UNLV OG/OT Justice Oluwaseun transfers to Miami

[WestGA'Cane]

I wouldn't say excellent.. he's a good G5 starter against low level Competition. Question is will that translate to Power 5

Looked physical - playing a lot of tackle, but as you said the competition..will it translate? Guess Coach Justice thinks so.
What was impressive was his awareness - recognizing adjustments that his OL needed to make AND pointing it out & making calls. As well as the follow through on the adjusted assignments. Encouraging. Guessing the strength and work ethic is there too, based on the lifting video. Some of the So.Fl. o-linemen in the program should take notes.

PFF Graded him as a 78.9 in 2020.

If only there was another better option at Offensive Guard in the transfer portal that PFF rated in the 90's and was still available. This is "Madden"ing !

Obviously a Coach Justice connection. Gotta trust he knows what he’s getting.

Tbh were not sure if Madden wouldn't even come here. He's an Ohio Kid and going from that to Miami could be a culture shock. But if he was interested and we passed on him for Justice then that's a Big L

I said his is excellent on TAPE. On TAPE, he plays against Gof5 teams. I didn’t say he is an excellent player. I wouldn’t know that until he competes for a spot & has a chance to perform against P5 teams in our schedule. He is a quality pickup however.

 

[Canesfan1899]

Irrelevant. Just stating I would have rather had him

I mean it kind of is relevant.

 

[TheOriginalCane]

I can't believe we took a backup guard in the portal unless he's walking on. This doesn't make any sense

You're right, this kid isn't good enough to start for your Alabama boys.

 

[Da Jumbo Mutombo]

After this year we will lose:

Donaldson
Gaynor
Schaife
J. Williams
Zion (very possible)

Thats a lot of experience to replace.

Welcome to The U

 

[krashlite1975]

Gaynor and Scaife will still have another year of eligibility but you have a good point overall

 

[krashlite1975]

How is it down to 22? Brown and Oluwaseun, that takes it to 23.

Jacurri too

 

[CaneBear0207]

Jacurri too

Lol, of course. Thank you.

 

[Mackmiller974]

Is he coming in as a guard or tackle? 6’3 325 lbs but mostly played tackle at UNLV

Probably both

 

[nycane]

Gaynor and Scaife will still have another year of eligibility but you have a good point overall

Gaynor isn’t really a loss

 

[L A M P]

Who did we beat out for his commitment? This usually tells a bit more without having to assume (not always).

 

[grover]

Given what we have behind Donaldson and Rivers (and an injured Clark), I entirely understand the take. To me, MLB is the house on fire issue. But OG is definitely a secondary need and he's the highest rated OG in the portal right now.

Welcome to the U!

 

[CT Cane 44]

He's better than Gaynor. Look we need big powerful bodies on the inside. A battle between Olu, Donaldson, Scaife and Rivers would set up nice at guard. Seymore, Jai Clark and Gaynor at center. Nelson LT and Walker RT(?) or Campbell.

I like McLaughlin as well

 

[Maskoff407]

Miami just okay with being mediocre.

 

[Fightinibis]

We need good guards with the power to move d-tackles and the feet to reach line backers. If he can do that let’s bring him in.

When is that going to start happening?
