Delbert I live in Summerville. I used to live in Nchuck…right off 78 and 26 just within a walk from Charleston Southern and Trident Hospital. I live off mainstreet in Summerville now.

Jets are taking Hill.
I’m confused by how he could be selected before former ELITE RECRUITs Rueben Randall or Alshon Jeffrey, both of whom played in PASSING OFFENSES.

Rueben Randall and the Penn St DT are both still in there, too.
The two players I just mentioned played in the SEC, too.

Cordy Glenn didn’t go in the first round? WTF? Whoever coached him must be some sort of kung fu panda failure costing him millions.
__________
First of all he’s a tweener, many GMs aren’t sure to draft him as a OG or OT, next OGs don’t have the “value” as other positions like Tackle.
That’s not the case with a WR that is 6-4 215lbs. and runs a 4.36 forty, where 5 or 6 WRS that are smaller & slower go ahead of him.
Hill’s off the board to the Jets, the WORST possible place for him.
The NY media is going to eat him alive.

They said that because they cannot say anything good about his hands.
Did they talk about any of the 1st round WRs blocking?

Enter yellerjacketNchsSC – I kind of hated to leave, but I went for 2 years in the SF Bay Area and then 2 in Hawaii
Through the ’80s and ’90s, we went back to Charleston every year on vacation.

With GT having 3 WR’s gone in the first 2 rounds the last few years we can probably expect to recruit big physical receivers. Especially with Calvin Johnson being on the Madden cover. Trying to sell the fact that you as the WR will be doing more blocking than catching is the hardest thing for us though.

Delbert, glad to see you come back to the Low Country for vacations. Voted top travel destination by travel and leisure. After living here for 2 years it’s pretty obvious why people flock here. The history, food, culture, and friendly atmosphere everywhere you go is like no other.

“They said that because they cannot say anything good about his hands.”
You may have just answered your own question about why he was falling.
“Did they talk about any of the 1st round WRs blocking?”
Yes. Mayock alluded to Floyd’s blocking multiple times.

@ WnE…….you can be as effin’ negative as you want to be, and as you ALWAYS are, but I will say this…..Stephen Hill is a better MAN than you will ever be. He is a class young man, and whether he succeeds in the NFL or not, he’s got more class in his little toe than you have ever had in your entire life. You are a TOTALLY WORTHLESS POS !!!

The guy that recently committed said it was because he likes to block. Jenkins and Weems of the Falcons were really good blockers. Weems was deadly on special teams.

Jenkins was also a flop. He was highly touted in the draft and didn’t show ME anything while playing for the Falcons. What do I know though??

Stephen Hill owes Terrance Mathis a huge debt, imagine how RAW Hill would have been had he NOT worked out with Mathis?
Mathis saved him from being a 4th or 5th round draft pick, all by himself, even though Hill had to accept the instruction and be willing to be coached.
Thank you Mr. Mathis for saving the GT fanbase from embarrassment.

yellerjacketNchsSC – I sure was glad when they finally tore down that old bridge from from the islands to downtown. I used to get light-headed driving over that one. I was riding back from Mt. Pleasant on my Suzuki and a school bus passed me up near the top. I nearly lost it and went over the piece of angle iron that they called a rail.

@ yellerjacket….I have nothing against WalMart workers in any position, nor do I have any disregard for people commonly referred to by the unfortunate term “retard,” nor do I have anything against you because of the views you stated on the other blog. You simply stated your view and moved on; there’s nothing at all wrong with that. WnE, on the other hand, HATES EVERYTHING GA TECH, even though he apparently went to school there, and he has NEVER said a SINGLE GOOD WORD about anything or anybody connected to Tech. And he says the same things over and over and over and over again. He is, like I said, a TOTALLY WORTHLESS POS !!!

By the way, that bridge they demolished on TV a couple of years ago was the *new* old bridge, not the one that scared the p– out of me. I’ve rappelled down cliff, but I had nightmares about that bridge. Alright, I’ll shut up about it now.
