    I think this is more telling us that ipm is not coming perhaps? Either way it will be interesting.

    I thought he was Azeem's future replacement.
    The twitters lead you to think he is still coming. The pro tbs'ers say he is likely asu. Who knows?

    I think he would be more of an outside linebacker but I could be off. He has great hips so just get him in the Field.

    I think IPM will be a LB in our D if he comes. And god I hope he does.

    I agree with Coker in that I think this is about getting some extra depth at DB.

    The kid is a baller. Best recruit in Utah's history I think.

    DB U.

    Keep lake to take over in 10 years.

    Pete becomes AD.

    Assuming Lewis and/or Walker get put on a slow boat to China medically retire, sign him up!

    He is a California DB who is leaving the state, why wouldn't he want to play for Lake on this defense?

    I also love that every single 247 Crystal Ball prediction was for him to commit to USC. Really reinforces the value that the experts deliver for your $10.95/month.

    It's not that I want to get rid of him, it's that if he were to retire/grad transfer, I wouldn't be upset. He plays on special teams some and is on the depth chart. He played in every game this season in some capacity and notched seven tackles and one forced fumble. So he has contributed something, but not much. He is a replacement level player, in the parlance of baseball stat nerds.

    This Johnson kid looks like an amazing cover corner. I would be fine with landing him regardless, but it makes even more sense if there is attrition in the DB room.

    He may be frontrunner for next season's Tani Tupou "Why is this guy still on the...Whoa! Holy shit!" Award
    At Least he is not J. Lindquist. Walker actually see the field and is good contributor on ST.

    I like him better than IPM
