There's some kind of a backstory here. He graduated from high school in 2011, went briefly to Rockford College, didn't play football for three years before returning at College of DuPage, says he was homeless in 2013.

Homeless 2 years ago? Wtf? Hopefully cut from the Jimmy Butler mold...

Has anyone seen his highlights on HUDL? It's pretty much 95% blocking 5% catching/route running.

Don't judge a book by its HUDL video.

(not saying you did.)

If he was homeless he should be able to help panhandle for the Huskie Stadium renovations...

The perfect storyline for THE HARD WAY Huskies. Doesn't get much harder than homeless (if true)

I'd give NIU my savings if they came up with a fundraising campaign slogan along the lines of "panhandling to the top!"

Well that 95% blocking is pretty important in the offense
