    So you're telling me we still have a shot at those other recruits and that Eason is coming. Definitely helps the sting a bit

    I said Ngata was better when DDY was fluffing this guy, but I always knew he sucked. All he could do was run. No pass rush moves, not explosive on the line, stood straight up every play. Measurables were the only reason he was highly ranked. The only plays he looked good was when he would chase down a QB after he had nowhere to throw.

    I know I said the same exact thing about someone and Dennis gave me shit over it. I can't remember if it was this guy, but I guess it must have been.

    I never liked his film all that much, but would have loved for our coaches to had that chance with the athleticism. I still think he could have been very good under kwat.

    Johnson wasn't bad at all - he had 14 tackles, 5 TFL, 2 sacks, FF, FR in five games. He was going to be on the two deep for 2020. He had two seniors and Thibodeaux in front of him. He wanted to play TE, the future Hurricanes coach is letting him try it.

    Will DJ follow Cristo back to Miami?

    If I had the time, id go back and listen to your exact words on the TSIO pod regarding this player. I have a feeling it would convey the exact opposite of the feelings of this post.

    I'm sure it did from Dennis & Coker. In fairness to Teck, that wasn't his style on the pod.
