Tyler Sims, a 6-2, 220 LB from Highland CC in Kansas has signed.

Plays with his hand in the dirt a lot. He knows how to rush the QB. Would like to see him in pass coverage

True, no coverage video at all, but we need pressure on the QBs and we certainly don't have 11 and 9 any more.  And obviously we know the LB depth is a huge issue, just ask Ice.

Anybody have a theory on why St. Eds sends players our way and St Igges doesn't?  Is my perception true or not?

This staff just has a good relationship with the coaches up at St. Ed's. DJ Thomas, Kyle Hegedus on the roster from there. Continues with Jackson.

Coach Chuck Kyle is probably one of the best High school coaches to ever coach the game and the most respected. There seems to be a trend with his players and where they go. Maybe it could be the Mooney and YSU connection..I just don't know, but it's not like we haven't tried to recruit their players over the years..Him and J.T. have always been good friends

Oh God, not another damn LB.  Doesn't everybody know we have far too many LBs already?
How's that Ice?  Apparently Bo thinks we could use another.  I happen to agree with Bo.
Welcome kid, you can play for me anywhere.  Too bad for Navy, I have a sweet spot for the academy's and the character of the kids they take and the men they turn out.

D J Smalls from SC

If I am reading this correctly, he came in a a true soph this year and will have 3 years to give us. They must be very high on him to grab a JUCO after only 1-year. That could be a really good sign for our recruiting in general.

They list him as class of 2020 which supports your specuation on years, but no indication if that is "good sign for recruiting in general" or indication of coach's opinion of DBs

Hard to say Go. Generally you have to be very high on someone to grab him after 1-year. I know that many big programs used to encourage academic issues to stay the second year at JUCO, so they can become soph's or even juniors and get a full 4-years in. Maybe that is not so common anymore, with many 4-year schools offering general studies. I say it will be a very good or poor move in the long run.

I also like the signing of young Chris Durkin. I must be showing my age, as it seems like just a few years ago when his dad was a star for the Guin hard-ballers and hard to believe he is old-enough to have a college-age son. I think he is still 2nd or 3rd highest draft pick at 79. Talent seems to be in the blood. Welcome to the team Chris!
