Wait, was he a JUCO or a transfer? If transfer, did he already do his sitting out?

He started a few games at OSU as a true sophmore. Played immediately. Yeah he'll start. He's reputed to have a motor like Youri Yenga but now has the physical bulk to handle the position.

2006: Got the start in four games and played in 11 ... Ended the season with 14 tackles ... Had three tackles in consecutive games against Florida Atlantic and Houston ... Had two tackles for six yards in losses against FAU, including a sack, and was credited with a half-sack at Kansas State.

2005: Played in four games as a true freshman and made three tackles ... Had two tackles, including one behind the line of scrimmage, against Texas A&M.

that's why I gave Phil Bennett some credit-this has been in the works for about half a year. He got thrown off the OSU team and had to make up some credits at a local community college. Didn't play JUCO football though.

According to his HS coach he has all intentions of coming here. These two keep in touch. The d-coordinator tried to get Gundy to keep him but Gundy and his ego wouldn't do it. This would be a huge pick up.

He was dismissed before the 2007 season so he would be eligible this coming season as a senior. Sounds like all his legal troubles were minor and resolved. Wonder what team rules he broke to get kicked off the team.

Correction, he would have two years left since he did not red shirt. You have 5 years to play 4 and he has used up 2 playing and one sitting out.

this would be a great development. The defense needs an athlete like this so bad.
