I'd be shocked if Woods wasn't interested. GP's being very picky about LB's after this year in the Big 12, seems like the number one requirement is coverage ability and quickness.

With all the spread offenses, and the many drag patterns you see, linebackers are being double checked, speed wise. If you can't cover you can't handle the many spread formations in the Big 12. A drag pattern gave Mich State the TD they needed to win(over Frogs) and Okie State, others, cut big chunks of yardage because we couldn't run with backs, slots running crossing patterns.

Think Kahlee and many others would have been more highly recruited in years past. But if you can't run under 4.6 now, it may be hard to get noticed...Don't know his speed, but suspect it is 4.7 or so.

Two things I've noticed happening because of the spread. One, QB's need to be more mobile and fast. And two, linebackers are required to be fast and agile...

The old days of Butkus, slow footed big hitters, is over. Tom Landry was the first I saw expose Butkus, as he was way ahead of most offensive coordinators, in his day.. He was forcing Butkus to cover Garrison on passes, way back then.. He was way too slow. Cowgirls always ran up big scores on the Bears..

He doesn't fit our system. Not fast enough. He'd be a good defensive tackle if he could gain 60 pounds.

Hopefully the coaches will find a LB in the juco ranks or highschool that can contribute right away. Les Miles had an in-home visit with Duke Riley yesterday and takes an official to LSU this weekend. Something most La kids can't resist.
