Solid addition for MT here with Rosheem Collins. If you caught the piece I did on him prior to his visit, you knew MT was in a good position.

The Colorado offer definitely threw a wrench in the process for the coaching staff, but they made him a top priority and it paid off.

He'll be signing tomorrow.

He is the nephew of former OL Germayle Franklin who still lives in Murfreesboro. I'm sure that helped us out

Man Germayle REALLY stayed out of it on this one. I still can't believe they're related.

YES!!!!!!

Is that concerning that a former player wouldn't help us out or he did he just want it to be the kid's decision without family pressure?

I think he was probably just wanting to stay neutral, which I think is commendable. Don't get it twisted, though, Germayle bleeds blue.

Hefty Nose Tackle. Looking forward to him in blue next season

Looks like a good prospect at our most badly needed position. Need about 2 more as well.

Eagerly awaiting the papers on Collins. I'm always afraid some P5 team will swoop in with an LOI at the last minute.

So far, only 1 JUCO announced:

Wesley Bush, safety from Mississippi:

Amir Luckett's in as well. That was expected.

 

[C-Bow]

I wouldn't worry about Collins. UGA tried to get him to wait until January and he scoffed at that. Then Florida and Minnesota tried to jump in and he turned them away.

Seems like a solid recruit. Any idea if he preferred a particular coach?

 

[SmithO1906]

Here is to hoping these guys are passing their classes and can enroll next month. Remember what happened with Bing-Dukes last year

He actually spoke very highly of Will Redmond, the director of player personnel.

 

[Blueraider_Mike]

As long as Collins sticks, we only have 4 DT on the team

Collins 300lbs
Poydras, took a RS in 2016 - 300lbs
Manciel, F in 2016, played at 270 lbs
Nix, RS in 2016, 260 - be interesting if he can contribute.

At this point we do need to find another 2 DT, one JC player and a true F.

Thanks. It's usually someone they relate very well to. Kudos to Will.
