Excited to see this guy, but still not getting my hopes up.
It takes 11 players to make a good Big 12 defense. Here's one. Tribune's another. I think Jordan Harris can be a player next year. And Cotton-Moya. Just need 7 more good players.

Cousin already has a shoulder injury that will likely require surgery. Garcia was injured, Trent got hurt in the last game (any word?). So, I suspect it's a little late to be praying for "no injuries".
Yes! Yes! Yes!
Huge news...huge momentum boost for recruiting and the program. Just no way to deny it. Gotta keep it going and get a few more guys that can contribute but this is probably the biggest recruit since Lazard.

I expect Mutcherson and CM to make a big jump next season just simply from having plenty of talent and now a year starting under their belts.
Added CM. Slipped my mind. Going to wait until late August before I count on Mutcherson, but he definitely has the chance to be big time next year.
Good call on Mutcherson.
Still not enough, but a few more key pieces (another DL, LB, and maybe a corner if a good one is willing to come), and next years D could be average. Doesn't sound like much, but that would be a huge improvement from this year.
I am really not sure. I know though he had an extra year to add 15-20 lbs. if he truly was switching to DT.
I just want to point out that for the guys ISU has sent to the combine the heights and weights have always been very close. I think height/weight inflation used to be a much bigger issue than it is now.
I've seen a lot more players that were actually heavier than their listed weight because they don't update enough.
If they are off I'm pretty confident they are only a quarter inch or so high.
I remember people making these arguments about Royce White and Diante Garrett and how this guy was 6'5 and Royce was only an inch taller than him so he couldn't be a legit 6'8. Turns out White measured exactly 6'8 at the combine and Garrett measured a full 6'5 at some senior invitational thing.
They wanted Ayeni to move inside. Depending on what depth ends up inside, and how Cousins, Trent, Aka, and Garcia develop maybe they'll have him play on the outside. He'd definitely be a guy who could move inside in 3rd and long situations.
You can't necessarily take much from a highlight tape, but watching his you can certainly see his speed and explosive first step standout. You don't see many ~290 pound men move that fast and that's not something that a highlight tape against poor competition makes up. Seems to be an exceptional athlete and potential could provide some good inside pass rush.
Next year's d-line situation should be improved. If we can find a way to contain the running game, we are looking a potential 3rd down pass rush group of Pierson, Tucker, Ayeni, and Taylor which is actually a fairly strong group in terms of getting heat on a quarterback.

Re: Desmond Tucker Commits
With a list like this why did he come here? He certainly gave up being on a winning team by passing up on a lot of those other schools.
