At 6'3" 240, he has the same weight per inch that a 5'11" 227 lb running back (Green's playing size last year) has. It's not overly large by any means. You have to figure in the fact that he is so tall for the position to begin with.

First, Webb said this morning that when Isaac left USC, he was 250, so he's actually dropped some weight.

In addition, Jim Brown was 6-2 and 232, and he was one of the most dominant RBs in NFL history. John Riggins was 6-2 and 230, and he's in the NFL HOF. Ty being 6-3 and 240 isn't out of whack by itself; it all depends on what kind of weight he's carrying. I don't have any doubt that he'll be in good shape by the time fall camp arrives.

This can't be updated. Drake Harris new pick on instagram shows he put on a good 10-15 pounds of Muscle at least. Its private but some guy put had it on 247.

If you think about it, Green played at 5'11" 227 last year as his effective weight. That's roughly 3.19 lbs per inch. At 6'3" 240, Isaac would be at 3.2 lbs per inch. So he's going to be build about the same way Green was last season, which is good for a power running back that is used in this type of offense. At any rate, as long as it is good weight I don't see why it matters how much a kid weighs.

Whoever says this team is devoid of talent is downright crazy. We are 2-3 starters deep at most positions, especially on defense. 

Even if we don't have a good QB on the roster(which I'm sure Harbaugh will create one), this season should be a minimum of 9 wins.

I suspect a few of our guys will be pre-season All-B1G. Jourdan Lewis, Jake Butt, and maybe one of the linebackers are probably the best candidates. Plus there's Peppers.

Seriously, wtf was Hokes staff doing? Half these guys havent even played. Hell, Gideon wont start till hes a senior! Its like they were trying to find quick fixes instead of build depth. The thing is, WE COULD HAVE STILL LOST ALL THOSE GANES WHILE REDSHIRTING THESE GUYS AND 20 more!

Just like NCAA football when playing dynasty mode. You redshirt basically everybody it slows down the process by a year or two but eventually you dominate. Hoke wouldn't even win a national championship in that.

How cool is this: Joe Hewlett switched to QB to follow in his father's footsteps. 

He now wears #8.

The situation with quite a bit I am sure is in flux.  The new conditioning program has been in for what, a month?  I would bet that the weights we see now will not be the same come September.

Disappointing to see dymonte, Ben Gedeon, bolden, a few other, pipkens, etcetera, who are juniors and seniors and have not made too much of an impact, some redshirts on a few would
have helped depth...

A Hwt State Champ (Florida...i know) at fullback is awesome. You know the kid is tough and knows all about leverage and using his hands. Now thats an exciting move!
