I like it. Need depth there and you get a guy who fits the “hungry with something to prove” mold.

True. They will all sound the same.

Oh no, not another DB from Nichols state again.

He was a finalist for the Jerry Rice Award (FCS Heisman)as a freshman so apparently he’s not just some scrub. Hopefully he’ll provide some reliable depth.

Best freshman, not overall. That’s the Walter Peyton Award.

Great. Completely fine with it as long as it’s not a full ride like the other D-2 guys we’ve taken.

A DB with 11 TOLs in 7 games is an interesting stat.

This is how you test yourself, walking onto DBU when you were on scholarship at Nicholls. That takes guts. Let's see how he developes.

biglego•35 months

No shite. The man wants to be a tiger and compete at that level and is willing to put it on the line and forego his scholarship. Have to respect that.

AtlantaLSUfan•35 months

This is an amazing get. A serious player without using a scholarship.

2003tigerfan•35 months

We need guys that can play special teams too

Doby•35 months

Guys like this is great for our culture. Young man has impressive stats and decided he wanted to walk on and compete. You think he wants it? May not start but will certainly push the group and make the team better. IMO, this is a great addition. I hope he eventually gets a scholarship.

Didn't we get a cornerback from there last year...but, I don't recall him ever getting in a game and I forget his name...I hope this one not only gets in the game but does very well.

Darren Evans got in the Miss St.game and was immediately burned for a 40 yard td pass on the very next play.

Some players get overlooked in high school and end up going to smaller schools like Nichols. The same way some players get overhyped in high school and end up at a big-time program when they really belong at a school like Nichols. Sometimes players improve drastically in their first year or two in a college program as well.
