Freddy Canteen not dressing

Submitted by lukepanici on
Wondering if anyone has insight on Freddy Canteen not dressing. So far he has gone from being a hyped up freshman receiver that was going to add an explosive slot receiver to the offense, to being a cornerback this season, and finally to being a two way player. However, the guy has rarely been seen on the field following the hype train that's been built behind "Freddy Footwork". Does anyone think his early hype will ever translate on the field? I know it's just one game and he's only a sophomore, I am just curious as to what he does in practice to get the expectations so high for us fans.

#1 He had fall camp hype, not any hype as a recruit...just like Grant Perry this year. Almost the exact same in fact.

Which means, so he played last year about as much as you would've expected from that level recruit.

#2 He's hurt and it was one game. How do we know he's not going to start at the slot - especially with Perry's struggles? Also, we had Lewis and a bunch of "meh" at CB --- neither good nor bad. What's wrong with him contributing there?

Were you expecting he come in and win the Heisman or something?

I just know he's from the school that didn't even play real football, he moves his feet crazy fast, and in the fall of 14 he was one of the most hyped guys from practice.

That's not enough to make me thing he's a bust or not what me as a fan expected.

Actually he went to a school that only plays football.  There are questions in the area, if its really a school, or just a  full-time football camp that gives out grades.  

Nonetheless, not sure we can peg this loss on Freddy Canteen not playing.

was based entirely on a padless footwork drill. It was characteristic of the completely over-the-top giddiness and hype that's been the norm here since Carr retired.

I agree that it would very odd for Canteen to be runnung around the sideline with no clothes on assuming the reports are true.
