Juco DT Joseph Townsend

[chuckd]

anyone know the years of eligibility on this guy?

4 to play 3, I believe

 

[Alex 4.0]

allright, I think i had read that somewhere else.... If that is true, it is a great deal. :bonez

 

[Always a husker]

Do you think he might possibly be able to make an imediate impact?

 

[BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA]

Rivals has him on the commit list as well. This is great news!!

I think that he will be in the rotation next year and could possibly start. It will depend on how he picks up the defense and if he can beat out Steinkuhler and others (I think Suh has the Nose Guard spot).

I don't think that these recruits will just jump in and start. There's a system to learn and get comfortable playing in. I hope for a better defense also but it won't have much to do with the new kids at first. Bowman was a 4 or 5 star and it took him almost the whole year to live up to the hype, but I'm with you Coz has the players coming back that should be ready to have an impact next year.

GBR!!!

maybe, maybe not......looking around the college ranks these days and you will see lots of freshman starting, even at the skill positions

They might not come in and be every down contributors but if they can come in and play nickel back, pass rushing lineman, or coverage linebackers that can excel in certain packages would greatly help the defense.

Why Not...It seemed to work for OU. They were one of the teams that started the most Fresh and Soph of any top 20 ranked team this year!
