senior year in HS. He'll at least be good enough at TE for a school like Ole Miss to at least pay him lip service about giving him a shot a TE.
 
Make a chow hound out of him! Weight room! The next Drew Gartner!

Go Bees!
 
How many lineman have good hands? I haven't heard of too many OL being transitioned into TE's. The opposite would be easier.
