Career Notes | Agility | High School | Personal | Stats

ANALYSIS
Positives: Intelligent lineman who compensates for a lack of an athletic physique with sound technical skills … Has effective linear speed … Shows good hand placement and takes excellent blocking angles with surprising quickness, despite his frame … Dominates defenders with his lateral agility, showing suddenness to reach and zone … Knows how to sink his hips to maintain balance … Shows good explosion coming off the snap … Makes blocks based on very good use of his hands … Takes advantage of leverage to make up for a lack of brute strength … Can pull and connect on the move, using his techniques to defeat and control opponents.
Negatives: Needs to dedicate himself more in the weight room … Very weak in the lower-body region … Has a tendency to put his head down, which causes him to lose balance … Struggles in pass protection when he stands too upright and must remember to keep his hips down low to be effective in this area … Marginal, at best, as an incline blocker … Has good awareness on the field, but this gets lost in his lack of lower-body strength, as a strong power surge can send him back on his heels.

CAREER NOTES
Versatile lineman with experience at both guard and tackle … Came into his own as a senior, establishing himself as one of the best drive blockers in the Southeast … Started 25 consecutive games for the Tigers.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2001 SEASON
Started every game at right offensive guard … Earned Tiger Offensive Player of the Week honors vs. Mississippi and Florida … Graded 83.5 percent for blocking consistency and came up with 71 key blocks for an offense that generated 3,947 yards, an average of 358.8 yards per game.

Ball State - Collected 11 key blocks and graded 87 percent in the season opener.

Mississippi - Graded 92 percent as he made eight key blocks, including one that cleared a rush lane used by tailback Casinious Moore for a 2-yard touchdown run as the team totaled 194 yards on the ground.

Syracuse - Credited with three knockdowns on All-America defensive end Dwight Freeney, grading 92 percent … His cut block on Freeney allowed quarterback Jason Campbell to turn the right corner en route to a 44-yard touchdown run.

Mississippi State - Followed with a 94 percent grade, taking down defensive tackle Dorsett Davis on a sweep to the left side, paving the way for Moore’s 50-yard scoring scamper.

Florida - Graded a season-high 97 percent as he collected 10 key blocks, including one that leveled linebacker Andra Davis on a 1-yard scoring plunge by Daniel Cobb on a quarterback sneak.
