Good analysis...what would you say if he wears a Union jersey this fall?

would say start eating 5-6 full meals a day(put on 30 lbs) and how good are you at stopping the run at d-tackle? if not your our new blocking tight end....

I agree with the DT/ Nose Guard/ O Guard or blocking TE assessment. I disagree with the start eating 5-6 meals a day, I think he's got that covered. If he puts on 30 pounds he would be 275 lbs at 5'11", he'd be officially round. And at 5'11" he looked huge on the video's, which again makes me wonder just how small the other kids were.

Listen, I'm having fun with this kid, but I'm assuming that iamhuge is in fact not Trevor, or else he has a massive appetite for taking dlip. If iamhuge is in fact Trevor, then I wouldn't want him on my team just for being a Dlipbag. If not, then I wouldn't mind having him on my team, I actually like that the kid never seems to quit, stayed on blocks all the way down field and until the whistle, and never gave up on defense. But I would have to see some game films with him playing TE/ NG/DT rather than a highlight reel to get a better feel.

He'd need to re-adjust his weight, Doid, no?  I mean a lineman shouldn't be THAT top-heavy... He'd need better leg strength (while he has some leg strength, it's different than the level he'd need to be in the trenches).  I can't even see him as a tight end unless he can catch (none of the video seems to show him catching out of the backfield).  He's definitely D-3 in nature because that's the only level that would have a team willing to show him how to play a new position to THAT degree -- and even then, it's a big risk.

He did catch some balls out of the backfield, but I meant blocking TE ( I was agreeing with uPBRme), I don't think he would be a "catching TE" (what is the opposite of blocking TE, just TE?). He actually played DLine on the film, including some NG, so I'm assuming that he'll have some game film there so that you could assess his overall line play, both ups and downs. The real problem here is assessing the competition, which I know nothing about, but at first blush didn't look strong. That's the problem with highlight videos, you only get the best plays vs. the weakest competition.  But with all that, I'll go ahead and say that he could find a home in NESCAC or NEFC, not at RB, but possibly on the line.

Which video showed the line play?  I watched the first half of the '09 video and never saw it -- was it in the '08 package?

Apparently, the identity of iamhuge has been figured out by someone on a Florida Gators bulletin board.  I may pay a phone call to Trevor's dad to find out if the family knows the son is being exploited like this:

I was JUST about to post this.  Hilarious.  Really dude?  Florida?  'HE IS A BEAST'  hahahaha

Even funnier is the baseball stuff...'Looks like he has had a busy summer'

This is some type of joke.  It HAS to be.

Ha, it say's he's getting offers now but yet is pimping himself on a D3 message board...

I just can't get enough of this.  The #1 pitching prospect looks like me trying to throw lefty(which isn't half bad by the way) and the swing is hilarious.  Little baby alligator arms...too funny.

Terd, help me out -- why would the kid be wearing triple digits on his back?  Was this even an organized baseball game?

It appears to be some type of camp, and there were probably a few hundred kids there with different #'s on their wicked tight t-shirts.

Well, after the research here, I think it's time for someone to call the Princeton HS Football Coach to discuss the black eye this situation is potentially causing his program.  Whatever relation iamhuge is to Trevor B, this person is hurting this kid's chances at recruitment -- and making a mockery of the kid.  When he actually goes to a team (and he will), you KNOW he'll be hazed about these videos and postings and everything else, not only by his teammates, but also the players across the line from him.  This is just royally ugly, and I doubt the Princeton HS Coach would be in favor of this type of recruiting gimmick.  Anyone against me contacting him?

who is that imposter?

You mean, who is that poster?  As in, YOU.  Dude, you've been exposed.  Go pick some penny stocks.

I don't think it's the kid himself.  It's most likely his Dad.  Unfortunately, the kid is gonna probably get his ass handed to him in training camp because of all of this.  I'd be interested to see what the coach says.  From the sounds of these other sites, the coach probably hates the dude already.

Careful Ernie.

Well played, Terd!

I only know of one video, the initial youtube highlight film. Played some interior D Line, Defensive End, and TE. Along with Tailback, Fullback, Slot receiver, Middle Linebacker, and I thought outside LB (but that could have been standup weakside DE, I was getting dizzy).

[lewdogg11]

Man, this dude has more self-indulgent, unintentionally hilarious web material than any poster we've ever had.  I'm in awe.

Why am I picturing "The Great Santini" when thinking about this kids dad? If this is in fact his dad, I feel sorry for the kid, I really do.

Probably because his moustache is legendary.  Go ahead, give google a whirl.  I dare ya...

K - When I get back to NYC in a bit, I'll pay a call to the Athletic Director at Princeton HS.  I have his number from the MaxPreps site (you know, the one you've been touting, iamhuge?). 

Here's the funniest part of all this to me:  the SEC, Big 10 and other schools couldn't expose this situation as a quasi-fraud, but the LLPP can.  WTF?

[iamhuge]

Mrmarket can handle it.  He is the HUGEST person in the universe...just ask him (and so is his kid I guess).
