The UCLA defensive tackle told 2 different...

We desperately needed a fourth man on the two deep and Manny went out and got one of the best available on the portal. And this kid may be able to take one of the first team spots. What’s not to like?

No matter who we got he wouldn’t replace Willis. But the starting four should come close to being as good as the McIntosh/Norton/Bethel/Ford season of 2017.

Getting the VT DE Trevon Hill would make this offseason the equal to getting a #1 recruiting class. (Kennedy, Asa Martin, Bolden, Martell..so far) Not even sure if we are on him. I know he has basically been jumping around and waving at UM to see him on social media so there is definitely interest from his end. I think UCF is his other option.
 
Chigozie Nnoruka is serviceable as a DT, but we could use the immediate depth. He will be about the same level as Tito O. maybe a little less.

Horse****. If he was very good, he would not be transferring.

He already produced more than tito. In 2017 as a starter at ucla he had 46 tackles, 8.5tfls, and 2 sacks. That is better than tito has ever done and more than any DT on the current roster.
Trying to temper my enthusiasm....but yeah could be a huge move.
