Vince Genatone
- Thread starter inWV
- Start date
Looks like a Kanak right in our own backyard. Albeit 1 inch shorter but probably tougher.
Who is trying to get Hickman to transfer? And how?
I heard the staff had him lose weight to play receiver and then moved him back to TE after Fidone got hurt and asked him to gain weight. Not a good look for a staff with a reputation for not developing its talent.
Not suggesting Hickman is an NFL talent but that kid needed to be 225 plus regardless of position WR/TE to be beneficial to us or his future career. Last time I seen him looked about 200 max
They are looking at all 3 spots for Appleget, TE, OLB and ILB. He is up there with RTB now, I believe he is going to visit Iowa St, Kansas St and Northwestern and will be at a satallite camp in St Louis later this week.
Yes, I know that. Just saying it's messed up if we don't offer him but yet keep a scholly for Hickman who is too skinny and slow to play TE, and way too slow to play WR.
Updated article on Vince:
Listed as 6’1” 205 lbs on Rivals. Father played LB at Wash St.
He worked out at Cal and broad jumped 127 inches, which would have been 2nd place for LBs at 2019 NFL combine.
He works out for Nebraska this Friday and said he’ll run the 40 despite not having done it since he was a freshman.
No scholly offer yet from Nebraska, but you’d think they’re going to be serious about him.
Will also go workout for Wash St., Northern Illinois and Boise St.

Only 6 foot tall and that will be a negative with this staff, but his arm length is 6'3". He's got rare explosiveness. He'll work out well on Friday. I wouldn't be surprised to see him get an offer, possibly even this weekend.
Genatone ran a legit 4.45 40 yard dash today apparently. Still no offer, I don't know why he wasn't offered. Maybe they think he's a tweener between a safety and a LB?

These are the players other schools develop into studs, or at least contributors. If we can’t develop someone like him, something seems wrong.
