Evan Baylis article

Baylis committed early to Oregon as a tight end.

But since he committed, he has turned into one of Colorado's finest linebackers, a large, rangy, fast 6-foot-5, 228-pound search-and-destroyer from the outside. Baylis runs the 40 in 4.7 seconds, big-time speed for his size.

Interesting. I wonder where he will play for us.

I was wondering the same thing earlier inn the year...he would make an excellent LB.

Easy answer to your Q is are they recruiting other TEs? Because it doesn't appear so.

IMO recruiting for position is overrated. Coach will get him on the team and then find out where he fits best.

Still needs to put on a good 15-30 lbs but appears to be getting there.

No it is not! But it is true the staff is not so rigid as to under use a PSA's potential. That being said, TE is a (larger) LB with ball handling skills. We need TEs more than LBs at this point!

A lot can change during the next 2-3 years. It's nice to know that he could be a candidate at LB.

Also sounds like a great student with his 3.7 GPA and graduating in January. Is he planning to enroll in the spring?

I mean there isn't much point to graduate a semester before if you aren't. Hopefully he can play LB for us, Colt has TE locked for a while IMO.

My hope is that with Evan Baylis we incorporate a lot of two tight-end sets with the intent of spreading the defense out via the seam route with one of them, and have the other be a safety valve. It could be pretty tough to stop..

From looking at his highlights, Baylis may be just that kind of player. He was sent on a lot of short routes in the middle of the field in space. Seems like with Colt's superior athletecism, Baylis might fit well into the safety valve role(provided his blocking improves, the recruiting sites mention this a lot).

Well we had Pharoah Brown, a Michigan TE commit, here for the USC game, and next weekend we'll host Jalen Cope-Fitzpatrick, a USC TE commit and also high school teammate of Jake Rodrigues. So maybe the coaches are looking at Baylis on defense

[TheMaehlMan]

The coaches want two TEs in this class, that's why we are looking for another one.
