Sorry to intrude but i think this needs a "bump"...some seem to be overlooking it.

Sounds like a good kid with the right grades and
attitude for Tech. He's tall too and not fat, so
I bet a weight program would really help him during
a redshirt year.

Sounds sort of like a future center eh?

I'll add my thanks to techsamillion, lets keep the linemen coming.

He sounds like he has the physique CG was referring to when he said, "We'll grow 'em when they get here." 6'41/2" sounds good.

Remember when Jon Carmon (6'9") arrived on campus and O'Leary laughed and said to some reporter, "He's the biggest human being I've ever seen." That has always struck me as funny.
