Composite high 4*, rated a 5* by scout, top 50 nationally, one of the biggest recruits to come out of Hawaii, played dt in the big 12 pass happy league where dt's don't make all of plays,provides adequate depth on the d-line. Is there anything else you want to know????!

He played on an awful "defense" with probably zero coaching getting him better.

Wait until O gets ahold of him and he could be a monster next year.

Best defensive player, drew lots of attention and double teams.

Never a bad thing to have defensive line depth. Especially experienced d line depth.

The bigger question is "why Texas Tech"? Literally could have played anywhere in the country.

I understand the OPs concern.

He had no talent around him. He was double teamed on every play. He goes to LSU where he has deep talent around him and the double teams go away. He starts making more tackles and goes to the NFL the same year that he would have had to go if he stayed at Texas Tech. Plus he will make more money due to increased performance.

You really can't judge an interior DL by tackles and sacks.

He's a big body with a starting pedigree in a P5 conference, and will add immediate depth. And if he didn't choose us he'd have chosen Auburn or Georgia.

Should be obvious why this was a nice pick up.

He probably wasn't being developed to play at the next level so he wanted to come to a real DL university where he could be developed into a premier DL...he's got the tools...TT just didn't develop/use him right. Smart kid to realize that.

Do I start the Valentine-like hype this season or next season?

With age and experience, we're hoping that he stops taking plays off. If he does that, he'll be up there with the best.

Highly ranked coming out of high school, was a 5-star on one of the recruiting sites. Dominated against elite competition at the Opening in Oregon.

His interview this morning will answer your question though.

And yet I'd be willing to bet that you'd be on here bitching about Jenkins and O if he chose Auburn or UGA.

Big 12 is lousy with air raid offenses. Bad news for interior d linemen.

That's why he is here.

ETA: that means a ton of shotgun, short reads, very quick passes, and almost no power running.

Can't really build a resume as a DT facing that every week.
