We waited 4-5 years to see him star but he got on the field and produced as a freshman. We can't even get to the point of seeing Jaray on the field. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chennups Posted December 5 Share Posted December 5 Good luck. I always rooted for him and waited for glimpses given how GH described his athleticism. Hope he puts it together somewhere. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atticus Posted December 5 Share Posted December 5 It wasn’t gonna happen for him here. Hopefully the guy can find a home and get on the field somewhere like TCU, Baylor, or Tech. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rillo HOOK EM Posted December 5 Share Posted December 5 You see him compared to Vernon Broughton and it shows that looking the part isn’t all that matters. Thought he’d be a stud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Evans Posted December 5 Share Posted December 5 Yikes. He was developmental, but can’t waste 3 years on a roster spot like this. Frustrating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_everyoneshere Posted December 6 Share Posted December 6 Juan Davis also put his name in the portal last year, then chose to stay and has worked hard for this team. Would like to see Bledsoe maybe reconsider as experienced DL is a need for 2025 and put in the work. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobbers Posted December 6 Share Posted December 6 When you see athletic freaks passed on the depth chart by Freshmen it is a reminder that football if 90% mental. It is about character and will. Shying away from the challenge is the easy way out. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTown Posted December 6 Share Posted December 6 The timing though is curious. Why not wait until at least after Saturday to announce. Oh well good luck to him . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feeling like he was deserving of playing time based on his skill level, but not mentally handling the adversity properly. Which I fully understand as I've dealt with that since I left the military and jobs over the past 14+ years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not getting snaps at a position where we've even seen Aaron Bryant get garbage time snaps. The earlier he declares, the better he can maximize his options. This is what happens at programs that recruit and perform really well. Not all the high potential/high ranked guys are gonna pan out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
