Watson too, he looked solid against Tech. Don't think he played in the bowl game to preserve his redshirt.

Agree, Watson did look good.

How about Adimora in the bowl game?  That dude showed up.  Is he still able to RS?

I thought he played on special teams.

Should have put an exclamation point after the first sentence above.  He played great on D in coverage and had a great 3rd down tackle short of the line to make.  Of course you are probably responding to my RS question on second read!  Thanks!

He played in every game, so he will be a Sophomore next year.

Huge news for our 2020 prospectus!

i do think he made the right call. Was a little inconsistent this year and can easily improve that. Plus if he does have an injury for some reason then he could still return for a fifth year since he redshirted.
 

Now only need to replace 2 OL. Have to think Okafor gets a spot and maybe a grad transfer or someone takes the next step!

Great to see him back next year. Thought he struggled with holding penalties at times this season. Another year should improve his skill and stock. Would think that an OL of Cosmi, Moore/Jones, Kerstetter, Angilau, and Okafor in some order would be solid. Allow most of the new guys to red shirt and build strength. Maybe add a grad transfer to man the other OT and slide Okafor inside.

Next year's OL should look like:

Sam Cosmi – Junior Angilau – Derek Kerstetter – Denzel Okafor – Christian Jones

Apparently Moore lost a lot of weight when he got injured.  May be tough to bulk him up enough.

Don't understand this. When I would get hurt, I'd add weight because of the lack of playing yet still eating like it's 1999.

Was he one of those TE type guys we hope to convert to a tackle?

Harder to work out and keep muscle mass when on your back and immobile.  I'd normally agree that getting hurt and becoming less active would definitely cause me to buy a new scale, but somehow he's just having difficulty gaining weight and working out etc. along with whatever gazillion calorie protein type diet he was on didn't keep the weight on while he was injured.
