This hypothetical is not based on our recruiting class. So:
You are recruiting an OL. You have two 6'4" guys, one weighs 340 and one weighs 260. You think the ideal playing weight for both is 300. You feel that the heavier guy could be a little more agile with weight loss and that the lighter guy can be a little more powerful with weight gain, but otherwise, the two guys are fairly similar. You can only take one OL.
Would you rather have the heavier guy to lose weight or the lighter guy to gain weight?

Depends on the feet. The big guy pretty well describes Andy Levitre. The light guy pretty much describes Doug Nienhius.
I see a couple of the signees as potential OTs. Great length and good feet as shown by their basketball skills. Of course, I see OL as a tremendous need right now, so I take both the light guy and the heavy guy.

I'm thinking it's a LOT easier for most kids that age to work out and add weight while keeping or building athleticism than it is to break bad habits, work out and lose weight and build athleticism.

Is the lighter guy a wrestler? Wrestlers usually don't have any problem at all adding weight once wrestling season's over with.
