LOL! Boo Carter

I wouldn't go so far as to say he's "immensely talented." He had a few little flashes but mostly ran around trying to not get hurt. With a lot of hard work, dedication, and a good attitude he "could" be a very good player. Honestly, I'll be shocked if he ever accomplishes anything at any school, much less make it big.

He is athletic but I’m not sure he is talented. There is a difference. You have to have the brains, desire, drive, etc to be considered talented.

I disagree, which is fine. You dont have to have any of those things to have talent. Ive seen numerous talented players flame out because they lacked all the things you mentioned.

Dude. Know what you’re talking about. I’ve been endurance training on a bike for 25 years. I’ve ridden at over 12,000 ft in Colorado. Acclimation is about 3 to 4 DAYS for anyone in some semblance of conditioning. When did he get there yesterday? The kid is lazy and doesn’t put the intensity or effort into it.

Not saying that he's playing at this altitude obviously, but in reading a book called "Into Thin Air" (about a Mt Everest assent), people typically took weeks to acclimate to the climb stopping for several weeks at two "hiker camps" on the way up. They also started at about 15,000-18,000 feet. So, you could be right. I would think it would take at least a week to go from TN to CO and perform at maximum level.

How long has he been there?

I ran a faster 5K time in Denver than I did here and I’m an old, 200 lbs man running. Acclimation is offset by determination. Boo is determined to be Boo and that ain’t what he wants from life. Momma wants him making some money and the well dries up quickly with no heart and desire to be your best.

So you’ve been doing it longer than Boo has been alive but he should acclimate as quickly as you.

Again, he’s gone. Let him be. He didn’t want to be here, so see ya bye. Continue to berate the kid is childish.

Teams have to travel and play in colorado all the time. They aren't at a disadvantage. Arizona st went in there and beat the brakes off of them. Either you are in shape or you are not.

Acclimatizing to altitude generally takes
1–3 days to adjust to a new, higher elevation to avoid sickness, but full physical adaptation for peak performance can take 2–4 weeks or longer. 🤷‍♂️

This according to multiple experts… but you do you, boo-hater.

Again, he’s gone, and it’s okay.

So he needs maximum performance to keep up with his teammates on jogging drills lol. Also he appears to be the only one struggling. The other newbie’s seem ok.

He has elite, or borderline elite, ability to make guys miss in the open field. I think a huge part of his attitude/work ethic issues while he was here is that he actually doesn't like playing defense.
