Although I have to disagree with him sayinghis pass blocking was "always there"....I still remember that spring game where Diyral went around him like a traffic cone.

And Glen Stanley bulked up to 245lbs and signed on with Central Florida after a year in JUCO....

Good for them, but I remember that spring game too. I don't know as though I've ever seen an OT get abused by a pass rusher as bad as that. He was having trouble even getting a hand on Briggs, let alone actually block him.

Then again, I also remember watching Briggs abuse Joe Thomas pretty badly too, and Joe has turned out to be pretty damn good

When guys leave our program and quiety disappear, I tend not to give them a second thought. But when I see two guys were pretty highly touted when they came here leave the program and then become productive somewhere else, I always want to know the story behind their exit.

I had REALLY high hopes for both Young and Stanley.
