I was watching ESPN and I think it was Alabama that has a 6'11 player that weighs 400+ lbs.

I was wondering if there are any players in FCS bigger than a new player Weber State signed in the offseason that is 6'7 and weighs 340. We have a big oline averaging probably 300 but even still at last weeks scrimmage this 340 pounder stood out.

'Bama must think so but I have to wonder if a 6'11" 400 Lb 20 yer old kid can move sideways or back and forth...maybe plays nosetackle and literally clogs up the middle standing still

Saw in a local VA paper that VT's second string QB is 6'6" and has a 39.5 inch vertical jump

Alabama runs a 3-4. That's pretty much what they want their nose tackle to do.

Our biggest at Liberty is a slimmed down Asa Chapman at 6 5" and 380 lbs.

UNC has DT Marcus Felker at 6'1" and 370 lbs.

The 6'11" dude plays for Ole Miss.

He's got bigger boobs than a lot of women.

Bigger than mine

How about the biggest player on your team? By height, weight, both...or all 3.

Shawn Santos - DT - 304
Combo
Jon Vernon - LT - 6-5, 300

Montana has a freshman recruit that is 6'8" 335 lbs. He's grown a bit since the Scout page below.

In 2006, UCA played Henderson State, a fellow Gulf South Conference rival and they had a kid on the team that had transfered out of California. I have never seen anyone as big as this dude! They tried a swing pass to a WR and had him lead block..needless to say, he tripped over his own feet and the play went NOWHERE...but man he was huge!
