YOUR FREAKISH RECRUIT OF THE DAY: TERRENCE CODY
We normally wouldn’t highlight a 3-star recruit, but in Rivals’ case we think they have it wrong: Terrence Cody is a four-star recruit on size alone, quality be damned. Something that big just needs four stars, agile or not. Cody, a juco defensive lineman out of Perkinston Gulf Coast Community College, may be the first who lists “plate tectonics” and “controlling tides” as hobbies. He stands 6′ 5″ and weighs 395 pounds, meaning he’s a steak dinner shy of 400 pounds at any given moment.
Provided he stays with his verbal commit to Alabama–and we pray he does, since sudden movement could have an impact on water supplies and the gravitational/magnetic fields of the earth, and that means no internet for ten minutes NOOOOO–nicknames will be necessary for Cody. We suggest Antarctica, Galactus, and Saturn, and salivate at the thought of the world’s first 1-5-5 defense.
Wanna know what Cloverfield is about? Spoiler! It’s about Terrence Cody’s eight grade trip to New York City.

You know your big when there is no gap between your forehead and your nose, but enough room for a fat wrinkle……who needs a freakin helmet when the size of your head is 12- 5/8 ths WITHOUT the natty dreads….I think he gives Mangino a run for his money at the Golden Corral Dessert line….how do you actually measure a 40 yrd dash time since he has never actually had to run that far….ever?

I think he is ok as long as he stays away from any and all Ephredra based products…..Ripped Fuel…..it’ll melt the fat away, or kill you trying……….This could be Sabans first cardiac patient during his patented 4th Quarter program, not the 4th Quarter Pounder Program sponsored by McDonalds

I don’t believe for a second that Mr. Cody can run a 5.5 second 40-yard dash as his profile alleges. Or, in the alternative, if Mr. Cody can indeed run the 40 yard dash in 5.5 seconds, then I believe by law that Mr. Cody needs an entire truckload of oxygen tanks and an overnight hospital stay to recover. And Funyuns.

The original plan was to chain Major Applewhite to him, in order to prevent him from going to Texas. Major, upon learning of this, especially since his name contains a food name, fled.

Unfortunately, Saban won’t have time for 100 lbs. of his shit, and he will be reduced to normal size for an OLineman.

I knew we’d get to the point in “college” athletics when a student-athlete’s weight would exceed his SAT. Sort of like shooting your age in golf. Congrats, Cody.

J.J. says:
Looking for a nickname? I have a few suggestions.
Since this dude is the size of an average American dwelling, I think “Condo” Cody has a nice ring to it.
Or, since any land mass that large should probably have it’s own post office, I offer “Zip Code” Cody, or just “Zip” Cody.
He looks like a funky fellow and is as large as a 4H Fair prize winning bull, so his rap name should be Moo Ko Dee (”Moo” Cody )

So, theoretically, what would happen if Tebow was running a sneak (the unstoppable force) and ran into Terrence Cody (the immoveable object)?
I think we now know how the big bang started…
