I haven’t watched it, but trust your comments, so that’s pretty concerning. Must have been at camp and did something right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As his offers stand today, this is fourth hand too, so who knows, but I think UND has a better shot than anybody here is giving them. I think they are very much in the mix. I wouldn’t commit if I was him either until he finds out what P5 offers he may receive. Kansas State would be tough to turn down if they came a calling….

His catch at camp is way more impressive than his 8 receptions, 7 yards after the catch (concerning), and what I describe as above average control blocking. His athleticism maybe just catching up with his body given his size. So, not overly impressed but not totally dismissive either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched the first 4 1/2 minutes, yeah pretty boring as he is mostly blocking. He does seem to stay with his blocks though. He did though as a Junior in HS have as many receptions as our leading TE last year though (7), so there is that. He probably didn't get a lot of opportunities, but since coaches saw him in person...I'll give them benefit if the doubt in that they saw something. We keep waiting to have a breakout at TE with a huge year and seem to have had a few somewhat highly touted TE's in the past few years. However when I look back we haven't had a TE with more than 10 receptions in a season since 2017 (unless I missed something), I only looked back that far. As much as we all want more production out of the TE, just doesn't seem like it's ever going to happen in our current offense, even with Danny as OC. Cloyd had 147 yards for the 2017 season, and since then we haven't had a TE with over 100 yards in a season. 15 receptions by a single TE in a season would be a monster year given UND's track record with that position, unfortunately.

Now Cloyd had one heck of a HUDL. I think my jaw dropped watching his. Sadly our staff 'missed' on the production side that he could of have at the college level but I think 3 of those years were Rudy-ball then Danny's 1st year. Overall I totally agree on your post. No defense is even going to practice to stop a TE position with so little production. SU be like "stop Weah" and some rookie asks about the TE on play action and the entire room erupts in laughter.
