DE Javontae Jean-Baptiste (transfer to Notre Dame)

[WiseBuck]

Heard Nebraska is going to a 3-4 Defense and JJB is being recruited as a OLB in their scheme.

JJB is very thin and not as big as advertised as he would have been a major major project in the weight room that would have taken quite a bit of time.

If he puts on 30 pounds he would be an animal though... If he wouldn't be ready this next season I'm not so sure it would do much good to get his commitment. We need now players for this next season at DE and if he can't be ready for this next season we are better waiting and selling (2-4) big time kids on replacing Bosa.

Seems to be trending away from us and it's probably more fair to JJB anyways because he just wouldn't be ready this next season.

Hoping all isn’t lost here but do understand he’s trending away. Looks like a great prospect.

If Nebraska is going to use a 3-4 scheme like @WiseBuck stated, then it makes sense for him to go there. He fits better in that scheme, than playing DE in a 4-3 right now, imo.

Sincerely wish him the best; I hope he does well there except for when he's completely neutralized by our boss offense.

Nebraska was at 91% crystal balls at 9:00 o'clock this morning, Buckeyes at 52% crystal balls at 10:20 AM. Like I've said elsewhere, this has been a crazy recruiting season.

Yeah this recruiting cycle has been nuts. So many twists and turns.

Uhhh

 

[ShowMeBuck]

It’s funny how everything fits together. I wondered if he really was in play still given the Oats, Thomas stuff and open spots etc.

Brian Dohn is the guy who has had his thumb on the pulse of this recruit since Oct. If he's making the prediction, it's probably as solid as they come.

At this point do you think Urban sits back and lets schools think they have a legit shot then just stands up goes all LOLNOPE?

If not, it just really seems that way sometimes.
