Our 6'7 370 lbs starting NT. He's a freaking Giant....but he isn't fat. Good luck blocking him.

He's good at that. Needs to be careful of OL cutting him at the legs. Most OL will try that. I see no way opposing OL do not try to double team him - which means our LBs could have a big year

He is huge. One thing to note is that the guy next to him is very short, so it gives a little bit more of an effect to the pic.

The pic is courtesy of FL98, who interestingly enough got their media credentials for the Milligan camp pulled because they were accused by other sites of taking pictures during a closed scrimmage, even though the other sites were doing the same thing.

I leery of getting too hyped about size (Sapp was 6' and a monster), but what warms my heart is the amount of it we have. Offensive lines will have to work much harder this year.

Don't get hyped up about size. Get hyped up that the coaches have really been praising him, players keep saying you need to double team him anytime he is out there, and the fact that he was elevated to first team NT. He has put in a lot of work.

My guess is his metabolism is not super high so for him not to be carrying more weight is a feat. That speaks to work ethic.

He is apparently down to about 365 lbs, and was close to 400 in the spring.
