AJ Klein reminds me of Nik Moser

Anyone else see it? Granted, Moser was a safety (although he started as a linebacker) but they're both blue-collar players that can hit hard and just seem to have an eye for the ball.

He reminds me a lot of an underrated line backer we had last year actually. The guy just is always making plays.

Think bigger.

AJ will be up for serious awards before grads.

Hands down better than Moser.

**cyrocksmypants** · 10-02-2010, 09:54 PM

Let me clarify, I'm not saying in terms of ability, I'm saying in style of play.

This and he's only going to get better with more experience.

They are both athletic and white? Seriously, Moser was a great athlete but a bad player. I think Klein will be a solid player for us for the next 2 years. All I remember from Moser was him being able to chase anyone down from behind. Because he got lost in coverage and had to chase them down after a monster gain. He looked like the ISU version of Tom Zbikowski.

Let's remember that Moser was a safety, and a lot of times they are chasing guys down because someone else messed up.

Klein abilities far exceed getting hung with the old blue collar label.

**cyrocksmypants** · 10-02-2010, 10:27 PM

Well my apologies. Didn't know there was so much hate for Moser. I always thought of him as a pretty stand out Cyclone, and that's saying something because I hated him when I had to play against him while he was at Ft. Dodge.

Klein plays better when he gets hurt. He went down last week and then came back with a pick, and this week he got injured and came back with another pick. AJ Klein is the MAN!!
