I don't know much about the guy, other than he has produced at OSU, but those seem pretty indicative of what I've heard about him.

No everybody just hates TOSU, I get so tired of hearing everyone bitch about us. I have watched JL for 4 years, he is a very good MLB. If you are referencing the Northwestern game, he had a pick and I think 18 tackles, 5 for loss. He is twice as fast sideline to sideline as Rey Rey, and he is better in pass coverage. Sometimes he does have trouble shedding blocks, but it's not that often. I'm not taking anything away from Rey, he is a great player, but I think JL is better. He has been a starter for four years at a major program and he never get's hurt, Big 10 is smash mouth football, your going to be playing against run heavy offense's when it's cold and JL delivers punishment. I think JL is every bit as good as AJ Hawk was, JL is faster also.
