You don't want Fowler at 270-275. Muschump had him playing at that weight his sophomore year. He was noticeably slower and has said so.

Quote:The injury benefitting fowler is about the dumbest thing I've heard. Yes, the injury isn't a career ended or anything like that, but there are far faaaar more negatives than positives here


He missed a year of football and maybe some on field experience. Thats about the only negative. On the other hand he was able to improve his body and get his football mind right

He could have improved his body without an ACL tear.

He also can "get his football mind right" without a torn ligament in his knee.


It's just dumb
The young man has a wonderful attitude. Can't wait to see him wreaking havoc on the field.

I would argue that he was 80% percent committed to the weight room 20% film study while rehabbing the knee. Without the injury most of his time would have been invested in game prep

Could not agree more. On field action is invaluable.
I think it'd be cool to see Fowler, Jack and Telvin at LB with Yannick, Marks, Jackson and Odrick on the line at times.
