2019 Grad Transfer from ND - LB DJ Morgan (Norwalk CA)

[RSTuthill]

My immediate reaction is, well, OK. But lets curb our enthusiasm at least until someone has seen him actually play in a college game. The memory of Ryan Fines is still fresh as well as the hope that he will be much more effective this year. (Back for one last year, right?)

Welcome to the Pound, DJ!

I don't know anything about this young man so I have know nothing of ability. I will not be concerned at his lack of play at ND
I do know he graduated in 3 years from ND so he has smarts, I know he played a little safety as a freshman so he has speed, I know he has decent size because the tape tells us and you know he comesfrom a winning tradition at ND
I see no downside but many positive things
My question is why UConn but rather than dwell on that all I have to say is:
Welcome to the DawgPound and let's go hit someone on the other side of the field
WELCOME DJ

At our best - big Motor City Bowl (where we first came out) & International Bowl - we had solid LBs all over the place. Plus Depth. Good fast DEs + loads of solid cover guys.

D. We need to be extraordinary on defense.

Another Yawin Smallwood?

I’d like that!

It can't be overstated what a shot in the arm this is for the fanbase. An immediate answer to a big area of need, with a high caliber, experienced player. Man, did we need this!

Geno is trying to upstage Edsall by landing the #1 recruit from the 2020 class on the same day. Baseball just cracked the top 25 rankings today as well.

Man, this is a good day for Husky Nation!!!

you just overstated it.

And then you do a double take and realize we are still in the AAC

Signed, sealed and delivered...

I say he's a plug and play (immediately) guy for us... sure, he struggled to see the field @ ND, but, face facts.. He was a 3 star recruit... going up against (more than likely) 4 and 5 stars, who blocked his way ... Here, with all that he's learned against, arguably, much stiffer competition, he should provide instant impact and help get our D rolling a little faster.. He probably already understands how to play fast.. especially in a scheme that uses what he is, a hybrid ( S/OLB )...
Excited about this acquisition to our squad...

Well let me put it this way: if folks think I'm "overstating" the fact that we just found a solid quality player to fill the most important position on the worst statistical defense in history... IN HISTORY!...well then I've got nothing left to say...
