I noticed the GT site updated player weight for the new season. If anyone is curious I kept track of the gains.

I've excluded walk-ons and anyone with 3 lbs or less difference.

Interesting ! Looks like Jordan-Swilling and Carpenter could play more with a three point stance ?? Hansen working hard to get more mobile ?? Tufele might be a BEAST . Dawson should be interesting to watch.....that's a lot of weight, hope it's mostly muscle.

Kelton Dawson was a beast in the spring game, was playing with power on the d-line, took me awhile to figure out who he was as I pictured Dawson as speed rush DE/LB when he was recruited. The 33lb gain explains exactly why I was confused

Thanks for all of this work. It’s great. I do wonder how accurate the before and after weights are though. I’ve always thought that the height and weight numbers are fudged a bit. I took a picture with Justin Thomas and Lance Austin at fan day two years ago. According to the stat sheet, they should both be taller than me but the pictures don’t show that.

Can't wait to see the program weights.

I think Tech is one of the few schools that try to report accurate weights for it's players pre season. Then the programs are printed and everybody seems to get a 10 pound boost. Btw, I'm guessing that the table is reporting the actual weight of our freshman. High schools are even worse then colleges on this.

Thanks for keeping up with this!

Very unusual for a CB to lose 10 lbs like Askew.Sumpin ain't right.
I would doubt Telefe at 315 makes PJ pleased.
Carpenter gained a bunch ,yet is #1.Love to see a BIG headhunter.
I would like to see Askew start for 3 yrs at CB.
Ponchez-Mason needs some of p/t from Jarrett.We need the size.

How are you gauging the true freshman? Many of them have said they gained weight yet this says they lost weight.

Stephen Dolphus WR 6'5' 210 to 205 . Lost 5 lbs
Jalen Camp WR 6'2' 213 to 217 . Gained 4 lbs

This is interesting. I'd like to hear from the S&C coach about Dolphus losing 5 lbs and Camp who is 3 inches shorter gaining 4lbs to go up to 217?

Tariq Carpenter DB 6'2' 188 to 218 . Gained 30 lbs. I wonder if they are thinking making him into something like a hybrid linebacker.

Thank you for compiling this information.

Freshman appear to be wrong compared to their interviews.

Juanyeh Thomas: "I went from 200 to 213 and I’m 6’2 1/2"

Christian Malloy: "I’ve gained around 10 pounds. I’m at 5-foot-10-inches and 200 pounds."

Jordan Domineck: "When I signed on February seventh I was 6’3” and about 215, now I’m 6’4” and about 230"

What about the current weights for the top two QBs, Taquon Marshall and Lucas Johnson? Did they add or lose weight from last year?
