That is one massive individual. If he was any bigger he'd probably have his own gravitational pull.

The big guy rockin' the IUFB tee on his B-Day! Stinky is his only other B1G offer right now..

 

‏@brijones_24: Crazy watching my baby brother grow up man Happy Birthday @calebballsohard love you more than any & everything ❤

I hope we land him, and I hope he develops a mean, nasty streak to go along with that size. With that size, he's probably a right tackle. Lefties need to be a bit quicker on their feet and don't usually come in that size.

Seems like an Andre Smith type for the Bengals. I'd love to start the IU to NFL pipeline for the O line.

Is he 3, 6, 9 or just doing ok?  I'm not up-to-date on my signs.

Good news. Let's land that killer whale!

Wiltfong picked us earlier this week.

Jones is the No. 6 player in the state per 247Sports. At this point, Jones is also considering Cincinnati and Purdue. Greg Frey has been the one leading the charge for Jones.

We have a pretty easy case to make for o-linemen

McCarthy joined the party a few days ago.

13th. verbal commitment in the class and 5th from Indiana. Listed at 6'9 and 320 pounds...another big boy!

So much power in his game. Looked like their offense runs a lot and he excelled at pinning defenders away from the runner. Maybe a guard at IU? Not sure he's got the lateral quickness for tackle in the B1G. Not knocking his game, because he looks like he could be a dominant guard with all of that lower body strength.

Seems like I've read that the interest was at guard, but I'm not sure. And its not knocking his game to question whether he fits in at particular position over another. That's much better than a few years back when we were questioning why we were taking a commit who should have gone FCS.

Let's add a 6th and get Potts! People seem to think he's ours to lose.

CB agrees with that.  He would be a great addition!
