Blake should look at Liam Danitz for a new edge rusher

Baker and Peoples need to at least look at this dude.
Hope College EDGE Liam Danitz just hopped in the portal and it’s a gamble i’m all in favor for. He’s 6’5 230 and is an All American sprinter ran 10.55 in the 100 and 20.92 in the 200. Like a somewhat slower defensive version of Nyck Harbor
He also had 21 TFLs and 15 sacks this year.
He already got offers from WVU, Cal, Utah, JMU, La Tech and now Michigan is sniffing around.
Worst case he is a situational speed rusher. Best case you turn him into a monster off the edge.
With how thin we are at edge why would you not take a shot on a freak like this?

Fast, quick enough to play the star?

Star would have too many responsibilities for him to try to learn. Get him stronger, teach him a few simple pass rush moves, put him in a wide 9, line him up in a sprinter stance, and let him go crazy.

Screw it. Why not? Bring him in.

At a minimum he would be a monster special teams coverage guy.

He probably wouldn't cost much.

He's a freak athlete

Little light in the pants to play edge in a 4-2-5. If he can stack on 10-15 lbs then I would feel better about him holding his own in the run game. That was the easiest way to take Harold Perkins out of the game was run right at him and make him make the tackle.

With his frame, you probably want to put some weight on him and play him at DE.
Posted on 1/13/26 at 5:53 pm to TigerChief94
Yes sir. Bring him in!
Posted on 1/13/26 at 5:53 pm to TigerChief94
It said lsu has contacted him.
Posted on 1/13/26 at 6:29 pm to TigerChief94
Edge yes, but with that speed put him at LB. could be B.Mingo 2.0?
Posted on 1/13/26 at 6:34 pm to ReverendJeffro
Yeah with our football and track programs this is a player we should be able to pull and could turn out to be a beast with high level coaching.
Posted on 1/13/26 at 7:24 pm to ReverendJeffro
You lost me. Mingo was an edge no? We played a 4-3. He wasn't a linebacker.
Posted on 1/13/26 at 8:23 pm to TigerChief94
Since Trindon Holliday never got his shot at DE, maybe this guy can.
Posted on 1/13/26 at 8:30 pm to TigerChief94
He’s a white Perkins who knows how to play football. Get him.
Posted on 1/13/26 at 8:41 pm to TigerChief94
First impulse would be to keep him at DE or LB but what if he could play wide receiver or slide into the secondary? That's ridiculous speed for his height
Hope College. Wow

I love finding these little nuggets from these small, obscure schools.
