There are times when he is the highest guy on the field, I know he is tall but to have leverage in college he needs to be low, b/c the low man wins. I would like to see clips on o-line.
Just to clarify I am not saying I don't like him, but he has some work to do to get an offer from us. I think he is one of the many that could help their stock at camp.

If you look at several of the top DTs in the pros today, they are in that range - JAX has 2 of them in Stroud and Henderson plus Seymour at NE and Haynesworth at TEN. If they are athletic enough to play the position, I love it. That is my hope for Worthington eventually, although he could slide over to OT as well.
Back to Antonio..... WOW!! He uses his size, quickness and hands well. I hope
OSU shows him some interest. I have heard they havent given him much attention to this point.
