Knowing nothing about Coastal or this player, I guess Tonga has his work cut

out for himself. I bet this kid is quick and strong, and, in a battle where conventional wisdom is "low man wins", leverage will be a challenge for Tonga. I will be interested to watch the match up.

Getting leverage on a guy 7 inches shorter is hard. At 290, the guy must be

Almost exactly what it is however, KT only needs to let the C occupy 1 GAP...

Love Tejan, but he struggled some against huge DTs

Rarely. He dominated huge DTs even more.

5'9 290? That is a STOUT dude.

That could mean his center of gravity is pretty low. Depending upon his strength

But then realizes he's CC's version of Tejan Koroma who was very very good.

Empey only weighs 303

If they list him at 290... he’s probably 275 at best. Teams always lie up on weight.

I expected him to be built like a block of granite with quickness and a low CG.

Incredibly dense and low center of gravity. Like Tejan. I wouldn't count on him

The advantage here isn't the ability to push the guy around. The advantage is unobstructed views which will allow him to
