Art Briles Says Baylor's 6'8" TE LaQuan McGowan Has 'Slimmed Down' to 403 Pounds

The good news is LaQuan McGowan has slimmed down significantly this offseason. The bad news is he's still the size of a logging truck.

Baylor head coach Art Briles dropped a terrifying progress nugget on the assembled press at Big 12 media days Tuesday. According to Fox Sports' Bruce Feldman, Briles said his 6'8" tight end has worked himself down to 403 pounds since season's end.

Love how Art Briles said LaQuan McGowan has "slimmed down" to get to 6-8, 403. The huge #Baylor TE will be a cult hero this season.

The scary thing is, Briles isn't being entirely facetious.
