I'd rather he redshirt. Coach said his task right now is to wait his turn. Lots of good players in front of him.

Honestly with a 3 man front who does he split minutes with? Enyi, Singleton and Lee are more than capable. HB is super young for a freshman, his time will come. Coach Rasheed has been really high on Tyler Onyedim in interviews too.

Nobody is too raw to not get at least a few minutes of playing time in the Kansas game.... especially on the DL. Just have him go in and overpower the guy in front of him get to the QB.

I just think there's gotta be something else going on.... either dinged up some, or in the doghouse at the moment.

How do you consistently have the dumbest takes? It’s impressive actually.

Are the other 50-60 guys who didn't play in the doghouse too? Did Bauman get snaps at QB? if not he must be in the doghouse right? You read to far into things.

It is very rare for someone who isn't in the 70 player travel squad to play, even against a ****** team like KU. The 70 is usually made of the 1's, 2's and some 3's (some position groups require more backup than others such as QB's and WR's). Most of the times in those games it is better to get the 2's more reps than it is to give a 3 or 4 some reps because chances are the 2's are going to actually need to have reps under their belt at some point this year.

Confirmed Brown in the dog house.

I gotta imagine there's some element of a guy that size going in totally cold to play limited snaps probably isn't great either.
