Is Octavious Oxendine 318lbs?

[BWB4TTU]

After watching replay of UK vs LSU, I see no way in hell OO is 6'1 318 lbs. If he is look out, he moves like a linebacker. He looks more like 265 to 270. Looking at a breakout season for him. On his sack in LSU game he moves really well for a DT.

I think we win another game last year if he's healthy. Was a needed force on the line with Paschal and Co. Looking forward to seeing his progression this season.

Kid will be All SEC this year if he remains healthy, probably our most mobile and strongest DL. Nothing personal, but these subjects where you or anyone else posts just a name freaks me out and I always expect bad news.

I understand, I looked everywhere to make sure there was no similar post. As a lurker since 2002 I mostly keep quiet. I'll change title.

No coincidence our 3 game losing streak occurred after Bully got hurt & then Ox. Hardly any team in the country can take losing 2 top d line rotation guys while going against toughest stretch of the schedule.

Saw OO8 on the sideline at the Citrus Bowl in street clothes and his Kentucky jersey, with a leg brace. I don't know if he is 318, but he is a big dude.

I thought he was taller than 6'1"? He looked as tall as Mccall.

OO8 is about 6-2. Not as tall as McCall, but the right size for Dtackle.

He has a great football type name!
Looking for a huge year from him.

I noted last season he and Pascal had a flat bellied look for their respectively listed sizes.

And while shorter than Pascal, it can’t be by more than an inch or so.

Their fluidity at such size, and speed, are similar.

OO is a top 2 round guy who developed quickly, and with no preseason fanfare. One of the few 4/5 Star D-linemen recruited in 2020 not in the Rivals Top 250, but one could argue that he ourshone Rogers, Rybka, Anaele, other big time defensive recruits from that huge 2020 haul.

OO is a heck of an athlete. Big recruit and the type of DT we need to take that next step.

Ox and Lovett are my two defensive players I think are going to make a big impact this year

Lovett might not play a lot initially because of Ajian, Geiger, and Dodson. But he is going to be a good one at safety once he gets a little experience.

I think OO8, Rogers, and Rybka have a chance to become one of our best Dline in some time, and there is good depth behind them.
