Freshman OT John Turntine III played at around 272-274 pounds all season for North Crowley as a senior. 

OnTexasFootball can report that the freshman early enrollee is already up to 283-285 pounds, and is expected to hit around 295 by August. 

Wow, that’s a big TE 😉😂

Said before, but I really believe seeing him a lot over the last 2-3 years ... he will play at 305-310 for the majority of his career. 

can he play LG😂

Beat me to it 

How many spicy chicken sandwich combos from JCL is that? 

But we were told he only has two years to get ready. 😎

As long as he's adding the weight in his ass and not his gut. 

I really like taking a nimble but physical OT like Turntine and stacking weight on him. If he can remain patient off and nasty on the field, he has a chance to shine.

Hope he outplays Siani and takes the RT position. That would be an epic move

Let the young man eat!

Wishful thinking and not sure I understand the logic. Siani is not sitting the bench with that price tag

Logic is that he is elite and beating out someone, even with that price tag means we got a * for the next few years.  Sark gonna put the best out there this year, price tag be damned.

Not this year.

@Gerry Hamilton Did we get an official height measurement as well?  I’m guessing in the 6’3” range?

You know that probably good weight too given how hard they’re working these guys. Love it!!

Marty Cherry must be hanging around the field house. I see his brother, Mike, 3-4 times a week in the gym.

This may be a dumb question but are there rules about wearing "weighted" pads to add a few pounds?

Well according to the arm chair jim moore award winning offensive line coaches on here, He’ll be wasted because Kyle flood sucks and need to be fired.

No. IMO, 6-3.5 or 6-3 5/8 W/O shoes

I found out recently they don’t really go there anymore. I LIVED on the chicken fried steak and mashed potatoes after a hard practice or for a late night snack. They don’t know what they’re missing!

That's OK as long as he's a strong boy, right?

tackle yes. Will very likely cross train at both (most guys have at Texas outside Kelvin Banks who pretty much had to be the starting LT as a true freshman and they had to get him ready in weeks)
