TE Cameron Jurgens [Nebraska - Signed LOI]

[Cdog923]

I always wondered how he would fare at linebacker. I don't think we can really screw up where we put him I think he will be a stud at TE or linebacker.

Why not Both? He doesn't have to play TE every down but if we put him in for 10-15 snaps on offense I wouldn't complain. Maybe give him a few snaps of rest on defense and call it good. Kid is a great player and I hope he comes in ready to push for playing time right away with his skill.

Welcome to the Nebraska form of the two way player. Going back and forth between the trenches playing physical football. This would be something pretty special

It would be, but that would also be an IMMENSE grind. You could see a CB playing WR because there isn't a lot of contact, but going from LB to TE would double down on the wear and tear.

I personally hope he ends up at TE, but I could see him being great at LB, too.

If I remember correctly Stanford had a player a few years ago play like FB and LB or something like that. Not something you see often but I suppose not completely without precedent

I'm guessing you're thinking of Miles Jack from UCLA; played both LB and RB

nope it was a Stanford player that I am remembering. Wasn't a standout but he played significant snaps on one side and like 40% of snaps on the other

Edit: here he is, interestingly enough he was a walkon

yep that's him and I was mistaken, his dad was a walkon at Penn State.

A coaching friend has played against him a few times in BBall this year, said he is not the best player but built like a brick house and a freak of an athlete.

Hope to see some of that today in GI

I'd be curious what he weighs now. I'm a big fan but he just seemed to be big and kind of slow at Heartland Hoops. Or perhaps I should say not particularly quick as opposed to slow.

Maybe it's just because basketball isn't really his sport but watching him play then watching Austin Allen later Allen just moved so much better - and Allen is taller.

Just kind of makes me wonder what position he'll fit bet.

Have yet to watch him play live but just watching film I thought he should be a LB. Now with our move to a 3-4 I think he definitely starts there.

Speed on a basketball court, is not speed on a football field.

Kid is going to be an animal.

Which is why I wasn't talking about speed.

Guessing a bit here but there are some interesting symbols here:

Nevermind. Missed that the second card is for Bookie.
