Young man is a winner. Glad to have him.

Not sure he is with all the measurables, but he’s got very good hands, runs very good routes, and has good size. Maybe speed holds him back but he could be a future pro.

Oh! Gee!

Being a great route runner and playing with a good QB can neutralize speed concerns. Jerry Rice wasn't a burner by any means but is still probably the best pro WR I've seen.

 

[Wrinkle]

He's got a chance to be really really good by the time he leaves campus. Definite pro potential

It didn't hold his dad back with Miami. Size, hands and very good routes can land you a roster spot.

Dr. Bob identified this kid early on and was spot on

Reminds me of Chris Collinsworth who is same height, skinny, and not particularly fast. But was great.

Art Monk wasn't a blazer, but caught a lot of passes in a long career.

There have been a bunch of WRs that lacked speed but made up for it with technique and guys with blazing speed that couldn't stick in league because they lacked it. New England won a bunch of superbowls with the former.

Does he have the potential to grow into an actual Tight End and not just a WR playing TE? He's got good size and seems to have a decent frame. SU Athletics lists him at 216. Can he put on 30 or so pounds without losing his athleticism?

With the proper dedication to S&C…

he could solve our TE *and* DT depth issues.

Maybe some of the people looking for him will not be looking for Sean Tucker.

Love his hands.

Huge plays. 2 TDs - 141 yards !!!

 

[Finwad32]

He’s a stud. Goes up and gets it. Great hands.

Even on his drop, he had a slick jersey tug on the defender to pull in front of the ball last second to put him in position. Tried to body catch it on the chest and it bounced to the turf.

I didn’t see either official on that sideline reach for the flag, but I was wondering if one would’ve come if he’d caught it.

That’s the subtle stuff that the best can do without getting picked up on.

 

[rocklloyd]

Player of year for us

 

[Libero2]

It seems that 90% of our big plays through the air are because of Gadsden.

all offseason the talk will be about if he can be first team All-ACC, and if we can have a second target step up and become a real consistent weapon

 

[OrangeDW]

Rob Moore, Marvin, Kevin Johnson, Mike Williams, Gadsden….that’s my list since I’ve been old enough.
