Really?  Or is it that this same player and his signing would have been skewered by a majority of posters on this same board 2 years ago.  What's the only difference between then and now?

This guy played in the football hotbed of Georgia and only had D-III offers coming out of high school.  After going JUCO for 2 years he has no P5 offers besides SU.  The reality is if he wasn't a mid-year enrollee he wouldn't be on scholarship right now and wouldn't be playing on the team in the fall.

And yes, I do want it to work out for him because if it does then its good for the program.  Why can't we say he's a depth signing with some maturity and we hope he can contribute in the rotation moving forward.  Any more than that doesn't make sense unless you actually believe he passed through every other P5 programs radar and landed in our laps due to our great coaching staff and their magical ability to evaluate players differently than everyone else in high D-1 football.  Do you believe that?
