Hype surrounding both players and Jake was heavily recruited and touted for those that remember. I believe he actually started either as a freshman or sophomore and flamed out, was moved to DE and eventually transferred to south Alabama where he enjoyed some success as a LB.

Only mention Jake because he had size and strength coming into the team; fairly similar measurable as Dax. He was also highly rated and the reason more teams didn’t pursue him was the blue bloods of college football didn’t raid va as much then as they do now because we had a strangle hold on it. And as the article stated the one weakness of Dax which was change of direction, ended up being Jake’s downfall.
