Does anyone know his status? I don’t see any buzz about him here or on the interweb.
He talked extensively about Allen during an interview 2 days ago. Forget which interview though....I was hoping CGC would mention him more if he was lighting it up in practice.
Yeah I am pretty sure I saw this, too. Also cant remember where.He talked extensively about Allen during an interview 2 days ago. Forget which interview though....
sorry.I'll be honest. Thread titles with only a player's name continue to freak me out before I click.
Derrik Allen was one of the most popular kids on our developmental defense. He was an unbelievable teammate. There's a bunch of walk-ons over there. And not that we care about that, but the respect that he gave them, and the bonds that he made with them. I mean, he's one one of the top hundred players in the country. But he came here was on the developmental team, and never acted like he was something he just acted like he was a great teammate. He acted like he was just on the developmental team, I'm going to get better. I'm going to get better with my dudes, anyone out there and had a great attitude.
Good scout team players are hard to find. It's hard to give a good look consistently in practice. In addition, it's really tiring. It can be extremely rewarding if done correctly. You basically get free practice against the best on the team. It's how I made my chops- going up against D.Morgan, Mike Johnson, Vance, and Drich every down of my freshman year.He told an anecdote where DA was on the scout team and all the other scout team defenders respected him.

Amen. I don't even remember the LBs kicking my ass cause of the monumental task in front of me and being scared to let those guys down and Giff. LolIron sharpens iron
You are correct. Notice he also has the Twitter handles for Clayton and Ezzard as well. IOW, they're no longer held back by the NCAA restrictions...now they can get on the field and compete.
I took this to mean he was happy about being eligible to play starting this upcoming season.
