Mike Jones is who.

Former Clemson LB. Graded as 4th best LB in power 5 by PFF. LSU now has him and the number 1 Juco LB coming in.

Australia has 48 million kangaroos and Uruguay has 3.5 million people so if the kangaroos invaded Uruguay then each person would have to fight 14 kangaroos

Thank goodness.. #18 was manhandled by olines and took bad angles, also he isnt a run stuffer.. We need better linebacker play our secondary will be fine

You know full well some people won't pull their weight and others will have to fight more than 14.

But I doubt the kangaroos will be armed with guns, unless of course Mick Dundee sides with the kangaroos.

Just passing time until baseball starts. TD can be boring when no real sports are going on.

Mike is a solid player and a great guy to have in the locker room. However, he’s not gonna win you a game. He was losing reps to Trenton Simpson, and with the addition of some highly rated LBs in our 2021 class, he likely saw the writing on the wall.

Looks like a great coverage guy and an abysmal run defender/tackler.

Rank out of 192 P5 LBs
53.6 Run Defense Grade (#142 out of 192)
33.3 Tackling Grade (#188 out of 192)
69.0 Pass Rush Grade (#60 out of 192)
90.2 Coverage Grade (#1 out of 192)

Per PFF he had 16 tackles and he missed 13 tackles. That's.........yikes.

Sounds like this addition won't help those issues.

Reserve linebacker who averaged 2 tackles a game.

I think the ceiling is 12-0 and the floor is 10-2.

Our schedule is the easiest it’s been in years.
Florida
Auburn
Texas AM
Are all taking step backs.

And Bama is Bama so that will be a tuff game. I like our chances.

Isn’t Trenton Simpson the next great star there? So I mean can’t fault em for leaving. Apparently he doesn’t wanna split time. And wants to be the full on starter. At LSU he will be.

If he was truly that bad why he is graded 4th best overall? And the Best LB in the ACC.

I'm literally reading you the grades from the same website. You can ask them how they mesh all that together for an "overall grade" I guess, but that's where he ranks in each category.

No you just got a safety that can't cover wr's or tackle.
