DE Walter "Scooter" Dublin (official thread)

I think they said he was 6'4" and 245 lbs.

Haha you added an inch and ten pounds to the kid! Quite the S&C coach you are.

Well, he does have a couple of months before the season, I'd be surprised if he didn't get up past 250, and they did say that he might have another inch or so in him.

For DEs, it all comes down to that first step.
The guys that have it are special.
You can't teach it.

Read it again. He isn't done growing and there's a great possibility of him growing another inch which would also mean he'll put on another 5-10lbs.

Dublin discusses moving to Columbus and the recruiting class. Dublin will wear #94.

It has been reported that DE Walter Dublin's most recent weigh in has him listed at 6'5, 271. Man, he really blew up.

Could get a look @ DT...

 

[BGriffBuckeye]

Wow, if he kept his speed, he could be a REAL threat in the middle.

He played some DT in high school because the team's starting DT got hurt. However, I see his physical progression as identical to some of the DEs we've had, such as Wilson and Gholston, whom all had ballooned to 270ish after spending a year with the S&C program without losing speed. Dublin could turn into another Gholston down the road.

I'm pretty sure that I read somewhere that he played most of his senior year at DT.

He did. It hurt his stats in his Sr year, but he did it for the team.

PETA is looking into it. Appears he has been kept in a pen and force fed fillet mignon.

With our depth at DT

With our depth at DT I was pondering what his latest measurables were and if he could slide down. If we get Thomas and Martin, and with Rose we'll have plenty of young DE's.

 

[BGriffBuckeye]

Well, he now seems to be about the same size Alex Barrow, who has been getting snaps at DT.

 

[BGriffBuckeye]

With the loss of Martin today, the door is wide open for Walter to step up and play big next year. If he was able to keep his speed after he "blew up" to the size he is now... he will be a MONSTER on the D-Line.

 

[scarletngray]

Sure does. I remember watching his video and being very impressed. Great first step. Great speed. Great motor. It's guys like Dublin that will afford OSU the opportunity to use Rose and Barrow on the inside, if needed.
