Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
I remember BBK playing at ILB as a frosh. Why not Daniel Heimuli?
Of all of our recruits coming in I was perhaps most excited about Daniel Heimuli. His HS tape reminded me of BBK's... a little undersized but super athletic, crazy instincts, punishing hitter.
Kyler Manu is hard to watch out there.
He can't blitz. He's slow. He gets swallowed up all the time. He's bad at plugging holes. He not very athletic. He's kind of just a body in the field that at its best gets in the way?
I've heard Heimuli needs to "hit the weight room." But when you're this athletic and dish out this much punishment and our ILB is horridly weak... how do you not get a chance to play?:

This team is in a weird spot... lots of youth on D that need to grow together and I think Manu out there is a waste when Heimuli could be getting valuable time at a position where we're weak.
