Jalen Hurd now over 240 lbs.

He is getting to the point where he could eat himself out of the SEC if he isn't careful. If he wants to get to the NFL in a role other than a Brandon Jacobs type player, he may wan to cut a few pounds this summer.

Sounds like Butch is going to pound him b/t the tackles to loosen up the corners for Kamara. Smash and Burn.....I like this combo.:bash::devilsmoke:

At the combine Jamal showed up at 237 so I'd say he probably dropped a few lbs to add speed. Very possible he played at UT at 240+ his junior year.

Maybe. No question that is what the combine had him at. Perhaps he is one of those guys who has more muscle density. I just remember how much bigger he looked in the NFL, vs college. He was a horse. The injury was a disappointment and he just kind of went through the motions his Junior year.

I think Hurd can easily carry 235+ during the season. Last year all of his weight was in his lower body while his upper body was very lanky. This was due to his shoukder issues. Now that he is 100% he has been able to even out his weight distribution; in turn he will be much more durable, be able to break tackles easier, and also gain some speed.

Watch out SEC, Jalen Hurd might just be a thunderstorm all by himself.

A running back that carries weight in his legs and has a lot of leg power is very scary. That is a gifted running back.

Jacobs played at 265-270. If Hurd is 240 right now he will be 235 max in the fall. They are not comparable.

T. Martin is a sellout that deserves to have his street sign removed. Save that sign for true VFLs like Inky.

You must be trolling :) Tee was instrumental in bringing us our last NC. He is a coach and will probably coach at multiple schools maybe even Tennessee one day. Can't blame him for trying to be at the best place for him and his family.

He's still too tall.

My apologies but someone had to say it. :no:

Was Eddie George to tall at 6'3" and 235lbs?

Get out of that old school in the box mind set, Doug Flute was to short to be an effective, winning QB!

Its time to judge talent and results. So far Jalen's results are spot on!:rock:

I'm sure he just forgot his blue font...for one....it's already been said about 50,000 times and it doesn't make anymore sense now then it did way back when!

Not quite. 240 on a 6'3 frame, in the offseason, is not getting to the point of Brandon Jacobs.

As many have said, he'll play this fall in the 228-232 range

DONT KNOW ABOUT Dobbs but I've stood next to Croom he's a legit 6'5 .Iam 6'3 and was looking up to him a little.

I haven't noticed anything about Dobbs or Croom that makes me doubt their respective heights. Other players, I have. For example, Josh Smith doesn't seem to be 6'1 to me and I question whether or not Pig is a centimeter beyond 5'7".

How concrete is your 6'3 measurement? :question:
Click to expand...

Im 5'10. We have a friend in common who is 6'1. He is taller than both of us. So he's at least. 6'2.

What I like about Jalen the most is his character. He just comes from a really awesome family and I am curious to see what God has in store for him.

There are a lot of cynical people on here with nothing but smart ass things to say. It's refreshing to read something nice like this about one of our best players. Thanks for posting. :hi:
