i think tom is a prettty good coach stick drills or not. at least he squats and does ols.
heard you got 485 for the bsq today.
I did 485, but I actually finished with 525 and missed at 550. Who do you know at BU?
lol, i know peps. i also heard you used straps for the pc. good job on the results bro
Hey what were your numbers like coming out of high school and how have you progressed over the past few years?
Ya I’ve been using straps all off-season so far, it takes a lot of pressure off of my wrists and lets me focus more on the pull. My numbers out of high school were pretty good I suppose but not extraordinary by any means. 275-285 on bench, 245 on clean, 415-420 on squat. My vertical has remained about the same since my senior year when I did 38" at a camp at La. Tech. Speed has greatly improved even though I’ve gone from 185-205.
i think when using straps for the pc/ps its diffcult to rack the weight, also i always rack the weight then drop so straps are not really needed for the hang cleans/snatches i always use straps.
Ya I can see where you are coming from, especially if you strap onto the bar really tight. I try not to wrap it too tight for that very reason. I assume that you must know Odell from back in your college days?
dont know him.
hows spring ball going
I just saw your spring game. You made some “sick” plays, and caught the ball real well I thought. You also never went down easy and broke a lot of tackles. Szymanski should have thrown the ball to you on those crossing patterns more often, you were open a lot. Catching the football didnt seem that easy for your other teammates either, for some reason there were a lot of dropped passes. But you really stood out among the receivers, and do you plan on getting your #21 jersey back?
Thanks for the kind words man, I want to wear a single digit for next season so we will see what happens…
Were you 100% healthy during that game? I sure hope you can play all the games this year without an injury holding you back.
Ya I feel good man, no injuries to speak of. I pulled my hammy last year during camp, which I would attribute to fatigue and possibly taping my ankles before that practice (rather than using my braces/sleeves). I’ll be ready to roll next year 100%, no doubt in my mind.

He probably could have made his way to the NFL as a LB. His brother Steve was a LB also I think. He also does very well in his academics, and could quit football and be a successful business man. He can do it all…
Ya, Daniel can run with just about anybody. All around a tremendous guy from a great family.
