An Interview with Chris Wormley
Andrew interviewed incoming freshman defensive end Chris Wormley and posted it this morning. Last time I posted a link to an interview, I was accused of "overselling" it, so this time I won't do that. Enjoy.
I JUST CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!!!!!
you'll take the hits and like them young man.
Speed, agility . . . and desire. You can't play sideline to sideline if you're not willing to hustle.
Quit being such a jerk Chad!
Yeah. Thanks a lot Bin Laden.
Pretty sure that's illegal.
it's a good thing you never actually linked to the freep!
A spam filter? For typing <a href...>?
I don't understand ANYTHING anymore!
I feel pretty confident in saying that the spam filter didn't delete the link. Because I AM the spam filter. And I didn't delete the link. So unless PGB or someone else nuked it, it was an error of another sort.
Perhaps MGoBlog has become sentient, and is actively improving the content of its own accord.
You ARE the brute squad.
I bet we can get Rob Scneider to play your sissy sidekick for the movie!
Time to teach it how to neg-bang.
your user name is jizzum cat.
Duane Long loved him. Rivals had him as a three star. Seems like he could be a high NFL pick or no more than a back-up.
I disagree rather aggressively.
The most interesting commit of 2012 (by your logic) is clearly Jehu Chesson. A 3-star at a position of need that had "speed" as a weakness but yet wins State in the hurdles.
Wherever Wormley winds up he is going to have to compete with a lot of recruits in the 2012 class (and 2013 class with Taco / Poggi) to earn playing time. I think Chesson is much more likely to make an impact in 2012/2013 than Wormley.
Why not Darboh? I don't think both will see the field (that would be wasteful - but the need is there.) I haven't seen too much film on either but I'm curious if you know something wrt Chesson and Darboh. They both have similar speed and cred.
You're forgetting the obvious choice:

/Long Snapper jokes will never get old.
Oh... you said TOKarsky...
Darboh was a consensous four star if memory serves (or at the very least close to it). Chesson was not, but has built up a lot of hype this offseason with his track speed.
Both are great kids, but since Darboh has a higher ranking - the casual fan would think he is better. I think Chesson is more interesting because it seems as if he was underrated by the recruiting sites. And as we know - seemingly every year a 3 star comes "out of nowhere" and becomes a real player for us (Braylon, Hart, JT Floyd, Jake Ryan, Frank Clark, Desmond Morgan etc. etc.).
Rivals and Scout weren't around back then.
It's a subjective issue......one cannot be "clearly" more interesting than another for everybody. It's a matter of opinion.
He doesn't deal in opinions. He deals in facts. And Jehu Chesson is factually more interesting.
Not to sub-sub thread - but which guy do you think is going to be more impactful in 2012 Darboh or Chesson? Or do I have to wait for your countdown.
Eddins is undersold in that coutdown BTW in my opinion - but we will see about that on the field. He's had the college workouts and training. It's highly dependent on how fit/ready Williams comes in.
I'm still somewhat undecided on that... I'm leaning toward Darboh because he's more physically ready, but I don't know that he's more talented in the long run.
Do you expect both to get playing time?
No, I expect one to redshirt...I'm just not sure which one.
The lucky guy may be the one who RSs. The overall playing time across his career is going to be larger for that guy. Devin will take the marginal snaps at WR this year IMO - which means nothing.
Oh, you know recruiting sites. Hurdlers have to go up and down so much the experts may worry that won't translate to straight-line speed.
This is the second or third interview I've seen with Wormley where he continually looks away from the camera. I wonder if he's disinterested, camera-shy, or just wants to beat the hell out of someone asking the same annoying questions in interview after interview. Either way, I'm excited to see him on the field.
I get the feeling he's a little camera shy.
for pent-up hostility, soon to be released on some unsuspecting RB.
I think you're getting him confused with Brandon Graham.
6'5", 270 lbs is pretty impressive for a freshman DE. There's not really much room for him to grow into that position. Would you say it's 50/50 he ends up inside?
Eventually, yeah. I somehow doubt that he can go his entire college career without gaining at least 20 lbs. And if he's 290+, he'll probably be too big for DE.
For whatever reason he reminds me of Alan Branch a bit(not as big). Then again that is why I draw pictures and don't talk football X and Os a lot.
It's not a recruiting violation if the players have a previous relationship. Considering they went to the same high school, it's quite possible that Koger and Wormley knew each other outside of the Michigan connection.
But I think there's also a difference between publicly communicating with a recruit and communicating with him in a one-to-one manner,
Tweeting @RecruitX is bad. Sending a direct message to @RecruitX = not always bad.
I could be wrong, but I think you're wrong.
You're wrong. I think.
