Went to the Breakfast with the Tigers at the Stadium this morning.
I don't know what TBJ actually weighs. Mizzou listed him at 305 last fall. He looks awfully trim for a 300 lb lineman. Don't misunderstand me, I don't doubt the reported weight. I think it speaks to his conditioning that he carries that much weight, but looks so slim.
Also, TBJ told Gervino that the primary reason he came back was to get his degree. Whether he said if soley for the benefit of the audience or was sincere, it was great hearing him say it. If he has a great senior year, given his star power coming out of high school, his play, his dedication to overcoming injuries, and his attitude about Mizzou, he's going to move into my top 5 all time favorite Tigers.
