Eric Cobb looks different

[Kenny11]

Yeah he's straining,while the other guy lifts. Wats up with dat?

Don’t know but from the clips of the summer practices it seems like over the top cheering and encouraging and positive howling is a part of the Hurley experience. So maybe Cobb is just pumped that Carlton is moving 135 so well.

Looks like he's lost a lot of weight. Ben Simmons 2.0 baby!

This is no less than an amazing transformation. The effort and discipline required by Eric to make these physical changes in this amount of time is truly impressive. Congratulations Eric, hope you have a breakout year. Bleed Blue!

Is he a junior or senior?

 

[Da_Aisijimo_Gou]

Yeah he's straining

On the other hand, trying may beat minimal effort. Go with the positive

 

[TheChamps990411]

Dayumn!!! Can we get Carlton looking like that?!!!

No reps off.

There’s a joke about busting nutz somewhere in there but I don’t want to get banned

Seems like an unnecessary cheap shot.
You don't know that it's 135.
Why make that comment?

I commend him on losing all the weight, he looks to be in great shape for running up and down the court, he doesn't exactly look all that muscular though.

He may have strength underneath. He still have the skill of a 300lb human. Hr wont ever be cut like CV or wilson because of that

Got himself 2 Likes.

If he keeps on losing weight, he'll have to change his name to Eric Stringbean

 

[Burnsbros23]

This is great. He could definitely have a big role with this group.

 

[mauconnfan]

If he can transition his mental game like his body I believe he could make quite the impact. Just body and guard people in the lane, know he’s not a PG but still not afraid to use his dribbling and passing skills from his position and rebound the crap out of the ball. We may have something.

I don't think either of these two is Eric Cobb.

Really? Look at the tattoos.

Jeeez I wish I could look “not all that muscular”

 

[Huskybass]

I think it is Cobb standing. He is thinner and has lots more ink now.

 

[superjohn]

We still have people trying to figure out who Cobb is in the picture or if either of them are actually Cobb. This board never disappoints.

 

[UconnU]

Remember early last season when Cobb looked great in practice even started the first few games then kind of tailed off, got suspended, and fell out of favor with KO? I think that had a lot to do with his conditioning. This season that shouldn’t be a problem. I think he’s a great fit at the 4 spot. This picture just may be our starting front court.

It’s Cobb his body looks great. Hopefully it translates to the court. Certainly a lot better then him being 330. Theirs plenty of minutes open for bigs maybe he takes more then we originally thought.

You know DJ2, we have to remember not to compare ourselves to Superjohn - it's an unrealistic, unattainable body type. Like women with models in magazines.
Remember, compared to SuperJohn standards, Cobb is not all that muscular.

Does nobody see the E C tats on each bicep...?

But yeah he clearly leaned out and that’ll make everything and even his face look different, but also his complexion looks totally different in this new pic, skin looks way lighter

Not sure what/why he feels the need to be screaming something at that exact moment but that doesn’t help either

No, I do not.

Maybe Josh Carlton changed his first name to Edmund.

 

[gtcam]

Yeah, that is why there are a lot of comparisons to him and JC.

There aren't a lot of people like JC - plain and simple
Frank Martin is certainly not one but I like his feistiness and his take no prisoner attitude
I agree it was a nice touch that he recognized Cobb for his scholastic achievement
Way to go Eric!!!
