And this is y most have been hollering for Nik to be recruited as well.
Nah. Just like chatfield hes definitely not a lb (atleast initially) hes a project & itll take time to coach him up. Well need and im sure get some linebackers that are game ready.
Would you have passed up on Ryan Shazier? He played DE in high school.
You've got to be kidding me here. This has nothing to do with the fact that he also plays de or multiple positions. This has to do with him and his skill set and if its ready to help the team now. As i said in the exact statement you quoted. "It'll take time to coach him up. " that time right now we don't have due to the positions lack of depth. Im not doubting wether or not **** eventually be a good linebacker or even p5 ready. I wish him the best. But hes not or answer & if you think he is I'm sorry but ill stick to disagreeing.
Relax with the feelings, bro. I just asked you a simple question.
The same thing could've been said about Ryan Shazier. "He played DE in high school, he'll take time to develop."
Why does he need to help the team right now? We're not dying at LB. Our LB corp will be Sophomores and Juniors next season. By the time Bonitto hits the field he should be a RS Freshman or Sophomore, no?
You want a LB that's ready to step in and contribute on defense ASAP, as a Freshman? Not only is that rare but it's not even neccassary when we have 3 cemented Sophomores and some talented Freshman right now.
This True Freshman stud that you desire...
Who's he going to take reps from next season?
