ISM is our best returning LB and it’s not even close. Funa is 2nd, Niu is 3rd. But those are far behind him, other than Troy Dye he was our best LB and his tape speaks for itself. I don’t think he’s slow, in Avalos’ system Troy was allowed to blitz and roam more often while ISM had an interior edge to set and a zone to cover. I bet we do something similar where ISM gets a box and the other ILB gets coverage and blitz duties.
This is a little depressing to read. Really hopeful that at least one of Johnson and Jackson can move up that depth chart. Both seemed to have such promise when they first came to Oregon.

What's the deal with Ge'mon Eaford these days?

Update related to LBs: As speculated from his twitter bio change, DJ Johnson will be playing TE this spring.
