Illinois TE Hunter Boyer commits to UK!

[bluecoon1]

Put 30 lbs on him and put him at tackle

I remember when we tried to do that in the Joker days because we couldn’t get any OTs, not saying it can’t happen but it didn’t out very well.

He will play a lot. I expect a heavy run offense this coming season.

The QB who threw for 3700 yards last year does not plan to throw the ball this next year?

 

[Caveman Catfan]

And?

I’m sorry but if you’re still supporting Stoops at this point you’re part of the problem.

Oh No!! I am “part of the problem,” because I want UK to win next year. Not sure whose problem, but I accept the role!!!

Hunter must love to block God can you believe a tight end would come to this school welcome to the train wreck hunter

Under brooks its exactly what they did and it worked. Worked for several other positions too under brooks. Two more off top of my head was woodyard and tamme. Its a viable strategy at several positions.

Joker just sucked.

Ironically, that’s not the definition of insanity.

NO. More like a sixth offensive lineman. He is a blocking TE, you do have to have those you know. Don't you ?

My wife's cousin has a son who played at Baylor from 2011-2015. He was a backup DT for his first 4 years who was in the rotation and started 3 games. His senior year, they moved him to "TE" where at 6'3 295, he was basically an extra OL. He was really effective in short yardage/goal line situations as a lead blocker out of the backfield and in max pass protection, with the exception of one memorable occasion where he slipped out and caught a 9 yard TD pass against WVU. I'm guessing this is how Boyer will be used as well.

Good to know that we have an extra lineman for Dowdell. Stoops better be more aggressive on 4th and short next season.

 

[Kybluedude]

I’d go out on a limb and say we traded up regarding what is needed incoming vs outgoing tight end

Yeah, a few more of those 10 win seasons would be disgraceful. Total insanity.

I agree largely, though it seems it worked out for Brooks in an instance or two, though names escape me.

6-6. 270 pounds
That could help some goal line situations.

6-6 270 is HUGE for a TE. I'm sure DBs would love to see him coming full steam. LOL
