I agree its very hard to believe I would deff have to see it to believe it.
I've seen them lift under Tripplett before and he is a stickler for form and makes sure that they don't stand around. I had heard good things about the progress, but after seeing them in action I had no doubts about it being true. As for the 600 pounds, I never saw it, but the man that told me about it is a very straight shooter and he witnessed it. Then I read about it on here from someone else. That combined with how hard the kid works and how devoted he and his family are; there's no doubt in my mind that it's true.
Riepo man the Burg/West freshman game was maybe the only one I missed all year. From what I was told he had one heck of a game and West beat you out there. He tore or badly strained a ligament in his foot in that game that put him out most of the year and badly slowed him down for the rest. He started 2 of the last 3 varsity games (linebacker vs Burg) and had a real nice game, especially for a freshman. He's a dandy football player.
