I'll have more in a few hours. Talking to Tucker later this afternoon.

That guy gets off blocks!

I love this get. I liked when I say when his name first got brought up, but I hadn't heard anything recently. Glad we got another DL. He plays mean and I love it. Give him probably 2 years in the weight room and he could be a beast. He should easily be able to get to 285 290 with his frame at 6'3"

The kid plays mean. And he's pretty quick for a dude his size.

"[Coach D.K. McDonald] said how he loved my tape, he loved my motor, kind of my violence on the field and the way I play"

Yes, I'll take a D-lineman that describes his style of play as "violent".

I watched his highlights a couple weeks ago and thought the same thing. I wanted him as a Cyclone right away when I saw that, as long as he can keep it clean. I think his third play in the highlights it looked like he got a pretty nasty roughing the passer flag

Violently annihilating an opposing QB in your third clip is a strong way to keep a viewers attention peaked.

I also really enjoy that a borderline late hit made it into the presentation. That's just fantastic on all levels.

 

[Brandon]

Very aggressive and looks to have a motor!

That kid has meat hooks, once he got hands on the ball carrier they were done. I like the violence, but at some point you have to use your head. Plenty of time to learn that coming up though.

Pretty decent other offers

He's 6'3 260 and runs down a few running backs in that highlight video. Yes please.

Get this kid to 285 with that mean streak, we've got ourselves a football player.

I thought he killed the kid. ****, maybe he did.

I saw the first play, and I am sold. Welcome to CycloneNation Tucker!

Great read on Tuckers first impression of Iowa State from Halsted last November - http://247sports.com/Bolt/What-Iowa-State-looks-like-from-an-outsiders-perspective-49388381

 

[CYCLNST8]

Hopefully this Tucker is as good as the last! I, for one, would never complain about stockpiling the D-line. The more the merrier.

I like how he keeps his head up and advances with speed while tracking what is going on. Seems to give him great vision.

I don't think he was the only casualty in the making of this film, may he rest in peace.

This might be my new favorite highlight film due to the fact that I can't remember ever seeing another Hudl clip where you could argue that the player in question had somewhere around five or six personal fouls in there. I mean that second to last play where all he does is just crush some opposing player out of no where well after the play is over is just fantastic.

yeah there was several plays on both sides of the ball that were 15 yard flags...and I still love it. You can teach a kid to watch those types of plays easier than you can coach a kid to be aggressive like that.

 

[BikeSkiClone]

Mean streak, quick, strong, and smart (w/ the 4.4 GPA).

But man I'd hate to be one of the college recruiting assistants schools have that have to filter through the terrible highlight tapes before tapes like this one get to a coach. And even then, to evaluate kids with what could be zero knowledge of the opponent -- are they good and the kid is dominating (yay!)? or are they **** and just making a kid look good? especially on out of state, more remotely located kids

Holy ****, does he kill someone at 0:44?

I don't see any teardrop tats in his profile pic, though.
