Everything about this guy is a huge positive (except for the fact he called our color crimson instead of scarlet..):
Very good athlete
Very good size
Plays hard
Excellent student
Could play either defense or offense
Loves Nebraska and really wants to play for the Scarlet and Cream
Suh was 6'4" & 275lb out of high school. Piper is 6'4" & 275lb out of high school. He has some serious work ahead to stay the same.You could not ask for a kid with a better GBR spirit/loyalty than this kid, but just from photos he looks like he might get pancaked by an OSU O-Line. He has some serious work in front of him to morph into a Suh frame if he wants to play at a Suh level.
It makes for an intriguing track & field season for him these next two years.Good interview. Dunked younger than Frost , but hasn't thrown the shot as far. Will be intersting to see if he does before he graduates.
6'4" 275 out of first semester of his junior year. On a class C weight program. Zach Sterup was 6'8" 275 out of HS, 6'8 320 @ NU. I, too, am unconcerned.Suh was 6'4" & 275lb out of high school. Piper is 6'4" & 275lb out of high school. He has some serious work ahead to stay the same.
Wow aren't you Debbie Downer.His first name is Garrett. Started using Ethan as a freshman to avoid just this situation.
Seriously, if this kid never plays a down (unlikely), he is a great add for the locker room. Great family, hard working kids. This is a good get on so many levels.

So let me guess. "he only played against class C talent." Which oh by the way describes about 50 of our all Americans. INCLUDING our current coach.
He didn't say anything bad, he said, this is a good get on so many levels.....if this kid never plays a down (unlikely), he is a great add for the locker room. Great family, hard working kids. This is a good get on so many levels.
I think you totally miss read that Ht. He didn't say anything bad, he said, this is a good get on so many levels.....
Not trying to start a fight butwhy use the term "Unlikely", thenThat is correct. I'm high on this kid.
I think you just misread the term. I went back and read what he initially wrote..."Seriously, if this kid never plays a down (unlikely), he is a great add for the locker room.

Looks like he was saying, if Piper never plays a down which is unlikely...in other words, he sees Piper getting on the field. But if he never does, Piper is a great add for the locker room because he is from a great family that has hard working kids, so Piper is a great commitment on so many levels.
Good to hear. Maybe Suh can give him some pointers.Suh was 6'4" & 275lb out of high school. Piper is 6'4" & 275lb out of high school. He has some serious work ahead to stay the same.
