“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23
This is as good as dawg porn, can’t wait to see him stiff arm some people!

Not bad…I’m curious if he uses the glide or spin technique. My older brother was either a 2 or 3 time Georgia HS shot put champ back in the day (I believe his record throw was around 63 ft.) To this day I vividly remember going to his meets as a younger kid, in which at some local/regional ones he was the clear favorite, and he’d actually throw a collegiate 16 lb shot and still easily win against everyone else throwing the 12 lb shot.
Shot putters almost universally are good dudes, though obviously they can be physically intimidating.

glide. the update has vid of it.
my brother throws too. PR was over 70′ with the 12lb (though it wasn’t a GHSA meet). He was at his peak then. Still throws but he doesn’t train like he did then.

Actually I just looked up his record…64 ft. was his collegiate PR, not HS, and he was an alternate on the ’96 Olympic team (I think he missed 3rd place by less than a foot, if memory serves me correctly.)

Yeah, he uses glide, although I thought that everybody had switched to spin a few years ago as spin was supposed to get more distance.

Did he go for two on the last touchdown or just miss the extra point?

+1 extra point for that one

He’d probably throw longer if he did the spin vs. the glide.

I wasn’t aware that he was a glider. No doubt the spin is superior but it can be very tough to learn, and for some they can never master it (throw as far/farther than the glide) regardless of training/coaching. Hence they have a lower overall ceiling as far as potential.

I don’t care if he spins, glides, or flies, the guy is a great athlete.

He’d make a great defensive end. Qwickness and speed plus tremendous strength and athleticism….Dawg Porn indeed!

“Qwickness”? Before you accuse, I know it’s wrong and no, I didn’t go to Tennessee.

Now ask how many didn’t notice when reading through. Seems natural spelled that way and when communications are open and breezing. And he seems fast enough to match Gurley’s second gear. What a hoot!
Now everyone who uses Autocorrect please raise your paw. Thought so. You are a good and honest bunch of Dawgs.

A long time ago, SWD had a running back named Gregory Graves who was an awesome TB as well as a track star in the discus and shot. He went to Tennessee and disappeared.
Daniel Buggs of Avondale placed in the 100, shot and long jump before a career as a WR with the Redskins out of W Virginia. Wasnt Herschel a field guy in HS, too?

In the 1970s we recruited a kid from Rome named Kennebrew who won state championships in both the 100 yard (it was yards, not meters, then) and the shot put. He never enrolled, but made it the NFL.

Unbelievable athlete who had no shot at qualifying academically.

Seems like there was this kid awhile back who won state in the shot and the 100. I think his name was Walker…wonder what ever became of him??

Let me know Chubb’s time in the bobsled run. Martial arts will be taught to our team so we’ll be able to begin to make another comparison before Christmas.
