Football picks up a grad transfer

Good pick up..he’s really fast off the edge and could work well in GPs system on the weak side. We need a guy who can get after the passer. I don’t think he’s the kind of player that is a lock to start here so we should temper our expectations. But you never know

at the least he is someone who has actually played on the defensive front in college football which is rare among the frogs at that position.

jackson has played in 32 games with 7 starts so this isn't a guy who sat out for the most part of three seasons recovering from a gun shot or a high school prospect who sat out a season

he has played, done some good things, and brings some athletic ability to a position the frogs need productive bodies.

there has also been the thought that the frogs will play some 3 man fronts this year and if that is the case jackson and workman both have played that stand up position

also noticed on the roster that earl barquet is listed again as a defensive end. some thought earl would grow into a defensive tackle and was listed inside last year as he red-shirt, but on the new frog roster he is listed as a de.

Was I supposed to type something here?
Do we have anyone on the roster who can be the stump in the middle of the d-line? Ends are nice and all, but stopping the run now and again would be good.

bethley and cooper have done some good things and then there are some interesting prospects

george ellis needs to step up or get passed by the younger players.

young guys inside soni misi who red-shirted after playing four games, filikitonga who has filled out to 300+ and was hurt at the start of the season and played in the last four games, sorrells who was highly regarded coming out of florida, and patrick jenkins coming out of new orleans
