They some Fattening Hogs.... they need a special diet to gain weight quickly. Gets 'em ready for the slaughter house killing floor faster.  :razorback:

Hope there are accurate. If so, these are some great gains by our players.

FraggleHog

Awesome! Gains are great... gotta keep the speed and stamina though...

Well numbers on paper don't make you stronger or taller. Cook goes from 6-7 206 to 6-8 215 in 3 weeks time. I hope they did put on some muscle though. CJ was listed at 166, which sounds really skinny but probably accurate. He is built like Reed on the FB team who was listed at "170" last year.

Just shows you can't trust listed basketball heights.

More like the previous numbers were wrong.

My only concern about skinny players is that sometimes it seems to me the other teams have had guys that just walked off the yard.
Little known fact, but prior to settling on Guantanamo, the Pentagon wanted to house terror suspects at War Memorial Stadium.  It was deemed to be cruel and unusual punishment and in violation of the Geneva Convention.

Looks like there has been some adequate weight room work going on.

Yep, we've had very few like that.  Corliss and Roosevelt come to mind.  A couple of Stan's recruits, "manimal" can't think of his actual name.

Charles Thomas. Darian Townes was another one.

hog.goblin

Thanks, was thinking about Charles.  Darian had size, not necessarily muscular.

6'10", 240lb. I wouldn't mess with him.


hog.goblin

Ha, I wouldn't either at 5'9".  But if I was Corliss, Roosevelt, or Thomas I would have held my own and then some if things got out of hand.

I'm not calling for guys to be huge, but it would be nice if they muscled up, even like a Pippen if they couldn't add mass.  Takes time I know.

Wish they could put some weight on manny.
