I feel like Gervon Dexter can do whatever he wants on the field. When they cut him loose, I get C. Campbell and D. Buckner vibes. More often than not, Florida had him eating double-teams playing 0-2 techniques. When he was locked in, he did well, but his effort was inconsistent. For example, he looked better vs Alabama than he did UCF.

In general, I think this DT class is kind of like Dexter. The talent is there for it to be one of the best classes in years, but we're waiting on them to play up to that talent consistently.

He’s a dedicated film junkie. I expect him to have a big year and start ascending.

I’m a big Bresee fan. Hopefully he comes back strong. Late first round ?

Was the best player I saw for Florida last night. Whenever they put him in position to get upfield, he won almost immediately.

Him and the RG O’Cyrus Torrence. Not many that can do what he does at 340.

I did not get a chance to watch the LSU game, how did Roy play?

LSU looks like they are in for a weird year.

There is something off about that team and it does not look like Brian Kelly is settling in down there in red Stick.

It always seemed like a strange fit to me.

 

[Pachyderm_Wave]

Only thing about Gervon Dexter is he’s a little slow off the snap. He’s consistently the last one out of his stance along the defensive line at the snap.

Anyone think Calijah Kancey can play DE? Looks very explosive

 

[jimthefin]

He is probably too short to play DE, unless he has freakishly long arms.

Would a Fangio defense covet a true monster NT like Ika?

Fangio had Isaac Sopoaga at NT during their best years in SF
