    A) I think it's wise to take these measurements with a grain or two of salt.
    B) I would imagine an 18-year-old entering a serious weight-training program might be able add a few pounds.

    What would the SEC do with him?

    The athletic cornerback chose Indiana over offers from Nebraska, Pittsburgh, Michigan State, Rutgers, Kentucky, Louisville, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Syracuse, TCU, Bowling Green, Central Florida, Florida Atlantic, Middle Tennessee State, Southern Miss, Temple and UAB.

    I don't know a lot about him. My guess is that he'd be a nickel corner and a special teams guy

    Well his older brother is a CB for Clemson. And I think I also read that Lamar Jackson is a cousin. Appears to come from a good gene pool.

    His older brother is 6'2" 190 lbs. He was the #2 CB in the country coming out of high school.

    Have you read/heard about the new trainers that were brought onto IU staff? They sound like they are working wonders with the athletes and could really be an advantage for the Hoosiers over some other squads of similar talent levels. Nice to see them on the front edge of player development, unlike another team that wears Red.

    Yeah I've seen that. I don't see myself as cynical, but 20+ years of weekends spent with IU and the Bengals will do that to a man. And 18 years prior watching UC and the Bengals, for those keeping score, I left being a UC fan almost the minute they became a watchable football program.

    The "trainers are working wonders' ring a little bit like "the players coming into training camp in the best shape of his life" story to me.

    That said, it is nice to see IUFB using any avenue out there to gain an upper leg on the competition. IU works at so many natural disadvantages compared to the rest of B1G East, it's nice if they can give themselves even the slightest edge, for however long it lasts.

    Meh, IU has steadily through the years improved their facilities which includes training. They just need to turn the corner on the field...and being in the B1G East hampers that.

    Especially happy for J-Shun Harris after all he’s been through. A valuable weapon, for sure.
