Always have wondered if he would play and if a 4*:ranking was appropriate.
Dude looks like an nfl lb. Geez he's all over the place. Seems to hit hard, and his technique when rushing is veryyy good for a lb. Can cover te, rbs in the flats.
Let's hear it for Mike Jones who? Mike jones jr ??

Mike is certainly playing at a very high level...You may be a bit premature on his coverage skills tho...Most obvious passing downs..3rd and longs in particular, we have been seeing a lot of Goodrich, Booth, and Jones playing the nickel back....If there were an area where Mike needs to improve it would definitely be is coverage skills...But we have been spoiled is recent years at that position so its a little unfair for him lol...He will get better

Megadittoes Coronamav!
Simpson, Williams, Allen, Pace, Booth, and a host of others are all following the same ‘path’ as former Tigers like O’Daniel, Gallman, Ferrell, et.al. who didn’t ‘explode onto the scene’ (like Lawrence - and Big Dex, Murphy and more).
The future definitely looks bright!
GO TIGERS!!!

this year that have resulted in some big chunk plays (and one score) for our opponents. Would like to see him get that fixed and yes, I believe he will be star.

the Pro level. They think the kinetic energy from just hitting the ball carrier will take them down. That is sometimes the case, but more often, not.
