Are we expecting him to be a player next season?
I've wondered this too. He seems to be the forgotten man. I think he was in the rotation early in the year but fell out. From what I understand he's got great hands. I wonder if his speed was affected by his knee injury.
Seems like there will be plenty of opportunity for him next year with Morrow and Bear gone to get more in the mix, looking forward to seeing that.
did something happen to him?
Just hard to bust that 2 deep with Bear, Morrow, Gray, & Brown all ahead of him. He'll have his shot starting in spring practice.
He tore his acl his senior year of high school I thinkQuote:

Have some faith.Quote:

Fred is ahead. I think AJ will be above Jackson day 1. He hasn't shown anything yet.Quote:

We disagree on this 1. AJ steps on the field 1st play as a starter against South Alabama.Quote:

I've only been longtime family friends with one of the kids and his decision maker, but I've stayed away lately, because last I was told was pretty concrete terms.
Yeah he said something like good game chump, I think.Quote:

It doesn't matter if he beats out anybody (which I think he can).....If we had to promise him he starts day 1 to get him to State, I want to see his ass out there as the starter on day 1, ha.Quote:

AJ may be the second coming of Jerry Rice, but there's no way as a true freshman he's better than the 3 guys ahead of him. Plus we all know how Mullen does things. Even *if* AJ is one of the best 3, the experienced guys will start.Quote:

That's silly. You play the best people. If you are about "hard work"- you reward those that earn it even if they are freshmen.Quote:

Beating out Gray who has been here a season and 2 Springs is gonna be hard for him to do by the 1st Saturday of SeptQuote:
