Well I might as well change my name to HighSchoolScout or always looking ahead.I'm sorry I keep looking so far into the future, and let me assure you I am nowhere near giving up on this season yet, however, here's another look at a prospect coming into this year's draft that would look fing fine in black and gold.

Alex Mack-I like to call him Mack Truck-C, Cal.

6-4 310 lbs

1st round projected center

I love the video

The part where he finishes the play so strong he goes tumbling after and takes out a ref is classic. I’ll be keeping an eye on this guy. He looks like a beast.

I’m pretty happy when he takes out three defenders.

Nice

Picking him up would give us 3 centers, but then both Stapleton and Hartwig can work as guards, too.

i can vouch

that mack is legit. i live half an hour from cal berkeley and have seen him play numerous times. the guy is a monster.

You can bring a 40 and smoke a cigarette and call me from the parking lot asking me what time the game is, and I'll tell you. You can even say 'F--- you, Steve!' Actually, don't say that, that wouldn't be very nice." -Steve Friend, Head Coach, Chabot College Gladiators Baseball

highschoolsteeler?

how bout…HighSchoolGM. this mack kid looks incredible. however, we have 7 months until we can potentially pick him up. you should come up with a cure for our oline with our current roster, and then email arians…cuz you know he needs the help.

Thanks

To tell you the truth, my dream job would be somewhere in the Steeler’s front office. But yea I’ll pull up Arians on the phone and voice our concerns ;).
