I wasn't penciling anyone in as a starter. Maybe that's why "it flew over my head"

If you're going to assume everyone is penciling future freshman in as starters, why wouldn't I assume you're genuinely excited about a high school kids neck being broken

the fact you're picking sides and trying to create drama.
I'm not picking sides ... You are projecting assumptions with a person on a message board ... And trying to either admonish me to make your opinion seem valid or impress others with your stance on this topic.. Completely valid aspirations if you're into that
Have a nice day...[/QUOTE]

It's not a big deal. He's a big kid. Who will have access to one of the best s&c programs in the country.

Say what you will about his weight, but the kid has a good frame to work with, football smarts, and a love for hard hitting, smash-mouth football. I think he's going to be a good one. JMO.
 
Guy on VQ went to his game last night:

Anyway, when I got there, both teams were warming up in the same end zone for some reason. After a quick scan looking for Santos, I saw the biggest guy on the field - on either team - No. 78. I thought, surely that is a lineman. But I will be damned if it wasn't him. He is GIGANTIC. I'm not sure 6-3, 250 does him justice. And as far as I could tell, there was not an ounce of fat on him. He is just massive, plain and simple.

On the third series, he got a bead on a guy on a screen and absolutely annihilated this kid. I mean, I thought the kid might be dead. He hit him a couple yards from the sideline and took the kid through the air and they both landed at least four yards out of bounds.
During his team's next offensive series, they put him in at RB about 10 yards out from the goal line. His first run didn't go so well as they all keyed on him, but his next two he just ran over their whole team for a first down and put them down at the 1. Their QB took it in after that.

Going back to the loafing thing, everytime after that he knew the play was his to make, he exploded across the field and was not only the biggest player on the field, but also the fastest. He looked like a damn freight train. The analysts who question his speed need to watch a quarter, half or whole game and realize they have no idea what they are saying.

But the best play of the night on his part was the last play of the first half. His FS intercepted a Hail Mary at the goal line. He started to take it back and he found Santos as a lead blocker. Remember when the Waterboy acted as his teammate's lead blocker and absolutely murdered everyone in his path? That was Santos. He mauled two or three guys and was in the process of laying the wood to another when he himself got blindsided and laid out. The other team's fans went crazy - that was the most success they had had all night. But e got right up, and acted like nothing had happened. Reminded me of the Terminator.
