He could wreck on special teams. If he can pick up the playbook I bet he sees the field at safety too.Coaches have told him he most likely will NOT redshirt.

Physically, I would say that he is definitely ready.Coaches have told him he most likely will NOT redshirt.
Good. I see a number of kids in this class helping immediately on special teams. I also see Gerry pushing for playing time at SS, if he can pick up the defense quickly.Coaches have told him he most likely will NOT redshirt.
It's not like he's gained fat. The kid is ripped. If you gain muscle mass it doesn't slow you down, you actually get faster especially if you train on speed which track sprint athletes do. I bet he could run a 4.4 or better today.40 time may be inaccurate. In a live chat he stated that he ran it when he was a sophomore at iowa state's camp. He's obviously gained some weight from the time was a soph.
I agree. I would expect him to keep good speed with some added weight. And I doubt he looses much of that speed when in pads, which is not the case for everyone.It's not like he's gained fat.

Do football programs not run 40's anymore..? Not even for summer trainings, or team testings, or..?devnet said:this was just posted on the Omaha.com's chat page:

From Michigan Husker: What are your PR for 100 and 200 meter times? How about your best 40 time?

That's speed gentlemen.

Not necessarily true. If you are naturally fast and have pretty strong and powerful legs naturally but you just are small in your upperbody then you can loose some speed if you gain a considerable amount of muscle mass in your upper body. Just goes with the territory, but like I think your saying, if you are doing things right then you should increase in your lower body proportionally, so it shouldn't be too significant of a loss in speed.It's not like he's gained fat.
