Title: Rumoured BOOM
Post by: PirateVOL on May 03, 2021, 03:35:58 EDT
LB Juwan Mitchell from Texas (62 tackles last year as a FR) rumoured to be a VOL later this month
AP says he most likely will just show up on campus some time this month as he is not into social media
If true, a huge get and would provide desperately needed support at ILB

Those I trust believe it's happening, but those I trust also believe it's not really a "boom".  He's a solid talent, but not really boomage worthy.

Have you seen our roster? A warm body is boomage worthy.

Yep...the way our linebacker position is in right now a Colton Jumper type would be welcomed.

He reportedly led Texas in tackles last year...  That's... Not "nothing"

How many years does he have left? Heard he played 2 years in JUCO?

Not disagreeing with you at all.  We need bodies, and if they can play at all it's a bonus. 

But I am see some on social media talk about him like he's the second coming of Mike Singletary.   

Just trying to temper expectations.  Tutu was supposed to have been all world, too, you know.

Never said he was nothing.  Just not "boom" worthy.

Here's what I based my opinion on, by the way. 

Heard a Texas beat writer yesterday say that he's a really good prospect, but he is a feast or famine type guy.  He makes a lot of tackles (pretty much equal number of solos and assists), but he also seems to ole and give up big plays as much as he makes tackles.  His numbers look better than his results.  And the Texas writer wasn't sour grapes at all.  He was disappointed to see him go. 

Hopefully he learns to be more feast than famine.
