JUCO DB Will Jackson III [Nebraska- Signed LOI]

[MyBloodIsRed16]

Don't really like how he tackles but he is good in coverage.  He has good feet and is patient when receivers are making moves.   If its between the 6'3 corner we have that doesn't cover or tackle and a 6'3 corner that can cover very well and can barely tackle, I'll take the latter

I would be pleasantly surprised if he contributed much on the field this year. Hard to come in this late as a JUCO and adjust, even with previous FBS experiences.

I'm not disagreeing with what you are saying. It's worth noting though that Lavonte David and Randy Gregory both showed up just a few days before fall camp started.

Not sure why anyone would have a problem with this unless there are other obvious jucos or grad transfers we could get instead of him. He only has 2 years of eligibility, so if he's awful it's not a big deal.

I find it more likely Frost and his coaches know how to evaluate talent.

There's also the decent chance he ends up being, you know, good....

Sounds like the Watkins boat had sailed, good job by the staff adding a body.

 

[ScottyIce]

If we are being honest, not really impressive at all. 

If we are trying to convince ourselves otherwise, it's through red tinted shades. 

Mostly meant it as a tip of the cap to the kid for getting offers from guys who “know” defense.

Biggest corner we've had since SJB, look forward to seeing what he can do.

You do realize that Lamar Jackson is 1 inch shorter....I'm sure that will make all the difference in the world?

Lamar's poor play probably has less to do with his physical ability and more to do with his mentality in preparation and competition. Coach Fisher was quoted last week as saying he doesn't need another entitled 5-star California DB, he already has one.

So I can't be interested in seeing what this kid brings because Jackson is about the same height and has disappointed?
