Finally some momentum on the recruiting front!
6'5 and 310 seems huge for an incoming guy, even a lineman. Is he gonna be competing for a spot from day one or will be redshirt like most freshman who play football?
If he's switched to DL, he'll play (if not start). As an OL, things are fuzzier. Hope he's redshirted, but if he forces the issue...
Do any other recruits have decision timelines? I think we said on here Carmoni Green was at the end of the month. Anyone else we know of?

We are going to need more then just him at DE in this class. We are losing 3 seniors Smoot Phillips, President off this team for next year.
We need at least 3 DE ps in this class.

Is Michigan State the main competition for him?
Landing O O would really start the ball rolling for the defense. All 3 of the guys really impressing me as difference maker so far on offense. O O would be the first on defense line with a handful more we are still in the game on another handful on the back 7.. There are also probably a hundred tapes I have not seen yet of uncommitted to go over as well. By the way I have not seen our in state linebackers Mondesir I believe is the name. He is the only commit I have not watched tape.
mondesir runs a 4.5 at lb rush de\lb he's got great speed but horrible tackling technique
The good news is it's much easier to teach tackling technique than it is to teach speed .
Lovie believes in getting raw talent and molding it . There is some truth to it. A guy with great tackling skills doesnt mean much if he can't catch up with the ball carrier .

If he can run like that any chance he bulks up a bit to be the MLB? That type of speed in Lovie's system is want made Urlacher so special.
