Forcier Gains Weight...Greatness Ensues?

Submitted by bamill010 on
I'm not one to facebook stalk but Tate's status update popped up in my news feed and here's what it said "Almost at 200 pounds. Time to get swoll for the ladies and the Big Ten;) hahah."

Funny, I am currently on heavy rotation with those two games. Assassins Creed makes me mad though, anytime I try running after or away from someone, I end up jumping off buildings on accident or get all turned around cuz he wants to grab and climb everything he touches, grrr. Then I just pop in CODMW2 and murder a bunch of dudes.

My friends call him Tooth-Pick Forcier and talk in high pitched voices. They watch Michigan football purely to see me get very upset. "Damn it Moose-Man, you're in!" etc. But yes his arms could use getting a bit more "swoll".

I am sure his deep ball will be improved by two things: 1) Having a labrum connected to his body 2) Having Molk back so his pocket lasts longer than 0.1 seconds. I hope Tate has that much upside; we'll win some games that way.

because an effective deepball is necessary to spread the field. If he could somehow do that, not only would the offense be more efficient. but, recruits we would become more appealing to recruits like Arnette as well.

the real question behind all this is whether or not you tried to friend him with the (according to ESPN) 2300 other people after the Notre Dame game or not.

I'm not poking fun at the OP because I would have written the same thing, I just think it's funny that anything involving facebook always starts out "I'm not a facebook stalker or anything" or something along those lines.

I also saw that pop up on my Facebook updates earlier..but im pretty sure he has said before on there that it is not his real Facebook page just a fan page. I could be wrong it just seems kinda fake to me because of some of the comments

I'm 145 and play rugby. I tend to get thrown around and down, and go flying when hit by bigger guys (everyone). So far I have got dislocated shoulder, fractured elbow, whiplash, and ... broken collarbone. If I weighed another 50lbs I would not attain as high kinetic energy and I think I would have avoided some of these injuries.. So, pork out Tate!!

I'm less concerned with his weight than I am with his ability to hold onto the ball while he's runninng around....err...play-making. Did his hands get any bigger? That would be stalk-worthy info from Facebook.

The problems in 2009 began with an injury, not to Tate Forcier but an injury to David Molk. An injury free offensive and defensive line are all I'm asking for this year. If we are fortunate in these areas we will have the continuity needed to allow the skill players to flourish. Offensively last year the only team to stop Michigan was Michigan.

Tate will put on weight, but I don't expect him to get above about 205, maybe 210. If he can get in that area and keep his speed and agility, we're in good shape.
