I'd be buying my son a hooded parka too for the cold winters if that was my choice. But I get what your saying in regard to football reputation.

I suspect AU just does not have a scholarship to give but advised that if he does what he should do they will give him one in a year. Dont know that but would make sense. Anyway a very athletic guy who can help at the safety position. As to why Minnesota there are a number of south alabama area kids up there. Two from Murphy in the last four or five years i know of. Guess he got tried of rowing the boat..............................see how many get it 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good stuff. 4 years to play 3 and he doesn't count against the salary cap this year. That's my kind of transfer. I know he was not a starter but UM led the Big 10 in pass defense last year. Just playing with that group was good experience imo 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAG 33,794 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Can we expect him to see the field come fall? @ellitor Chime in if you would like. Walk on? Do we really need this guy if he can't even get a scholarship? Not a lot of sec offers. That is a concern for me He played for Minnesota. I don't know how well he can transition to SEC speed. 3 star? Watch him become a 2 star since they hate us because they ain't us. That covers most of it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corchjay 5,311 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Speed could be the concern but who says he doesn’t put on 10 lbs and play outside backer. Atkinson’s role. Can’t remember what coach Steele calls it. If that isn’t an option at least he provides depth and probably special teams player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlaskanFAN 1,665 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Well he will be a good example of the new redshirt rule. A player who has had a year of college ball. Now he needs some time to learn a new defense and will be able to provide some fresh legs for amen corner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
