    Grayson Gunter

    I've seen it said on here where he's borderline D1. Just saw where Arkansas offered him.

    Congrats to the young man. Maybe he'll take that offer.

    One thing about MC players for this group- they were so poorly coached last year that HAS to be taken into account when evaluating them. Now, we'll see what happens not that Hall is gone and Peterson is there and see what improvements are made.

    Bielema seems to have a real eye for talent at TE. If he thinks Gunter is good enough, that's good enough for me

    Lance kendricks
    Travis beckhum
    Garrett graham

    And now hunter Henry... Quite a list

    So does Dan for that matter. If Gunter signs with us, I think he would be in the H-Back/FB mold rather than the H-back/TE mold.

    I remember a lot of our fans didn't want Gus Walley at one time and he has turned out to be a solid player.

    I want Christian Roberson or pass at TE. I'm just not a Gunter fan. I'm sure he's a great kid.

    Paul has said before that we are going to take two TE's if I'm not mistaken. It would make some sense for us to take a H-back/FB hybrid because most of our other TE's are H-back/TE types- Walley, Hammond, Christy, Dontae Jones, and Farrod Green.

    Gunter isn't really a H-Back/FB type. He's 6'6" 220lbs. He's gonna be 6'6" 240-250lbs. I'm just not high on him. If Dontea goes to prep school for a year then he & Roberson are your 2 TE.

    Gunter WAS NEVER going to State. His dad hates STATE, and if Arkansas offered, his family could exhale because that was their escape goat. That kid would never help us out in Dan's offense. Before you answer, name one TE in Dan's offense that was 6'6 240/250 that fit his scheme. Gunter is a perfect fit for Arkansas, hell, he doesn't even fit in Hugh's offensive scheme. He's a blocking TE in a 2 tight situation that can be thrown drag routes and fades in redzone situations.

    Still glad we offered though because it keeps Ole Miss from getting a free player. By offering, Gunter either goes somewhere else or Ole Miss wastes a scholarship on him.

    Damn, so we are now that petty, that we are hoping OM "wastes" a scholarship. They seem to do that just fine without our help.....Kincade and Buchanan. When you sign a juco QB it's evident you are extremely concerned about the development of your high school signees

    Oh- I thought he was 6'3" 220.

    I don't know about our chances of getting Roberson, it's down to us and Florida. He's from Georgia, so I'd say 50/50 best case, unless he secretly favors us. ??

    I don't think it's petty at all. Those 25 scholarships that each SEC team has are precious, precious things. Any little edge that we can get adds up over time.

    I doubt we offer kids in the hope and thinking OM will offer and "waste" a scholarship. If we offer a guy it's because we will take the guy if numbers work out not because of trying to manipulate OM.
