Maybe a little slow but you can't coach the size and athleticism that boy has. Heard he had a career game high 5 TFL against Alcoa. I doubt any lineman that played Alcoa this year touched that number.
Stupidest thing I've seen all week right here. Upperman has been on the bad side of officiating all season. All the officials don't like bobby and it always hurts his team.
From talking directly to Ely they said they will honor the scholarship for 5 years no matter what! Even career ending injury. For an out of state student the price for everything is over 55,000 dollars for the first year.every year after is over 30,000 so for 5 years is over 175,000 dollars. Pretty good for him
Ely had complete full rides from TTU Austin Peay Murray State, Jacksonville State Eastern Kentucky ETSU Cambell. He was wanted by most D1-AA schools that don't offer athletic scholarships. He also had 3-4 preferred walk on offers at D1-A schools. Vandy WKU Memphis. He had a full ride to William and Mary which out of state is a 60,000 dollar scholarship. They have produced numerous defensive tackles in the nfl in the past few years. Shows what a Very good job he and the rest of the bees did this year.
Ely was better d lineman than any Alcoa d lineman. And if you want to say he wasn't there is no way in heck he wouldn't have started for Alcoa. He received more votes than all other 3 d lineman on the all state list for a reason. His stats were untouched by your d lineman. Which is why he is going to one of the most competitive D1-AA in the country. And from what I've heard, could possibly be talking to vandy.
