Of course he did, but he got the recipe for the potion from CCS

It’s unfortunate that in 2020 the NFL is still a place where taking balls to the face can cost you a job.

This was arguably one of our best players....no wonder we blow chunks. Love Mitch, but we need to get athletes back in the program.

He's not going to be drafted.

No,but they didn't get him involved in the passing attack and he regressed. He was primarily a blocking TE last year.  He didn't get any better at catching the ball or running routes under KB. This hurts his chance of getting drafted. I mean it is not all on KB  because the QB carousel were all bad. The coaching and lack of talent did not do him any favors for draft status. Hopefully he can get on a team and develop into a role player or starter eventually.

That could not have felt good...couple of drops too. Not a good start. 

 

 

This is what happens when you learn from CKB!
At least it wasn't to his balls.

He got hit in the face with a ball which made him unable to successfully finish the drill. **** happens. Why is he all of a sudden a bad player?

Being the 15th - 20th  best TE in college football is awesome and means you were an amazing player.

The other measures were pretty low too...and I think he only caught one ball in that drill (but he was obviously off after the ball hit him in the head). One day won’t be a killer but he needs to let loose going forward. I still think he will be a free agent and not drafted...but this may give him a better chance to make a team.
