Awesome! Welcome addition! Here's the link. The write up has the Rocket winning the Heisman which he never did at ND. Last one was Tim Brown.

Curious as to why he didn't just sign? I thought that he can sign any day as we are past signing day and as he is projected to be part of the class of 2018. Maybe there is an issue making sure his classes will transfer and that he will be eligible at Wyoming in 2018? (just speculating)

A little research shows that he walked on at TCU as part of the Class of 2015 before leaving for the JUCO route. He was a Rivals 3* recruit in 2015 but that could have been supplemented by the name. He is small but it is apparent we need some immediate WR help so I'd expect he has a chance to compete for playing time. Looking forward to seeing him on campus and having his dad around the program wouldn't hurt either.

And maybe he adds to our return game.

Read somewhere he runs a 4.4 40.

His dad ran 4.28.

With that speed, maybe he can get some good separation and be open a lot.

Anyone know how many years of eligibility he has

I think he will have 3 years. He is listed as a freshman on this link for last season.
