I did an adult fitness program at LSU a long time ago run by a PhD exercise physiologist. He said they ran body fat on some of the linemen at the time, Ramsey Dardar is the name I remember, and it was around 3%.

I doubt that his body is made to take that weight.

My 2¢

I’ll half-jokingly say I don’t care what his body fat percentage is; 400 of anything is a load to move no matter what.

As for being unaware of what he was signing… really? Do you always sign things without reading them first to see what it is you’re committing to? Last time I did that I ended up married (just kidding, dear ).

That is a load of crap. There is no letter that obligates a player to go anywhere. Also as to Hill’s weight, that will be something he will regret during the offseason as Coach Cochran works him into shape!

6′ 7″ and 400lb is a BMI of 45.

I realize BMI is meant for more or less normal people, not well conditioned athletes, but isn’t this a bit much?

Barrett Jones is 6′ 5″/300 which give a 36.

I wonder what their percent body fat is?
