Dak Prescott: "I really haven't lost any pounds."

[MSUDawg4Life]

Straight from the horse's mouth.

I loved the expression on Dak's face when he was being asked that question. Made me laugh.

I tried to tell you people that you didn't know what you were talking about, but ... noooooooooooo. Y'all can tell for certain that he's lost a lot of weight and that means we're going to change the offense.

lol

[Maroon_and_white]

........ If you can't see hes less bulky and more trim compared to last year then there's no hope for you

[Coastdog28]

Well, he isn't wearing a full set of pads or his chest protector. So, of course he'll look slimmer.

[Ifyouonlyknew]

You can tone up or slim up without losing weight. He's not as bulky or muscular as last year. He's streamlined his body more. That's fact not opinion.

[1bigdawg]

It is also possible that he has added some muscle mass and lost a little fat. That would make him leaner and the same weight.

Don't try to change it now. Y'all said he lost weight. He didn't.

I even said he could change his body without losing weight. The bottom line is he didn't lose any weight.

[FlabLoser]

He reduced his body fat percentage. When you are that in shape, this doesn't mean much in terms of weight.

There is clearly some high-level science going on in this thread.

I agree. A bunch of cheetos eater arguing over how to lose fat but not lose weight. I know one thing he looks thinner and fat burns off a whole lot faster than you can put muscle on.

Did I? This was my very 1st post the other day.


1. Dak has slimmed his body up. Does that mean he weighs any less? Maybe not but he's done the work to be more flexible & not as bulky.

[mstatefan91]

It's a relatively simple thing to do. Lose about 15 pounds right after spring training. Put those 15 pounds back on while keeping your conditioning level high. Bada boom, leaner appearance. Same weight...

[mstatefan91]

Or you can go the route of losing fat and trying to gain muscle at the same time. It just generally takes a long time to see any results. Like a year or more.. if ever

[confucius say]

Are we still debating this? Geez. Anybody who has watched him for 3 years can tell you he is smaller/leaner/slimmer whatever. Semantics.

[MSUDawg4Life]

Not debating anything at all.

Dak says he hasn't lost any pounds. I'm satisfied. Other people may be trying to save face, but I'm satisfied.

[mstatefan91]

I believe he is slimmer. I also believe that the reason he is slimmer is because he shed some fat and replaced it with muscle in the off season.

Whether that has any real impact on our offensive scheme... meh probably not. This was probably more of a decision to give Dak better pocket mobility for nfl scouts.

If it greatly increases his overall speed on the ground, I will be surprised. But we shall see soon enough

Y'all nerds need to periscope him and find out the amazing truth behind smaller yet bigger. Turn your periscope on and check him out. see what he's eating.

Guarantee you that if you had a body fat test from last season to compare to this season that Dak would have a greater percentage of lean body mass this year. All you have to do is look at his face.

Please Lord let the season start so this will end

Youre tripping me out. How about this: I'll bet you all of your Vcash that his weight at the NFL combine will not be the same as what the roster says.

There's the link to the thread. Check your responses. The first thing you said was that he's not slimmer which is not correct. The next post you say it's he's probably the same weight with less body fat. Anyone who has ever weight trained will tell you that doesn't make sense. If I'm 230 at 6.8 bf and then 6 months later I'm 230 at 4% bf, I'm bulkier at 4% than I was at 6.8% because my muscles got bigger to offset the fat loss. Dak lost some bulk and looks completely different as a result of a completely different set of stimuli to his body. All I'm saying is you immediately got defensive (and I'm not sure why) and are turning this into a stupid argument. I'm excited Dak has remade his body and think it's a precursor to a big senior year.

Why do you hate an app that you don't even understand so much? Sorry you're old, I guess.

[BeastMan]

Dak has done literally the same thing that Lebron James just did with his body. Slim down and improve flexibility for dividends in agility and durability. What does Dak and Bron have in common? Their bodies will take on the wear and tear to carry their teams and they wanted to make improvements to accommodate that. This is the next level for Dak and I cannot figure out why some people act like this is a negative. This is going to make Dak a better thrower which fits MSU's returning weapons and make him less injury prone. This is a really good thing.

You shouldn't have linked that thread. Got defensive? You got defensive after the very FIRST response in the thread when Flabloser said he didn't see it. Your response?


If you don't think Dak has lost weight (A) You're blind (B) Need to click the link and listen to Mike Detillier on OOB who has covered him since HS (C) Roster weights are as worthless as weights on women's drivers licenses

I say I'm not buying it either and you go off the deep end.

Here's the bottom line: You say Dak has lost weight or we need to listen to Detillier. Dak says he hasn't lost any weight.

I think I'll go with what Dak says. Period. End of story.

[mstatefan91]

You are actually less bulky at 4% bf as compared to say 7% bf at the same body weight.

Want to know why? It takes less muscle than it does fat to put on the same amount of weight.

These are the biggest 2 points: (1) You say Dak didn't lose weight/trim down/cut up. We'll see what the NFL combine says. You show me one roster weight that matches what the combine says. Don't worry, I'll wait... (2) You say we won't throw it more in 2015. We'll find that out pretty quickly.

I'm more than confident in both my assertions.

Man, just say you were wrong. That's all you have to do.

I never said he is not cut up. Draft day has nothing to do with what he weighs today or last week.

Never said we won't throw the ball more. We have a senior QB and better receivers, we should get better production from our passing game. We're not going to become a "pass-centric" offense though.

If you're going to write articles, you have to get used to people disagreeing with you. It's not an attack on you personally. People just disagree with your point, that's all. Calm down.

There is literally nothing in that article that is inaccurate and the linked thread shows you going full circle changing your argument numerous times and also arguing things that weren't said. I'm fine with my stance on this.

May be true if ~40 year old working out after work. NOT true and it can be done way faster if you are a ~20 year old eating right and working out 7 hours a day, 6 days a week.

This whole topic is so stupid. If Dak is leaner (even at the same weight), and if this in some way makes him the slightest bit less effective as a 3rd-and-short back, then that will mean we have plans to use Fitzgerald or Staley some in those situations.

Regardless, any changes Dak has made were obviously done intentionally with the purpose of making him better; so I trust they will do just that.

It's not like Dak reached his senior year of college after tons of success as a junior and said, 'Eh, who cares about football, I'm going to go ahead and prepare for my life in sales.'

[Jack Lambert]

I am sorry but I know you don't know what you are talking about. I don't talk much smack about myself but I have been lifting weights since I was 15. I have competed in two body building shows in my life. Today I have 20" biceps. If you don't believe me I will meet you at any home game and let you see. Any time a body builder diets down for a body building show he loses weight. He is still working out like crazy and he is eating correctly. They get lighter every single time. You muscles have fat in in them. When you burn fat your muscle don't get smaller but the the sizes gets smaller due to the fat being gone. At the begining of next summer go into the gym and look at the body builders. Than about 8 weeks later go back and look at them again after they have been getting ready for a show. The will be very lean and ripped but they will be smaller.

Dak is slimmer and he is lighter. No doubt in my mind from what I see. however I would rather see Dak at 215 or 220 solid than to see him at 230 with fat in the muscle. I think he is gong to be a animal this year.
