Tua is 290, not 385. Runs a 5.2 40.
Tua looks good, but he doesn't run a 5.2 40. And a 40 time is meaningless for OL/DL.

This isn't directed at you, but don't trust HS 40 times...unless they're from the big Nike camps these top kids go to that are laser timed. That's where you see kids that claim a 4.4-4.5 run a 4.7

Very, very, rare for a HS kid to run a 4.5 and below.
I don’t believe what they say for height, weight, etc, but I just go off what they say. A good 40 time says something about quick twitch, which is good to have at every position.

Yeah, I was wondering if the Cats might be losing some DBs soon.

A 40 really doesn't tell you that much. A 10 yard tells you infinitely more for lineman and rushers.

Most important for skill positions is short shuttle, 3-cone, 20 yard, 10 yard, I even think the jumps are more important than a 40 time. 40 times and bench press aren't useless, but very overrated.

Believe it or not, but Cole and Thomas are already juniors, and Greg Filer and Damien Washington are seniors.

I was thinking underclassmen. The Gibson twins, specifically. Hope they don't look to transfer.

Beat out EWU for him. This kid is an absolute dude.
Lyndon is a 2A powerhouse in WA as well.

Cascadia Preps named him 2A lineman of the year, and apparently he played his whole senior season with a torn ACL?

He also had a PWO offer from Washington.

I just mean that in 2 years basically all 4 starters right now will have graduated. So you need to get guys now and develop them.

It's clear Choate understands the importantance of a good secondary in a league like the Big Sky.

I completely understand. I just noticed the twins had changed some stuff up on their twitter pages and I was worried they might leave.

Yeah MSU has three seniors at safety, two senior at corner, and then Thomas/Cole are juniors. We needed to have a big CB class to replenish the depth. Okoda and the Gibson twins will be the veterans soon.

I'm an OL guy so I think Kettels is my favorite.

I thought maybe I was being hyper-sensitive after the Duru/Metcalf/Williams news but last night I saw a weird tweet from one of the Gibson twins and neither of them have anything about Bozeman or MSU in their twitter bio anymore. Then I see the huge DB class and it got me wondering as well.......Hopefully I'm wrong. Ty'Rese did retweet Dom Browns commitment and said "Can't wait to get him going" on 2/4, so there is that.
