Good news =D^

Guessing a transfer - which usually takes us a day or so to figure out who

I was thinking high school kid since it is TRC18, but you could be right if it is a dropdown who has to sit out a year.

Actually I think you are right! Didn't notice the TRC18! Probably an out of state high school kid!

Looks like he has great field awareness and speed! Great looking prospect!

He seems like a Sam linebacker to me - sorta what Mac Bignell played. Choate seems to want guys who can play multiple positions and Onte seems like a SS/LB type to me

I don't know much about him, but we offered him way back in April which makes me think he is a stud

He does remind me of him a little for sure. A little undersized but versatile linebacker. Hope he comes in ready to work because 'tweeners' like him can be tough mismatches in the Big Sky

My thoughts exactly, he has very good tackling form and pad level for a high schooler. Has good speed, he puts on a little weight I think he has the potential to be a great OLB.

Hope we can hang on to this kid, he's a human highlight reel.
Great ball skills, awareness, and speed.
