We really need some good football recruiting news. A lot of "Nothing" lately when it comes to football. Yeah, we have been hearing about players visiting, but no one has pulled the trigger yet.

this offer seems like a good pivot from Theis and Lofton (as is the Belleville kid). and can't discount the Nazareth angle
Tank could grow this kid into a nice sized LB
I would guess that is what the plan would be.
