per Joe:
Before coming to play for the Gophers, Cody Poock and Merrick Jackson were defensive teammates at Iowa Western Community College, just across the river from Omaha, in Council Bluffs, Iowa.
This spring, Jackson is in camp with the Gophers, a junior listed at 6-2, 320 pounds.
"He’s lost a lot of weight," Poock said. "That’s a tribute to him because he would play one or two snaps and have to come off the field in JUCO. He’s gotten in shape and he’s going to be good."
How good?
"A guy with his size and his strength, and his work ethic will be scary," Poock said. "Once he gets the defense down, going the right way, getting his steps, playing with consistency, it’ll be scary what he’ll be able to do."
