From the game logs it looks like this is a guy who only got to play in huge blowouts for a FCS program as a sophomore. I don't get it.

PJ didn't check the game logs? What a dope!

I guess we never know - sometimes few stats as a CB can be a sign of dominance. FCS stats can also be incompletely reported.

But he didn't win any all-conference honors, recorded no stats in their last couple games, and all his listed major-site stats were in their most lopsided games, indicating he's probably a 2nd teamer at a FCS school.

Between Tre'Von Jones and Ethan Robinson the last two years, I'm going to trust the staff to find a kid at a lower school that fits what they want to do.

He’s got good size. Hope he’s another gem!

I think it’s fair by you to point this out. Guessing the staff has some kind of connection with this kid and has seen him in workouts or something. Obviously the on field sample size seems too small to garner an offer.

Kinda shaky commitment being only 100%
Hope he's not just in for the free trip to the Mayo bowl

6’2”. Can’t teach tall. But not heavy enough to play in B1G yet. Depth/development add, I suspect.

Burns said he started 10 games this year.
