Love the hat but could we have gotten him a better t-shirt?

He's big, but I don't think he looks 3 bills.  Also consider, conditioning at MU will get him in better shape.

He looks much smaller here than some of the other pictures we've seen from other points of his high school career. With proper support and training, I don't think his weight will be an issue.

I found online where Jay Copeland is listed at 6'6".

At 6'9 is 280 even that big of a problem? It depends on his muscle mass, the typical DE in football weighs 280-300 and usually is only 6'4 or 6'5....he may very well be 280 in that picture.  It'll be nice to have a huge guy on our side for once in a long while.

He looks great to me! Welcome aboard, buddy!

PS: That t-shirt is an embarrassment and the hat is even worse. Let's get him some gear, Buzz!!

The hat is top of the line.  Looks like a fitted 59-fifty.

The shirt is awful though.

Devante wants the ball pushed up the court

I like this quote a lot:

“I like the basketball program and the style of play there,” Gardner said. “I like the way they push the ball up the floor because I like to run. I like their offense and their intensity.”

Doesn't sound like a loafing, ledfooted center to me.
The www.valueaddsports.com analysis of basketball, football and baseball players are intended to neither be too hot or too cold - hundreds immerse themselves in studies of stats not of interest to broader fan bases (too hot), while others still insist on pure observation (too cold).

Im not sure they even sell big enough shirts for him.
