Love this quote: His hit on Michigan running back Vincent Smith in last year’s Outback Bowl might be one of the best plays I’ve ever seen, and it’s possible that Smith’s helmet did a 4.2 on its way off Smith’s head that day.

 

That would be pretty crazy.  To run a 4.46 at 274 lbs is nuts.  I believe Freeney ran a 4.4 at his pro day or Combine or something.

Yeah, Freeney put up similar #'s at 269 lbs.

Freeney ran a 4.48 at 266lbs at the combine, but reportedly ran a 4.40 at some point at Syracuse

[CR91]

:o....................this kid is scary

[Hans Moleman]

Barring a QB going higher out of need, Clowney's got to be the odds-on favorite to go #1 overall.

 

Also, keep an eye on Taylor Lewan. He was the guy who blocked Clowney that game, but wasn't the blocker on that particular play. Lewan did a great job against Clowney and would've been a high pick this year had he not returned his senior year.

He hit a 5'6 160 lbs RB who was completely helpless straight on. I'm sorry, but that hit is way overhyped.

The player, however, isn't.

Yea , other than some QB looking like a stud , he's a lock to go No 1.

[IndianaJones]

I see him as being very similiar to jevon kearse.That might be both good and bad.

Since I can't give you more than one 'like' for a post,  I'm giving you a shot-out here for a very, very good post.

 

Well said, and completely spot on!

I loved hitting little flies on the run.....and I am 235....and was not a speed demon

 

Regardless.....OUCH!!

 

[FastStarts]

Man, that kid can be scary good! 

 

A little off-topic but can anyone tell me when the college season starts and if you know, how could a fan in Europe watch it? Is there some kind of stream like NFL Game Pass?

[Superman]

What's gonna happen when he run a 4.8 at the Combine next year?

[Dustin]

What's gonna happen when he run a 4.8 at the Combine next year?

Probably still a top 5 pick.

[Superman]

Probably still a top 5 pick.

 

Yeah, probably. But it's starting to sound like a fisherman's tale.

[BrentMc11]

HMMMMM!  The one that did not get away?  True or false

[Dark Superman]

Let's tank the season and get this guy!

Suck for Clowney...just does not have the same ring....

[Dustin]

Go down for the Clown.

[BrentMc11]

Go down for the Clown.

Good one Dustin!!  

[SteelCityColt]

The Raiders are way ahead of you.

[BOTT]

The Raiders are way ahead of you.

Except they will take Bridgewater, if he lives up to the hype.

the play won an ESPY for the best play of the year

WitH the Jags taking Boyd? He might yet fall to us

Pretty sure QB will go #1 but Clowney will probably be the first non QB off the board.  I would guess 3rd overall right now if I had to.  

[That Guy]

He also seems to be a bright kid with a good personality.  I liked his interview, and I thought he had a great quote:

 

On how he stays out of trouble:

"I just stay out of bars, and stay off Twitter."

 

It sounds SO simple, but it makes a BIG difference.

[FalseStart]

As long as the jags don't get him...

[Dr. T]

He could be the crown jewel of our defense. Maybe we should offer a Ditka deal like for Ricky Williams. Does South Carolina play a 4-3 or a 3-4?

They play a 4-3....and No just no no and no...

In the past, ESPN America showed a lot of college football. Unfortunately that channel went down this summer. It depends on where u live - Germany, Italy, Swiss, Austria? then you could probably watch it on a channel called "SPORT1 US" but I´ve no clue if that is available in your area.

I live in Denmark thank you very for the answer! Im probably just gonna be listening to you guys and your reports.

[backshoulderfade]

This guy is the perfect prospect in terms of attitude and on-field play. It's a shame we won't get a chance at him. Best we can hope for is Kyle van Not and even then, we would be lucky if he is still around.
